our lives are currently like holding onto the sweaty rubber bar on the rickety old roller coaster, hoping not to get tossed off around the next corner. scott's g-pa just died, so we're driving to his funeral in sacramento. my own grandpa's cancer just got much worse. started chemo, but it's really fast and bad. i just got a re-infection of a root canal done 15 years ago. might have to have the thing pulled. tons o' pain, fatigue, nausea. (might explain the constant low-grade infections i've had for these last couple of years.) working intensely with a doctor i just got tons of tests results back from (viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites, oh my!). the guy we played in a dixieland band with 6 years ago, on the Mississippi River, just died last week.

and now i've decided to go to Europe in 3 weeks.

phew. it's a good thing we had that river trip. or else i'm sure we would've been tossed off the ride completely.

hanging on with a smile. if not on my face, then in my heart.
