Update on Mom


Our family got some great news at the end of July. My mom had a biopsy to make sure there were no lingering issues following her previous cancer surgery. Everything came back clear and good. My niece (in the pic) sang "Happy Lucky Day" to her that night, which I think is great. Thanks to everyone who has been sending their thoughts to my mother during this time. Sal in NYC asks about her a lot and I appreciate that, Sal. Thanks as well to all those people that didn't make it, but helped medical science learn something that led to my mom being OK. My mother-in-law, who I never met, died of breast cancer when my wife was 16. She and thousands of others paved the way for what we know now. Because of her, my wife began getting mammograms at an early age and has never had an issue. Because of her, new treatments were available for my mom and she has been able to use early detection to stop things before they become dire. In a way, she will help all four of the people in this picture to continue to grow happy and healthy.

Also, please send positive thoughts to one of my radio brothers who is going through his second battle with cancer. We all trust he can beat this thing like he did the first time. TQ, we love you.

And for everyone whose life is being challenged by cancer, my thoughts are with you tonight.
