Spontaneous Laughter

Hello Lovely-Will hearing "thinking of you" ever get old? I hope not. It's true for me and many others. I see you at the DAC, at Provisions, in red wine, and in every Jeep or Element that passes by. You were with me today, as I was undergoing my procedure, similar but very different from yours. I wondered how many times you were asked to repeat your name, birth date, and the type of procedure you were having (among other things that are too long and arduous to mention here). However, I have to wonder if you also got the ugliest, most bizarre mesh underwear reminiscent of an onion sack (which my nurse declared to be a “perk of the job” and "great for camping")? Speaking of onions, there's something to be said for humor. Andy and I learned spontaneous laughter can take a heart rate at 37 to 65 in a matter of seconds. I found this particularly amusing and thought you might too: http://www.theonion.com/content/node/43929. No offense to men that own similar sweaters. I also learned we don't take enough pictures, yet we have this one. Leave it to Todd to have the urge to take his gloves off. Not surprisingly, you're sporting a sly smile and holding your own with the fellas. I'm reminded that I look forward to seeing you on the slopes in your new ear muff goggles after this is all over.

My advice for the moment: laugh often. And while it may be a little too woo-woo I pulled an Angel Card for you: Commitment. Thinking of you often and sending eternal optimism your way. You are amazing.
Big Hugs and Love, Alison
