When I posted my blog about my wife going into the hospital, I was not looking for sympathy, but was simply explaining why my next story could be late. That's why I was so surprised when I received so many sympathy notes from you wonderful people. In fact, I received so many notes that it is simply impossible to respond to all of them individually.
Therefore, to each and every one of you, please accept this note as my thank-you for the words of sympathy that you so graciously sent. The notes were gratefully appreciated. Again, thank you.
