I'm sorry to hear that the news wasn't better. I was hoping those navel beans would do the trick. I'm glad to see that you still have a positive attitude, though!

Thanks, Cliff. Well, I've said all along that it doesn't matter what I'm given, I plan on being here. I just hope God's will is the same as my will.

What a birthday present, huh?!?!?! At least Mom will be well enough for our traditional family birthday dinners. We always go for steamed crab on everyone's birthdays. So, crabs it will be on Tuesday. Yummy!!

Crabs for you birthday.... Are you going to save me some??????? Wouldn't it be great if crabs contained powerful anti-cancer chemicals?? That would be the ultimate in chemotherapy! (And maybe oyster shooters would cure the common cold!)

By the way, since it's the new year--I'm still planning to take you to dinner and a car cruise, and I don't want to hear any excuses this year!
