Hi Anita. I will be keeping both you and Clark in my prayers. You have both been through so much. I hope this finally takes care of the issues he has been having and relieves the pain. Waiting is always the hardest part. Let me know when you want to get together for that drink. I know you will be busy for a while. I'm also glad to hear that you had such a good weekend. It was good to let your family know what to expect before you got there.

John has had a full beard for most of his adult life. We had dinner yesterday at his mom's house and we weren't in the door 1 minute when his sister says "what happened to your beard? you looked so much better with it". It's not like we haven't seen her in the last year. I reminded her that he can't grow one because of the radiation and that I think he looks much more handsome without one. Family!!!
