Thanks Debbie --
I am just about in tears right now. While I was out they called
saying report done. Big mystery - wouldn't tell Frank.
And now waiting for the oncologist to call. I am sick to my
stomach; don't like the 'run-around' and no one will talk to me.
Bad vibes. At least at the Cancer Center in NJ they gave you
the results right away. I'm sure it isn't anything, but i am really
scared. Now I am totally useless for the rest of the day.

FOR ANYONE WHO IS WORRIED
ABOUT GETTING OLD

I would never trade my amazing friends, my wonderful life,
my loving family for less gray hair or a flatter belly. As I've aged,
I've become kinder to myself, and less critical of myself. I've become
my own friend. I don't chide myself for eating that extra
cookie, or for not making my bed. I am entitled to a treat,
to be messy, to be extravagant.

I have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon; before they
understood the great freedom that comes with aging.

Whose business is it if I choose to read or play on the computer
until 4 AM and sleep until noon? I will dance with myself to
those wonderful tunes of the 60 &70's, and if I, at the same
time, wish to weep over a lost love ... I will.

I will walk the beach in a swim suit that is stretched
over a bulging body, and will dive into the waves with
abandon if I choose to, despite the pitying glances from
the jet set.They, too, will get old.

I know I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some
of life is just as well forgotten. And I eventually remember
the important things. Sure, over the years my heart has
been broken. How can your heart not break when you l
ose a loved one, or when a child suffers, or even when
somebody's beloved pet gets hit by a car? But broken
hearts are what give us strength and understanding and
compassion. A heart never broken is pristine and sterile
and will never know the joy of being imperfect.

I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair
turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched
into deep grooves on my face.

So many have never laughed, and so many have died
before their hair could turn silver. As you get older, it is
easier to be positive. You care less about what other
people think. I don't question myself anymore. I've even
earned the right to be wrong.

So, to answer your question, I like being old. It has set
me free. I like the person I have become. I am not going
to live forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time
lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what
will be. And I shall eat dessert every single day (if I feel like it).

GOOD ONE, JIM...SO TRUE...:)

YOU GO JIM YOUR THE MAN
I COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER NOR AS GOOD AS YOU DID
JIM I AM ONLY 58 AND I FEEL THE SAME WAY I ERNNED MY WAY IN LIFE
THE GOOD AND THE BAD

TERRY
DID YOU HEAR FROM JOEY IS HIS BAND GOING TO PLAY TH REUNION
