Maga and Brian-
I am in shock to read this. But I guess you are never prepared for bad
news. And how would we know if it was bad if we didn't have SO much good.
Especially together! With all my heart I send up my prayers and send you So
much hope. I pray for you both to have strength and optimisim for the future
and I know there will be for such wonderful happy people as you are. It is
now that I really recall how much strength you both brought me when i was
down. And I wih the same for you. PLEASE send us good news soon and be well.
Love to you both
Michael (still trying to decompress and spit it out in New Orleans)
Night ya'll
