You can be thoughtful in so many ways. The point is to do something, and do something today. I have listed below 36 easy ideas that anyone would appreciate. Sometimes it is hard for a patient to ask for help. Just do it!</p> <p>The hardest thing about chronic disease is that is is chronic. I had a friend who had a really bad flu and she received flowers that very week. With me – since I am sick all the time… I get nothing. Am I any less sick, sad, frustrated, lonely, or bored. NO, I need your love and support now more than ever. When everyone else forgets that I am still in this struggle with my illness….. please remember. It didn’t go away, I didn’t forget. I need you to be my friend.</p> <br><a href="http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/2009/06/36_easy_things_that_you_can_do.php">Click to read more ... </a> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9ZKhAjfgJ1UxwLD0pEVsk1lSLog/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9ZKhAjfgJ1UxwLD0pEVsk1lSLog/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9ZKhAjfgJ1UxwLD0pEVsk1lSLog/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/9ZKhAjfgJ1UxwLD0pEVsk1lSLog/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/bydls/~4/TALRIrMOaGM" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/bydls/~3/TALRIrMOaGM/36_easy_things_that_you_can_do.php http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/2009/06/36_easy_things_that_you_can_do.php Top Ten Lists Mon, 22 Jun 2009 13:38:28 -0500 http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/2009/06/36_easy_things_that_you_can_do.php <p><strong>Christine Donato, board member of the Lupus Alliance of America, is featured in a recent edition of Legislative Report with Senator Kemp Hannon (R-NY) to promote Lupus Awareness Month.</strong> In the interview is also JoAnn Quinn the executive director of the Lupus Alliance, Long Island/ Queens affiliate.

I would just walk around and watch people. I liked to watch the “high rollers” because they seemed so carefree with amounts of money that would make me sick, if I lost. For a moment, I would love to be able to be one of them and not have a care in the world, and be able to bet freely. I stayed long enough to watch the same older man, win big.</p> <div style="float: right; display: inline; margin: 5px;"> <a href="http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/images/Roulette-Wheel.jpg"><img alt="Roulette-Wheel.jpg" src="http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/images/Roulette-Wheel-thumb.jpg" width="253" height="195" /></a> </div> <p>People were cheering for him, as he bet black. He looked like luck was on his side that night, but then he just broke even, no cheers that time, but no big disappointments either, he was safe. Just as I was about to walk away I watched as he lost it all. He looked frustrated and even a little mad, but he continued to play anyway. In a matter of minutes I saw such a wide spectrum of luck and emotion. I laughed to myself knowing I couldn’t even afford to play. I walked away and never forgot thinking “that is my life… a roulette wheel. I never know what I'll wake up to, what I can do, or how I am going to feel.” It’s all a risk, an unknown.<br /> </p> <br><a href="http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/2009/06/my_roulette_kinda_life.php">Click to read more ... </a> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5sCKi6v_jj2kGRnBaXB4d-t7coU/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5sCKi6v_jj2kGRnBaXB4d-t7coU/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5sCKi6v_jj2kGRnBaXB4d-t7coU/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5sCKi6v_jj2kGRnBaXB4d-t7coU/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/bydls/~4/YOntzPo23d0" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/bydls/~3/YOntzPo23d0/my_roulette_kinda_life.php http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/2009/06/my_roulette_kinda_life.php written by Christine Sat, 06 Jun 2009 13:07:33 -0500 http://www.butyoudontlooksick.com/2009/06/my_roulette_kinda_life.php <p>A Do-Now, 4-Step Guide to Kick Starting Summer Weight Loss by Wendy Chant, Author of Conquer the Fat-Loss Code</p> <p>Few things in this life are as frustrating as working hard to look better, firm up or slim down and, after a few weeks -- or a few months -- of eating right and exercising STILL having nothing to show for it!
