Cheryl, he's doing OK tonight. He's a little peppy right now since the Bears are winning. Sheesh, I can't make him feel better but football can? Men.

Seriously, he's Ok. He is resigned to the fact that it may be time for his yearly hospital visit. He's really getting tired of all this but remains strong in that he'll fight it. Sometimes I ask myself how he stays so strong and upbeat? I learn so much from him everyday.

Frank, Jim looked at your pic and said "He looks like someone I could really like.

I will update as soon as I hear from the doctor. He's such a good doctor too and refused to admit Jim last Friday knowing how much Jim hates the hospital. He told us Monday is the day to know for sure. I'll get a pic of him for you all. If you ever see that man on the streets, know you've just met one of the good doctors.

He told me Friday one of the reasons he works for the VA is because he doesn't have to deal with insurance bs. He said he became a doctor to heal his patients, not fight insurance companies, his words.

Thanks again everyone! I am touched by each and every one of you more than you'll ever know.
