Re: cancer (update)

Thanks for the update Paul.  Been thinking about you.  Make sure to  
take care of yourself (i.e. remember to eat, sleep, etc..), it is  
mentally and physically exhausting to you I know.
FWIW, my wife's dad had a series of strokes yesterday...not sure yet  
his prognosis either.

regards,
