I haven't seen many posts from you lately, so I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you.   :cuddle;

You guys and gals are so sweet to worry about me.  Marvin and I have been so busy lately; it's baseball season, and he's been working hard with his little team (nine and ten year old boys).  I haven't had much time to get on here and check on all of you.

Now, we're waiting for a call back from Duke (got the call Wed. afternoon for a transplant).

We're okay -- had been busy, now very nervous.
