Update to all my brainstorming friends who know about my Mom

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 16:56:32 GMT

Most of my audiences have been entertained with one or more delightful stories about my Mom who is now 96. Unfortunately, she fell last Friday morning and fractured her hip. By Friday evening she had a replacement of the broken part. Isn't modern medicine amazing? What is equally amazing is that after two days of refusing to open her eyes or respond at all, she suddenly opened them and is smiling and laughing with us.
She still has a way to go and is still in ICU. If you want to send her a get well note, send it to my email or through any of the contact me sections on this web site.
