I'm sorry I haven't posted anything on the CD since returning from Milwaukee. My
kid sister's husband died on June 10th at age 58 and it all happened so fast,
it's been a big shock to our family. He just thought he had a sinus infection
but when he had tests done in May they told them it was lung cancer.....and a
month later he was gone! No typical symptoms of lung cancer, etc. They had an
antique business for 30 years and I've been helping her every day trying to pack
things up so she can close the store. We've been moving everything to a storage
unit they have until she decides where she is financially, what she can or can't
do.

So, that's why I haven't spent much time on my computer. I'm going into the
hospital Monday to have a Lithotripsy done for a kidney stone [litho means
stone. tripsy means to break up]. It's an out-patient thing so shouldn't be any
problem, except for being sore for a few days. In general, things have just
been crazy here!

The HD Caregiver's CD went over really great at the convention! For anyone who
wants a copy, please send a check for $7.00 along with the address where you
want the CD mailed to:
