Thanks for all the well wishes gang. I just got home and wanted to share a little of the details... Late Saturday night my Mom was taken to the emergency room in Little Rock (3.5 hours away).... my aunt called me at 4AM and away I went. No one was sure exactly what was going on. She had been feeling some apparently strong pain behind her rib cage, below the heart. While the ER folks weren't sure what it was her blood test showed an elevated white blood cell count.

Long story short she has now been diagnosed with ACL leukemia. While all cancers suck this is actually the 'better' of the types of leukemia to have apparently. She's still in the hospital but doing well. Their still not sure what caused the pain that started this whole process but she's going to stay until they figure it out.

Again I thank you all for the kind words and thoughts. Now as reality goes, I'm buried with two days of catch up work both at the office and at home so I more than likely won't be getting to the post until Friday for those that are waiting on stuff from me. Have no fear though, it will be in your hands very soon.

Your pal,

Jim
