Personal Note

I've been a bit distracted lately and because of this, I can't remember with which of my friends I shared some concerns. Since I am sure I left some of you dangling, here's an update.

Finally - some good news. Bill is doing a little better. He is more interested in getting out and doing things and seems to have found some sort of reserve of inner strength. He's talking about taking a cruise (this should make you happy, Ed). Ed's been dangling great cruise brochures in front of us for a year, but Bill never really felt up to going.

As for me, I mentioned in a blog entry three months ago that I had had a cancer scare. At the time, I was fairly sure I was ok, but there was still some concern. I had to wait all this time, but finally I learned yesterday that I don't have the suspected malignancy.

Hopefully we'll find out some good news about my father soon as well. Three weeks ago, I found out that he is ill and Tuesday he has to have a bone marrow biopsy. We're waiting, praying and trying not to worry.
