We're getting slapped with a lot of reality this trip. Just before we left, our next door neighbor, Duane, had a heart attack and ended up in the hospital. We visited him in intensive care before we left. We got a few progress reports, but haven't heard anything lately. Diann had a stroke and went into a coma. We've kept in touch, mostly through Jon and Amy about her. We got the call from Cousin Ed. Cousin Tom died in his sleep. Tonight we find that Diann has died. We feel for everyone, and will miss Diann.
Tough stuff.
