He used to come to the regular Tuesday night jams, so I phoned the hostess Beth - only to find that their dear daughter, who had been treated for epilepsy all her life and even had surgery, had had a seizure Nov 1 while taking a bath - and drowned. She would have been 18 on Dec 18.

She and her present husband, and the daughter's dad, are in horrible shock right now, just staggering emotionally through each day. PLEASE lots of prayers and good thoughts for them and the brothers and sisters.

Lastly....this is so very small, very small....as I move forward in my new job, I am scared, and hope the work starts coming in soon. I have a plan to support me for a couple of months, but it does mean going in the hole. Given my ADD that has cost me many office jobs (this one isn't) and can present a challenge, I just pray that this time things work a lot better for not only me, but my colleagues and clients.

Thank you.
I'm sorry about your friend, Candace, but at least he's at peace now. And for the family of the young girl who drowned, they surely have my condolences and prayers. My friend died exactly the same way and this after she'd had surgery which was supposed to end her seizures. As for your new job, my dear, of course you have my prayers and good wishes.
