Hey.... quick update on the status of Deedee's life: I am in McComb, visiting Anna. My mom called me this afternoon to tell me that Daddy's routine colonoscopy turned out to be not routine... they found cancer, and it's apparently pretty big. They admited Daddy to the hospital, and they're going to operate Monday or Tuesday... Daddy's all cool, taking everything in stride... Mom is a basketcase.
And my brother has the mumps. you know, the kind you get vaccinated for... yeah. He got them anyway.
So I'm keeping in contact with the family through cell phones... Mom's told me not to come home yet, to continue acting normal... so we're trying. Everything here is continuing as planned, with the exception that if Mom calls, we may drop everything and run to Huntsville.
So yeah. Pray, or light a candle, or send positive energy, or whatever it is that you people do... all of it will be greatly appreciated. Not sure how much online time I'll have this weekend... but I'll try to keep y'all posted.
