Thank You

Thank you all for your kind words. My sister has always been a strong person, and is holding up as well as can be expected given the circumstances.

Nancy posted this about my nephew's son in the Coffee Shop forum:

"Things are looking better, Lisa. Thank you for asking. Al's sister was telling him last night that they are teaching the parents how to do the necessary monitoring etc. and if they feel they can manage it correctly, they might be able to take him home this weekend."


Again, thank you all for your support.

Al, just found this thread and I'm happy that the little guy is improving. Condolences to your sister, you and your families. Your brother in law had a talent that will continue to be enjoyed through his sculptures.
