I was going to write this to my friend Mary, but I thought I'd just share with everyone.
My friend, Chuck, from Dribble is dying of cancer. I chatted with his daughter, Kate, earlier this evening. He is now bedridden and going in/out a lot. I've been crying since she told me.
I will miss him and his stories about all sorts of things from his printer that has a mind of it's own, his family, his experiences in the 'old-folk's home' and so many other varied subjects. He is also the one who urged me to begin writing when I was just a 'lurker' amongst all the journals. He is also a past special ed teacher. He advised me in difficult situations and made me laugh.
Thanks for everything, Chuck!! I'll miss you!!

Ohhh I just looked at his journal a few days ago...was the first or second time I'd visited there, I think. This is very sad indeed. I'm so sorry for your pain. Take comfort in knowing he'll be in such a better place soon.
