Pam, Terry and Paul, I am so sorry for everything. I am also sorry I can not be there I just had sinus surgery so I can't fly or drive. I wish there was something uplifting I could say. Even though I can count on my hands how many times a year I will see my cousins those times I count on and take for granted. My body is here, but heart, mind and prayers are with all of y'all.
