David the Encourager


When Bill heard my diagnosis he called his brother David to let him know what was going on with us. Ever the philosopher, David said," Here's a truism for you to hold on to. Things are never as bad or as good as they seem at first." If you think about it, I think he's probably right. Next, he encouraged Bill by saying ,"With all the progress that is being made in cancer research there is a good chance that Mary will live longer than you!" And there you have it my friends.

Another great pic- they look so happy to be there together in spite of the weather.
David is full of deep thoughts, and his father's dry wit.
David told me that you'd probably outlive he & William both!
We just never know exactly what a day will bring, do we? xo
