I have been thinking about how fast this year has passed by. It's almost Christmas once again. Hard to believe. I have so much to be grateful, thankful for. People have been good to us ... I have had double bypass surgery ... 2 complete blockages ... the widow maker. The surgeon said I had maybe 2 days before collapsing. I'll write about that a little later. My son, as you all remember, died May 29, 2010 ... he had 3 complete blockages. He collapsed on the beach at Myrtle Beach while running, playing with his little son. I wanted to reach out, begin writing on mylot once again. So much has kept me from being able to sit down, relax, write. I hope now ... I can. For the moment I will say goodnight.

I'm so sorry to hear about your son! It is so good that they found out that you had blockages and had the surgery to correct it. That is a big blessing!

I agree, this year has flown by. Yes, I do remember you writing about your son collapsing on the beach. It makes me sad to think about.
