Dear Readers,

I'm sorry for the current hiatus and promise to be back with more of the story ASAP. My oldest [handicapped] son suffered a series of multiple strokes in mid-March and had to be airlifted out to an acute care hospital facility more than 100 miles away, where he spent several weeks under sedation. He's currently in a mid-level acute facility [still out of town] and of course, I'm with him. In addition, my car engine chose this time to blow up [four days before] so I my youngest son has been driving from 100+ miles away to drive me to the other facilities. I am happy to say that my son is showing signs of recovery, but we've got a long road of recovery ahead of us...
