Happy Thanksgiving!


I hope you all had a great time this Thanksgiving - full of family and food! We had a great time hosting this year. Everyone brought terrific dishes, Robbie made an incredible turkey and we all enjoyed the day!

I want to take this occasion to express my sincere thanks to all of you who have been so supportive to me and my family during these past two months. It has been a difficult time. And I will admit that I have had some pretty dark days, particularly early on. But it seems that whenever my coping skills frayed and my ability to stay positive began to wane, I would get a note or a call or an email from one of you. And like magic, it would give me the lift I needed to take the next step. I can’t express to you all how much your words and acts have meant. I owe you all a debt I may never be able to repay.

So this Thanksgiving, I give thanks to you for all you have done for Rob and me.

Brian - Are you getting the chance to enjoy the challenges of the new boss, staff and job responsibilities?

Hi Brian, Carolyn just sent us the link to your blog - wow. I love that the name of your chemo includes FU. Please keep telling your cancer to "F" off. And now that I know you can take Zofran for a hangover (a la Vicky), it has been an educational experience. Your strength shows through, keep it up!

Dear Brian- Good luck with this next round of chemo. It's great that you're maintaining your sense of humor- if positive attitude does the trick you'll be okay. And it always does the trick in the present. If you are in the mood for a country vacation we have a great spot here in the Berkshires and you'll aways be welcome. Lots of love W
