Thanks for your support, Chuck.  We're back from our Mexican Riviera cruise to celebrate Dan's and my 20th wedding anniversary.  What a great time we had!

I will be calling my doctor on Monday to find out what our next steps are in chasing down this glitch on the nuclear body scan.....and also in determining why I am anemic.  (How can you go to Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta and be cold the whole time?)  But...in the interests of successfully surviivng and getting the best of this life we have, I completed another famous first for me:

At the age of 63 years, I went parasailing 350 feet in the air over Yelapas Bay near Puerta Vallarta!  What a view!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming ---

Wow! What a ride!!!!!

Survivors,

I wasn't around when Marla formed her Wolf Pack. I could find no
better Alpha leader for a Wolf Pack than Marla. I am definitely going
to follow my leader and do what I can to participate in her fight
against the odds. I expect that next week Marla will learn that her
scan contained a speck of dust that gave a false positive.

Shalom,
Chuck
