Just a quick update on Scotty boy. Yesterday's bloodwork looked a lot better. All those sinister unclassifieds and immature cells were gone and replaced with a half-decent anc. His platelets took a huge dive and the hemoglobin was a little lower than I would have liked so Im still on heart attack stand-by but feel very, very relieved that things look more normal. I cant even begin to tell you how worried I have felt lately, its been one thing after another, anyhoo...

We have just returned from Give Kids the World in Orlando and had lots of fun and shopping but one of us will update on that in the next day or two.

And as it is almost Christmas, and as it is tradition (here and at "that other site") I will leave you with the best song ever written. No2 in the charts at Christmas when I was 18, beaten to the top spot by "two gays and a drum machine" (The Pet Shop Boys) according to Shane.
