Putting the usual meaningless minutiae on hold for a bit...
Jonathan informed me yesterday that Barbara went to the doctor and they found some cancer.  I don't know much more than that.  He said they weren't planning to do surgery, just chemo and medicine.  She is sooo sweet, good as gold.  Better.  I spent a lot of time over at their house when I was younger, and I just love her to death.  Oddly, I saw her for the first time in a year or more just a couple of weeks ago.  Anyway, she was still in the hospital, as of yesterday.  I don't know for how long.  I know some of you know the family.  Thoughts and prayers would be appreciated, I'm sure.
I hate cancer.  I hate it, I hate it, I hate it!!  I had a dream last night that I went to see her, and that she was really weak and stuff.  Why can't we find a cure or do more to prevent it?  I guess that a lot of cases can be treated successfully.  It's just a terrible thing.  I hope she will be OK.  Of course, look at me.  I didn't even participate in the relay for life Friday.  What am I doing?  Nothing.  I'm pathetic.  Selfish.  Pathetic.
