Gil's other big birthday present




I'm hoping to be able to post PICTURES (with luck, no more boring text only posts!) of Gil's two big presents; the TV you heard about but the other one was on the day after his party, our daughter in law, Kate, ran a MARATHON to raise money for myeloma research.  This is not simply an academic gift.  Gil's life expectancy is intimately tied to the research into new treatments.  This was, indeed, a gift of life (and a pretty impressive feat in it's own right!!!)  Thank you Kate!

It looks like I got the pictures on, so I'll give you one of Gil's face when he first saw the TV

(Obviously, there's a learning curve on size and placement of pictures on this blog, but I'm pleased to be starting.)

On the health front, the new pain and nerve rehab drugs appear to be making a difference.  We're hopeful that the neuropathy is going to reverse itself.  
So the beat goes on.
