<<Have you heard anything from jp? >>

Not a word. I am wondering about her news and that of her, I believe, nephew. Friday was to be the big day for each.

Me, I'm getting by. I took Sue a notebook for making notes and also listed all her friends phone #s. She calls me instead of looking in the book so I made a 2nd list for here. Last night she called at midnight wanting me to come to the hospital and get her a codeine tablet and to put on her leg flexor thing. She didn't want to bother the nurses.

I'm working on deal a with her riding horse. If he wants to live long and well and get plenty of carrots, next time he has to dump her on her head instead of her leg.

Hi, penni! I've been being run ragged by the parental units. So much for them aging. I fell out first.

Reckon I'm in a little shock about the cous. So far we have the positive news that it is non-hodgkin's and not hodgkin's and that there are good successes with treatment now. I won't let my breath out till they get the results back from the Mayo Clinic. He will have to undergo chemotherapy. It seems silly to *hope* right now that the results will show it to be isolated, that it is whatever kind is the *least* dangerous, yaddayadda. There is no changing what the results will be, after all. But I do. It's harder after hoping that it just looked suspicious but wasn't cancer, then hearing the news. There's just waiting and being prepared and praying that Mitchell recovers to enjoy the life he has seemed destined to live, and that our collective Mac-hearts won't be broken. And giving lots of support to him, and to his family of parents, step-brothers, grandparents, aunt and uncle.
