And Here I thought that 2008 was going to be better

I'm going to be a bit cryptic here. Some know all the details but the family involved has told who they want to tell and I am leaving it at that. If it is addressed publicly then I will be less obtuse. If you know who it is, I ask that his name not be brought up in the comments at this time. Thanks. If you have a guess and want to check, then e-mail me ( puppetmaker (at) gmail (dot) Com)

We found out this morning that a family that are some of our best friends were told that their eldest son has leukemia. It is apparent the best kind of leukemia to get if you are going to get it. He is under going treatment now. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

I am grateful for medical treatments that didn't exist even 10 years ago.

I don't need to know - but my thoughts and hopes will be with them. There have been such great strides in treatment in the last decade, and I'm hopeful that he will pull through, not just with that, but with the love and support of his family, which is almost if not just as important as the medical aspect.
