Hi Group,

I've been in and out, up and down this very hectic summer. My mother
broke her hip at a family reunion in the suburbs of Little Rock,
Arkansas in June and Andrew and I flew out to be with her while she
underwent surgery and acute rehabilitation. She is home now in
California and doing quite well. I want to especially thank Rob and
his contacts in Little Rock for locating a perfect hotel for us. I
took my 10 year-old son, Andrew, with me on this trip, much to the
delight of his grandmother.

However, while I was gone, my husband, Mark, had further heart
problems. His defibrillator went off and I received an emergency
call on my cell phone from my Episcopal minister who was in the
hospital's emergency room with Mark. Mark is fine now, but it was
extra drama that we did not need.

When I finally got home I had a bad fall that resulted in a sprained
knee and a series of MRIs. Some of the old-timers know that ten
years-ago I had stereotactic brain surgery to insert a cyst catheter
into my mid-brain to drain an (apparent) congenital arachnoid cyst
that had grown quite large. The surgery was rife with complications,
and the catheter is still in my brain. When I fell this summer I
apparently jarred the catheter and I'm still having trouble with
dizziness and balance issues. My neurologist recommended some
vestibular compensation exercises with the hope that they will help
me with this near-constant vertigo.

On the positive side, I had a PB-PCR performed at UCLA in June that
came back PCRU. I asked them how many cells were tested and they
told me that they tested one million cells. So, that was good news.

I would really love to help plan a West Coast Beach Blast, but I
fear that I'm just not up to that level of activity right now. I
would love to attend a CML get together on the West Coast. So, if
Mary or anyone is up to planning, count me in!

Sending warm regards,
Kristin
