Oh Man

Damn. Damn. Chris Muir lost his sister Friday ~ to colon cancer, if I can read her blog correctly through the tears. It hits home in a peculiar way when you see your birth year on a memorial page, especially when the girl at the keyboard looks so vital. So alive. Bingley and I lost a vibrant, feisty, IRISHY aunt to colon cancer. Tore us up. And she had been the fruit/vegetable/athletic one of all the 6 siblings. It's a scourge. An almost completely preventable scourge. And I don't think we start checking for it soon enough.

Stephen Green asks that we send love and, if I could figure out how, I would. If someone has an email for Chris, let us know, eh?
