MY LIFE. period.

'Synovial fibroblasts have high levels of the adhesion molecule, vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM-1) , a molecule which supports B lymphocyte survival and differentiation, and of decay accelerating factor (DAF), a factor that prevents complement-induced cell lysis. These molecules may facilitate the formation of ectopic lymphoid tissue in synovium.'

so amidst studying for the year 3 finals (2 weeks!!! !$%^&$*#@$%^@##) i have taken to relieving my stress by fanatically baking... carrot cake is oh so yummy... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... pity the expanding pannus in RA isn't exactly the perfect appetiser...

meanwhile, besides books and a brain i've pre-emptied of the following :

-childhood memories
-conversational skills
-simple mathematical manipulation
-people's names
-methods of having fun

i've added :
1. coffeee.. LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF COFFEE.
2. prayer. LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF PRAYER.

to the mix, stirred it all together and.. voila! that's carol's secret of success! ahhh.... now if this caffeine-induced headahce would just subside....
