* Let us take the 2nd one first, ancestors. I just returned from a friendly voyage to Cherokee,NC. It was a field trip/ vacation with my family before I go to Mayo. My family tree has a good bit of Cherokee in it, it just happens to be the side I dislike. HAHA! I found it so interesting seeing and watching the people teach, dance,and work with the old tools. I urge anyone of any ethnicity to go see this beautiful place. It made me want to look into my Cherokee heritage and discover which clan I belong. I wish we still lived the ways of the pioneers. However, in my condition I would be picked off by a bear while my tribal friends escaped to dance a dance for me. My Facebook page contains the dance to which I am referring.
* Friends..... what does that word mean to you? To me I see peoples faces when I define friends. My wife,Amelia, even though she criticizes my blog and the way I write it. She has stood by me throughout this disease. Donna, the woman who was there for me at work more than anyone else. My preceptor,teacher,spiritual adviser...friend. Kim and Jamie, they organized PTO donation and money donation for me after I got sick. Both showed me the ropes at the Children's hospital and both remain friends. Justin, who just today said he would make sure my vent was managed properly should something require him to, you know neurological diseases can have influence on respiratory muscles. James, my red head little brother. We are of no relation but I see much of me in him. Picked from the same tree I guess, his branch was just lower than mine.HAHA! Our crude texts and jabs are sometimes just what I needed. I have many others that could be placed here but these just popped out at me today. Sometimes a friend is not even someone you know very well, they can be strangers. By that I mean anyone can make you feel loved and put a smile on your face. Friend.
I changed the font color. Amelia said the other color hurt her eyes. Let me know if this is any better?
I like the font, nice contrast against the black. Did you change the background picture too?
