I am doing alright. I had trouble sleeping last night,cause I was nervous about the test I have to get done tomorrow,but I did not do any SI last night. That is great. I just got done cleaning the apartment,so I am going to do things that are positive for me. My boy-friend will be over later. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be just fine. I will be back on later. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:

Hi Candy, I hope tomorrow goes well for you, try not to worry too much, though I know that can be difficult. It's great you're doing positive things for yourself, and I hope you get a better nights sleep tonight. :1hug:

I am doing alright. Thanks for the nice messages that you sent me. I took a nap which I needed. I already had dinner. I did alot of nice things for myself and it helped me alot. I did not get a chance to write in my journal today,but I will write in it tomorrow after I get home from the hospital. My boy-friend will be over later and we are going out for awhile. We have to get cig.and go other places,but it will not take us long. I have not done any SI so far and that is great. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be back on later.taking care of myself :bcatsmile:

I went to the hospital and got the test done. I wrote about it on the health part. I wrote in my journal and it helped me alot. I already ate dinner with my boy-friend and we had pizza at Pizza Hut. I am doing alright and feeling pretty good. My boy-friend and I are going out for awhile,but we will not be gone long. I have day treatment program tomorrow and I am looking forward to going in. NO SI so far and that is great. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. If the results are sercious the doctor will call me this week,I hope not,otherwise I will see him next week for the results on Monday. I just hope he does not call me this week. I will be just fine. Just nervous. I will be back on later. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:

I am doing alright. I had a great day at program today. When I got home I wrote in my journal and then I took a nap,cause I was tired. I am watching t.v.,with my boy-friend and relaxing. Writing in my journal has helped me alot to express my feelings and emotions. I have day treatment program tomorrow and then I am off till next Tuesday. I see my gyn Monday for the results of my test and I hope everything will be just fine. I just wanted to let everyone know how I am doing. I will be just fine. I will be back on later. taking care of myself :bcatsmile:
