My first ever blog entry

Hi to all my fellow bloggers (never dreamed I would say those words!)I have to admit this was a great idea. I love hearing from all of you, and really appreciate the good wishes and prayers. One silver lining so far has been that I have a team of 3 doctors taking care of me, and they are all women! And 2 of the three are really cute!So having Cookie, sister Barbara, and all the doc's and nurses being babes, how bad could it get? I won't bore you with medical details...suffice it to say that so far so good, and everything seems to be progressing nicely. I can only tell you all that I am one lucky man to have the kind of friends and family I am blessed with, and I really cannot thank you enough for your support. Keep the feedback coming, it's great reading. Love to you all!

Mike

Hi, Mike-
Glad to hear from you! If your rash is itchy, and the docs say ok, you might try Sarna...a topical lotion. Good stuff.
As for the hot chicks, if they keep you cheerful, so much the better!
Lots of love,
Sue and Barry

Hi Cookie and Mike--it's Sheryl from school. I'm so delighted to hear that #1-the docs et al are cute--helps with the recovery and #2 that,thus far, all is going well. Things here at school are status quo but we do think of you daily.
Take care and keep up the good spirits.
Sheryl
