Day 24: Babies and Countries

Wonderfully, and thankfully, life moves on. Illness arrives in some places, while beauty and life arrive in others. Recently, our oldest daughter announced that she is pregnant with our first grandchild. We are so excited! Life is sweet.





On an interesting but less exciting note, we discovered this blog has been visited by readers from nine countries: Australia, Canada, France (Hi, Suzanne!), Indonesia, New Zealand, Philippines, South Africa, United Kingdom, and of course the United States. Some of these have been linked from other cancer survivors' pages, and many have arrived via Gracie's onewheelforlife blog. It's fun to be part of a global social connecting, however brief and anonymous.

Things we appreciated today: An outdoor cafe, the exuberance and potential of youth, good hospital care, and bran muffins.

Congratulations on your wonderful news! I think the last time I saw Kristen, she was 8 or 9!

Since you're appreciating outdoor cafes, we'll think of you (even more) when we visit our favorite ones here in France!

Lots of love,
Suzanne & Jim
