Jeff - As a "minor leaguer" in the game of life I have never been very good at hitting the curve balls that have been thrown at me. As I read about your situation I am totally impressed with how you have been handling the surreal curves that have been tossed your way. Pardon the dumb baseball analogies, but you are a "major league" class act that may slump occasionally, but always comes up with a way to break out of it. If you don't believe me just listen to your kids and realize how much they hold you in high regard. I am not trying to downplay the seriousness of your predicament. The problem with your Mom could not have come at a worse time. But I am relieved to know that your wife still cares greatly about her as well. I hope your Mom responds positively to treatment and gets better. If that is not the Lord's plan know that you have been blessed with an awesome parent who has been instrumental in raising a great son and father. As they say in church, "may the peace of the Lord be with you." We are all with you, thinking about you, and praying for you and your family.
