    Thursday, September 18, 2008 | A Positive story

    As I watch our stock market tumbling I find myself feeling cynical, how did these folks get us IN to this mess!  I then remember one of the the coolest coolest things about my job....THE PEOPLE...I get inspired all over again and I have to think we will all be ok.  When I do talks in schools or community groups I tell kids about the long haul medicine entails&nb...

    We saw the oncologist today, and Ray had a CTscan and bloodwork.  The bloodwork all looked good.  The CTscan showed maybe one milimeter growth in lung nodules, but the doctor wasn't too concerned and considered it a "nonsignificant change".  He doesn't have to return until January 19th.  Can't begin to say how grateful we are to God...

    Tuesday, November 4, 2008 | An Inspiring story

    I think we can all agree tonight is a historic night. Regardless of how you feel about Obama I hope we are all inspired by the amazing turnout and the emotional investment in this election we have never seen before.
    Today I was doing rounds at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center. It is common to have many folks hanging out in the waiting rooms outside of the surgical ICU waiting for the "5 ...

  • An Open Appology to Michael Dymant

    Thursday, May 15, 2008 | A Positive story

    Well I have done much thinking over the past three days and I have come to the following conclusion- I have unwittingly allowed hurtful people to involve me in their own personal agendas on this site.  Unfortunately, Oz started out a group of strong people, Michael, Sarah, Lynda and myself and then we expanded. Well we did not know what we were in for.  I met a woman through Lynda who I...

    Ray and I are in gorgeous Destin Florida, and having a WONDERFUL time.  It really does have clear blue water and beautiful white sandy beaches.  We rented a nice condo righ on the Gulf.  I'm watching the sunset, as I write this.  Life doesn't get much better than this.  Thank you, God, for giving us this special time together in this special place.
