Hi, Nicole,
That's two of us. How has the teaching been going? Are you back in the classroom yet?

I’m here sporadically. Not much action in this ghost town anymore.

Hi, Lynda,
No, there's not much going on here, is there? Have you heard from anyone else?

Hi, Lynda, No, there's not much going on here, is there? Have you heard from anyone else? We had a flash group going for a little bit but it petered out quickly. Not too much interest in it anymore, I guess. I rejoined Scrawl but a lot of the old group is gone from there, so I've just been keeping to myself lately unless I get an email notification that someone has posted in here. |

HA! How's life? And what's changed? Oh, well that's a whole big barrel of worms! I'll just give you the very short version. I've been diagnosed with a neuro-disease similar to Alzheimer's. The symptoms and outcome are almost identical, however the process happens much faster, with an average life expectancy of 5-8 years from time of diagnosis. I was diagnosed almost 2 years ago. But...the good news is that I'll be able to watch reruns of my old favorite shows and it'll be like seeing them for the first time! |

Omg Jamey, I’m so damn sorry. it is what it is? Nothing anyone here on Earth can do about it, it's all in God's hands. So I'll just do the best I can with what I've got! |

I don't imagine finishing your book series ranks high on the bucket list, but I have to tell you, I just reread Hatch about a year ago and loved it all over again.

I thought I had someone to help with the writing but it fell through. My daughter is too busy with work to take over, so it's quite likely the story will not be told. But yes, it is not on my high priority list anymore along with many things that used to be. It's amazing how your perspective changes when news like this is delivered? |

Yeah, the things we thought were so very important and urgent years ago suddenly become insignificant. Love and prayers to you and yours, Jamie. I can't begin to fathom what you and the family must be going through. |

I can't begin to fathom what you and the family must be going through. well I'm still kickin' at this point. Just recently found out that Bruce Willis was diagnosed with the same thing, only I have more hair than he does. I started a YouTube channel to document my decline as there aren't many POV's from the patient, only from researchers and caregivers. |

my wife is a self employed bookkeeper and a client of hers gave her a used laptop to give to me to help keep my mind active. Since my laptop was 21 years old and my desktop is 15 I have to say this is an improvement! So maybe I'll be able to do a little scribbling!

Scribble your heart out I'll try to do some work on the sequel to Hatch. This is going to require a lot of sticky notes |
