Today may be extra rough for Garry -- it's the 1st week and his 2nd of 3 days in a row of driving back and forth for his clinical trial treatments.
He struggles with having to get out of bed at 6 am to make the journey.

Finally opened your Christmas card today Garry (Amy gets home in a few days from visiting her mom). For some reason, I pooped back on here (I mean popped, but I will keep the the typo).

Anyway, keep your head up and know you are loved.

Aloha

Thank you, Steve. Please give my love to Amy, and know I miss you both.

Well, everyone- I hope this isn’t my final update, but I’m currently at the hospital, feeling very tired, nauseous, weak, and a lot of difficulty speaking. No appetite whatsoever. I know this can’t go on much longer. It’s clearly evident I won’t see any of you again. I’m fading. But, if I haven’t said it already, you *ALL* need to know how special you are to me and always have been, and you all need to know the love I have for *ALL* of you will go with me to my grave and into eternity.
It’s been a joy.
RIPH

Garry - whatever happens to you. To ALL of us. It *has* been a joy to call you our friend. You always reminded me of my father and my brother. And yeah, my E/Gunny. So much love.

My heart is breaking. Know how much I love you and that I carry you in my heart every single day and I always will. I know there is an awesome group of parrotheads anxiously waiting for you at the heavenly tiki bar, but damn...I'm just not ready to let you go. I wish you peace as you embark on this part of the journey. Sending you a big BEG hug...hope you can feel it. :cry: :cry: :cry: M3
