Thanks again for all your messages and prayers. Ronnie's doctors discontinued all of his pain medication except for Methadone, and they are cutting down on that also. He looks a little better, is able to walk better and he's eating again, but his blood count is all messed up and he will have to continue the three dialysis treatments every week even though he doesn't like it. Karen, Jason and Ashley are doing everything they can for him, but at this point it will take a miracle to cure him. He decided to spend one or two days a week at my house and I will do all that I can to make him happy and comfortable. I'm leaving for California early tomorrow morning to visit my son Alan and his family and will be home on Monday. I'm taking my new iPad with me and I'll try to contact you. When I return, I will print out all of your wonderful messages and give them to Ronnie. Better get some sleep -- I have to be up at 5 a.m. Have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend. Love, Annette
