Buzzard Update

It seems like it's been forever since I wrote on my own or read any blogs. For those of you that have asked about the Buzzard, I appreciate your thoughts. My wife, who has been a sick lady for several years took a turn for the worse just a little over a month ago. She spent some time in the hospital here locally and finally last week we visited the Mayo Clinic in hopes of finding some answers and hope. Unfortunately, for us, we found neither answers nor hope in our journey.

I have always tried to use my blog to feature what I observe as the humorous side of life and its experiences. However, this last month I have not found that much to laugh about. As anyone who has dealt or deals with serious or chronic illness to a loved one knows, it sucks the life out of all involved. I will avoid commenting about her health issues on this blog, as it takes all the emotional well being we have just to update and explain the issues to family members and close friends. Just know that my redhead is truly the fire and light of my life, and I pray for her well being daily.

That's the update, I aim to start writing again immediately for my own mental health.

Sorry to hear of the troubles you and your wife have faced. Hope that your blog provides a little "therapy" and is something of a release for you.

I wish you peace...

I was going to email you this morning, and then my 10-year-old modem bit the dust. After messing around all day, I came back online and here you are!

You and your beautiful wife can count on my prayers too because this is the time when they're needed most.

And it's great that you're blogging again.
