I don't know if you were like this before, but I can see your have quite the poetic soul. Maybe you should give some thought to writing straight verse about those things you appreciate (or hate, I guess). It doesn't have to be Pulitzer quality, and at our age who gives a damn what others think. It is great mental exercise and you may be surprised how well it turns out.

Always praying for you, my friend. Stay positive and get well soon.

Bob, thank you for the kind words. I've toyed around with the idea of writing something else, and I'm thinking of starting it this fall. :)

Jangus --

When you're done beating cancer, you have a future as a writer. I hate to say this but, I look forward to your updates. In a world of social media nonsense comes your well written, authentic, and personal story. I hope that writing these messages does you as much good as it does to those of us who read them! Always remember, YOU are the storm!!!
