Report on Johnny:

1. He is moving even better than the last time we were there.

2. He is working on his speaking of words with a speech therapist - a guy with two brain surgeries is lucky to speak at all. :o)

3. Only a few hairs left on his head, but who cares about that for a man, no big deal.

4. He wanted food from Taco Bell so we took that plus some for us so all chowed down on Taco Bell.

5. Saw how he takes raw coffee beans, puts them in a popcorn machine and roasts them.

6. Looked at his garden patch and he has seeds planted and some herbs that are volunteer are already up - thyme/rosemary/cilantro are ready to be used.

7. He and Bob went over some electronic stuff that needs fixing. They also went over an exclusive helicopter that takes up most of the table. This is not a toy - think thousands of dollars.

8. Bob told stories from his earth scientist/geology years traveling the world to find oil to put gasoline in your cars.

The picture Johnny posted was at the end of the visit as we were leaving.

After we left, Bob made the comment we all talked for two and a half hours without stopping and didn't talk politics at all. Johnny has had quite a life with outstanding accomplishments in the military which were noted by the military with a stack of accommodations. Not many people would walk away from a high paying electronic job the day after 911 and re-enlist in the Air Force.

Johnny has his first chemo this coming Thursday. Please pray for him that this chemo will stop the cancer.

I take umbrage with #4. I didn't want it. It works and has veggies. Personally, I don't consider Taco Bell real food.

And thank you for all the kind things you and Bob did. It's good to have friends close.

You are a great friend and I’m glad Johnny has you and your husband. I feel very bad about his illness.
