Dick - Great news. Like has been said by the others, those of us that have been through it with a wife or other loved one know the strain it puts on you. And when you've dodged the cancer bullet, you enjoy each day together all the more. Stu

There have been any number of nice things said here, Penn Dick. It is a reflection of how friends come together to celebrate Darlene's good news. You have been a good friend to each of us here on the 48-60 and your request for help and prayer is humbling.

This kind of thing brings us all closer in friendship and caring. Continued best wishes for you both emanate from one lonely spot in the desert.

your friend, himmelberg

I havn't been on this site that long yet but I would also like exspress my joy for your good news. I was asked the other day by my son what would I want if I could have any thing, I had always made the three wish thing with health, wealth, and happyness. I without thinking simply said health, I guess as a person gets older we change our thoughts on whats inportant. Good Luck and long life.
