I just wrapped up a really tough 10 months. As many of you know I’m fighting cancer, CL leukemia to be exact. Back last February I was going through some immunoglobulin infusions when I suffered a stroke on my right side. I’ve gained some movement back in my arm but none in my fingers to be of any use to me. I can’t sign my name I can’t snap my fingers can’t count money. I can still play a little guitar nothing like I used to but it is good to strum and sing. I’ve dealt with it OK and I haven’t become too bitter. I also just finished up six months of chemotherapy treatments in December and now they’re telling me I have a spot on my liver that they want to look at. It wasn’t there six months ago. This is on top of the fact that my band played a New Year’s gig at a pretty nice place and my very good friend the drummer was killed on the way home from it. A guy fell asleep at the wheel and crossed into his lane. This guy and I were very good friends we were very close and he was an observant Jew, who by his own admission did not know Jesus.
