Hi Kathy,
I'm dropping a line again your way and hoping you don't mind. I just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you and wishing you the best possible during such difficult times. Your brother Bill is definitely a godsend, as you said. And even though it's not much, I'm glad some of the music posted brings a bit of comfort your way. God Bless you, Dean W.G.

Lately I have been busy with chemo treatments and emergency room visits.
I am taking oral chemo and I live with thrush going down my throat. Can you give me any suggestions on something a little tastier than suspension stuff that I gargle and swallow three times a day. Lester said his wife Peggy Sue is also a nurse. I will not be going to the reunion due to my health. I did go to the Reunion in San Diego. That was fun but not real fun. I have a lot of people reaching out and I love all the prayers that keep my spirit positive, I travel to see all my friends but my last trip to New Orleans told me I need to stay closer to home.. I am only on the computer on Saturdays due to it being in my brothers bedroom. My computer is also down. I am thinking about getting a lap top, but my fingers hurt so bad due to hang nails that are infected and toes with blisters. I have had them since I started on the Oral Chemo. I live each day with a smile on my face. Heading for my Mom's tomorrow for an overnight sleepover. She is now 87 and lives about two hours from Bill and I.. She is a trooper and keeps me going. My brother is a God Send. I finally moved in with him back in July of 07. Brain/ Bone cancer is a very private hell. so if you can suggest anything that will make me feel any better I will take your suggestions onboard. I live in Boynton Beach, Fl and I am in contact with Dean Wiseman due to his music that he downloads
I just see a name I recognize and respond. No motives here. Trust me I should update the photo. I am on steriods so I have gained serious weight and look like the Blueberry boy on Willy Wonka. Bill's girlfriend is cooking dinner, so I shall go hangout with them. We all went to Safari Park today where you drive your car through and see animals from Africa and India. It was beautiful and I was grateful .

Kathy, You can touch base with me apart from my brother. If you want to reach out to a friend without predisposed notions. I have been a nurse in an intensive care burn unit and there is nothing you could say that would suprise me. If you want somebody to say what is really getting under your skin... I could probably be your girl. I Love you now because of what we shared in our younger years. We are a small but dynamic and powerful group. Jacq

Kathy,
I am Lester Lane's sister...Jacq. His computer has been down for days and he has asked me to reach out to you and give you an alternate way to contact him. He really feels a genuine need to reach you. His cell number is 843-909-0716. I know that he feels a genuine need to touch base with you. I am a nurse and what he tells me about what is going on with you...tells me...My prayers and positive feelings of love and strength are with you. Love to you...Jacq
