For those of you interested Only in TRAVEL, I (Jack) wrote the blog between MARCH 2010 and October 2010 during our travels west. We saw the most beautiful places and had the best time in our big truck and little trailer. See Blog Archive below.

MARY'S CHEMO IS OVER!!!

Just received word that Mary's Chemo is finished 3 days earlier than expected! It's been such a long and difficult ordeal for Mary. I am so happy for her, for my niece, Jenny, and her husband John, and of course my sister and her husband (grandparents)

This caught me by such surprise that I am speechless (very unusual). I wanted a record of the date and time I heard...September 13, 2013 at 2:59 p.m.

After seeing all that this little one has been through, I will continue to contribute to St. Judes in hopes of a cure for or childhood cancer. No child and no family should have to endure this awful disease.




Time to begin living life, Mary. You go girl!

  1. Thank you, Carolyn, Paul and Marsha,

    Thank you for commenting. As soon as I posted this blog, Mary called me to tell me what I already knew. I made believe I didn't know so she could tell me. She is so excited and sounded so happy. Already, her voice was so different than when I've spoken to her on the phone before and different than when I saw her on my trip to New York. So much excitement! Little Ally got on the phone, too. Too cute. They are all going to a very special place to celebrate, tomorrow. I didn't catch the name of it when the kids told me, but it sounds like a place where kids have fun. I just can't tell you how happy I am not only for Mary, but for Jenny, John, Ally, and my sister who has been so strong, but so devastated worrying not only about Mary, but about her own "little girl".
