Mom-
Three years have passed since you left us.........I haven't written in here, but I have in my heart, every day that has gone by. It doesn't seem possible that our lives can go on without you, yet they do. They are just not the same. Living on memories is just not enough most of the time, but we make do. I'd rather sit down and have some good conversations again.....bounce some things off of you, share in the joys, vent about the pains, cry about the sorrows......

Dad is still struggling at times I think. I don't think it matters to him that it's been 3 days or 3 yrs......it's all the same to him......I know he is doing the best he can, but I'm not sure it's full of the gusto he might otherwise have.

Do you see us? can you see the boys and how they are growing? You must be so proud. Are you surrounded by lilacs? Great music? Good bread? good coffee?? hee hee......gotta have those things, huh? Funny thing is, we like those things now too.

I miss you........I need you.........

I love you.
Always,
Niki-honey <ndaubach@cox.net>

I think about Mom often, especially since her birthday just past us on Feb 24th. She would have been 67 years young. What affects me the most was how willing she was to spread her love, unconditionally. Still love ya Mom. Paoli

Dear Mom,

I can't believe it's been a year already today.....it's like no time has passed at all....and yet we all have moved on with our lives....not necessarily without thinking of you or missing you, but time has gone by just the same.

I can't believe how many times I want to pick up the phone and call you to talk......my chest weighs heavy when I realize I can't.

Today Jeff and Eric and Brian and I wrote notes to you and attached them to balloons and launched them off to whereever your spirit lies......I hope you get them. I hope that whereever you are you are happy and healthy and free........

I love you so much.
I will be with Dad this weekend....you will be on our minds and in our hearts even stronger than usual.....

Miss you,
Niki <ndaubach@cox.net>

I must say I like thinking of you as the "Greek Lady"! We have more angels entering Heaven, so I am sure you are busy with teaching flying lessons. I am also sure you are smiling right now too, as I am - thinking of your world and all we here on earth cannot comprehend. The after-life is beautiful in my mind.

God Bless,

Dear Mom,

We're about to begin another new year......but it will be a year without you, and that doesn't feel good. You've been on my mind so much lately.....I keep wanting to call you. We saw a great movie the other day, and all through it, I kept thinking, "I have to tell mom about this one....she will like it". Jeff got a new CD for his birthday, and after listening to it, he said he knew you would enjoy it. He's right. I love it, and I know you would too. I can't believe that there are times that I still find myself surprised that you aren't here with us anymore.....there is still so much we want to share with you. I just hope that our belief that you are "around" in spirit is really true, except that I wish we could have all of you here.

Well, I've got things to do, as usual, so I'll be off. I think about you always and miss you more.

I love you.

Dear Niki and Keith,
Stopped by to let you know that you will ALWAYS be in our thoughts and prayers. GOD BLESS. And Niki, don't get down because people aren't signing in! It is true that they just don't know what to say. ANGEL COLBY's site doesn't get the sign ins that it did before he passed, and I understand that it is hard to come back for people once they have given their condolences. But I'm sure that ANGEL ANGIE is in the thoughts and prayers of many, not to mention our hearts. You both take care and we're sending lots of love from above - ANGEL COLBY JAMES COLE AND CREW.

Niki and Keith - What an amazing tribute to an amazing woman! You're in my thoughts all the time, sorry I haven't been signing in to tell you that! I'm so sorry for your loss. Grief is such a horrible, strange thing. I'm glad you have so many people to love and support you through this.

Dear Keith and Niki, Angie and you both have been in my heart and my mind everyday since she crossed over. Yesterday two of my friends and I celebrated the ancestors with our own Day of The Dead here in Oakland. I had a photo of Angie downloaded yesterday and photos of some of my other ancestors, along with some bones from Greece and some pears for the altar. We made a beautiful ritual in honor of the beloved dead. In the dark , with candles lit, I drummed while we chanted their names---beautiful harmonic sounds which are believed to carry their unique energies on the sonic of their names. Then we each said invocations of gratitude and respect and love for the wisdom, guidance, love, and constant companionship of the each of those we wanted to honor. I have been asking Angie's loved and departed ones to help her cross, and it feels like she is finding her way... We sang some songs and finished by eating a giant, juicy, ripe, perfect pomegranate ("granetta" in spanish), which is an ancient universal symbol for the divine feminine in her life-giving, fertile, seed bearing form. Then we danced. Like all the cultures who recognize Death know, having a living relationship to Death always
constellates new life. I am so glad that you got to be there, Keith, for Dia de Los Muertos with your clan. I miss her so much. It has been hard for me to get the courage to call. I can only imagine the pain you are both feeling at her loss. Know that you are in my prayers. Much love, Terry

What a beautiful table of remembrance!!! Niki, you have done such an incredible job with this site, with capturing your mom's true essence. Without ever having met Angie, I feel that I know her somehow. I so look forward to reading about *your* first trip out to liberate some lilacs. When is lilac season there? You must share pictures then too, ok? Love,

I know everyone has already said this to you and you are probably numb to the words, but I will say it anyway � I am so sorry for your loss. I just learned of �The Greek Lady� today from a friend that knows true sorrow as you do Niki, and I am sorry my prayers were not there sooner for your Mom, but they have been there for your family and son. They will now be constant for the Angel in Heaven and the Angel still here with you. Brian is beautiful and I love to look into his smiling face.

Sending love and a lot of prayers,

Dear Mom,

We all miss you here.....we still feel your presence, yet, we are selfish enough to want all of you! I know we had time to talk while you were still here on this earth, and I know that I told you all of the things I appreciated about you, but it seems like there is always something you forget to say......that you hope you will have another opportunity to say later.....sometimes you do, sometimes you don't.....one of the many things that you gave to me...one of the strongest, was your wide variety of taste in music.....it's one of my strongest memories of growing up....we ALWAYS had music....many types, many sounds, and sometimes some of the music could only be listened to with the volume turned high!! What you listened to most of the time was not typical of what my friends parents listened to, and FOR THAT I AM GRATEFUL!!, but the variety gave me an appreciation for all music. You spent hours making "super tapes" for our road trips, or just for listening to at home. I'll never forget how every year, on our birthdays, you would wake Paul and I up in the morning with The Beatles "Birthday" blaring through the speakers! It was a tradition I picked up and carried on with Jeff, and now with the boys.....Music has always been a huge part of my life and to this day I am out of sorts if I can't have music playing.....it's the one thing that will probably always remind me of you.....every old song from my youth, and every new song that comes out today that I think you would like......when the music flows around me, it feels like you are with me.....Other things I remember are like how every year for my birthday, you would bring or send me a beautiful spring bouquet of flowers for the first day of spring.....I will miss that, but I guess I can just go out and collect or buy them myself now....the thought and the memory will be the same even if it doesn't come from you anymore......I learned so much about cooking and food and dining presentation from you....I still have much to learn, but the rest I will have to do on my own....always with you in mind though.

I think the greatest gift you gave to me though, was your total love and committment to being a good mother to me and Paul. I'm not sure what it cost you personally, but there was never a moment that I questioned your love and support, and over the years I have learned just how hard it was for you to make the decisions you had to make in your first marriage, all to better the lives of your children. What a courageous and brave thing you did, and what a positive difference it made in our lives! It's leading by those examples that have given me the courage and optimism to face and handle all the hurdles in my own life.......you were your own person, Mom, and the past few years I have felt like I have finally come into being my own person as well......all thanks to your love and committment and support......and also thanks to the great choice you made in bringing Dad(Keith)into our lives.....what a blessing that was for all of us........and I have to say that the love the two of you shared made the standard of expectation for the rest of us really high! It's rare what you two had, and something all of us aspire to have.......it was obvious to us how much you two were in love....even after 35 yrs!

Your time here was much too short, but nobody can say that it wasn't a full life lived. To quote part of a song by Green Day:
"It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life"

I love you with all of my heart! I hope you can still feel it. I hope you can still see it. I hope your days are filled now with the overflowing love and appreciation we all have for what you gave to us while you were here on this earth........you will be with me forever!

Niki, Nicolette, Niki-honey.............P.S. by the way, when the lilacs begin blooming, where exactly do I cut them?? : ) <ndaubach@cox.net>

Goodbye, dear, dear, Angie. I will always remember you as a great adventurer, with a wholehearted approach to life and a generosity of spirit that is inspiring and healing to all you have known. I can't yet conceive of this world without you. I am singing a Yoruba song, which the community sings to call in the ancestors to help with the crossing, from this world to the other world..."Oh, blessed and revered ancestors, may you help this precious one fly the long featherless flight into the arms of the ones who love her waiting on the other side..." "moyubai fe fe iku, moyubai, fe fe, iku..." I love you and thank you for your friendship from the bottom of my heart. Knowing you has made a true and meaningful difference in my life. I will miss you deeply. Terry

Dear Ones,
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for keeping me in the loop of love and prayer, hope and despair, faith, and fury. The love and connection that you all eminate as a family and community of friends is a beautiful and amazing energy to be included in. There is a great healing going down here, regardless of the outcome of life or death. I feel a sacred privilege and deep honor in being part of this whole...for this is a truly holy place of belonging.
Love, Terry Ebinger

We also send our love and big hugs to you both - just returned tonight from 2 weeks in Iowa with my Dad and were sad to get Niki's email - what an incredible family you have!

Hello from chilly Colorado.

We just wanted to write and say that we are verrry
sorry to hear of the latest medical developments.

A person I knew wrote a book about his
experience with this miserable disease--it is a
remarkable book--I recommend it highly--It is
"Not Fade Away" by Peter Barton.
He hopes to help others understand the imcomprehensible
a bit better and he does a terrific job.
It is not a sentimental book, I promise!!

We are keeping the faith, Angie!!
Let us know if you need/want visitors.
Love
Gale and Warren too

Hello Angie, just returned from the Midwest this afternoon and received the information on your "new battles". While we were out in Brookings for a day we drove around looking for the old "haunts" and of course had to stop in for a Nic's Burger, still serving on a tissue! Amazing how the area keeps on changing but everytime you go by the COLLEGE THEATER AND MIKES RESTURANT it still brings back memories of the best chicken fried steaks served with iceberg lettuce quarters and homemade thousand isle dressing.
Of all the Greek ladies I've met your still the best, just know we are praying for you here in the NW.

Angie, Diane just emailed me about your most recent set-back. Rest assured that we will all pray it's only temporary. You might not be aware that Ron Donley died on July 9 in Nashville. His battle with cancer was long and hard too. Mine was just short and a little speed bump! I'll pass this on to as many classmates as I can so you have their prayerful support as well. Al and Sue are in South Africa right now, but we'll let him know somehow. Glad to see that you gals are getting together soon too. Al, Tony and I went to see Ron in May and it was a blessing for all that we did. I know Diane and Connie and whomever else will be there will take good care of you and extend our thoughts to you too.

However, you both sounded so "Keith and Angie" that I was just happy to be chattting with you! I'm relieved that the tennis matches finally got played and you didn't need to just stare at each other...though I doubt seriously that that ever happenned! Your day sounded incredibly busy!

Everyone,

Niki asked that I add an email I sent her today, September 5.

Niki,

Your mother is facing this with grace and optimism in spite of the odds against her. I know you'll find a way to tell the truth about what the future holds for her and yet explain how she prefers to look at each day -- a wedding, a wedding dress, a visit from old friends, phone calls from Mexico, the love and best-friendship of a good man, the support of her children, and the love of her family -- rather than at the days she won't have.

And I share your anger.

Greetings and Happy Anniversary - Now it does make sense why Mars was shining so brightly in the skies on Aug. 27th.

This morning when I awakened
And saw the sun above,
I softly said, "Good morning, Lord,
Bless everyone I love."
And right away I thought of you
And said a loving prayer,
That he would bless you specially,
And keep you free from care.
I thought of all the happiness
A day could hold in store,
I wished it all for you because
No one deserves it more.........Luv, connie

Good talking to you guys this weekend. Sorry it's been ANOTHER tough week......gotta get those counts up!! I guess it's probably nice though to have a break in the action since they have put your radiation and thalidomide on hold.....keep us posted on labs this week. I hope you are able to get your counts back up without need of transfusions. Look forward to hearing about the MRI results too....when is that again? Fri? Hope it confirms what the M-protein says.....that the myeloma is not active and that the tumor is shrinking.

Hope your Sunday plans went well.....how was the shower Mom? and the Rockies game for you Dad?

The party here was a success! Brian had a great time and even ate some of his birthday muffin (while the rest of us ate his cake!)! School starts in two days, and it is currently horribly hot here!!

Talk to you soon,
I love you.

Hi Guys
I wrote another message and it disappeared into cyberspace--
so I will repeat.
It is raining and cold here in SMA so we are heading
NORTH and will be there in a few weeks.
Lannie is doing her Disco and Polyester show at the
Taste of Cherry Creek September 10---she plays Gloria
Half-Gaynor verrrry well. Time to dig out the platforms!!
Don't forget to watch Antonio in "Pancho Villa" on
September 7th--will you recognize the golf course where
the battles were staged???--directly across from it.
It was a riot seeing guys in revolutionary uniforms
with muskets and BIG sombreros next to guys in
plaid golf pants with 7 irons and putters!!
We think about you a lot---saw Jenny the other day and
I know she is jealous that we will get to see you.
Gotta go for now
We are "keeping the faith"
Say hi to my favorite children!
Love
Gale and Warren too

Hey guys!! Just got a chance to look at the website finally. Good update. Guess you've both had your appts now, so I'm anxious to hear the news on both fronts. Hope your procedure went well Dad, and that mom's visit with the radiation doc went well too.

I see lots of people are writing in...some are my friends as well, and I appreciate their support of you and me. Jack's reference to "heeeyyyyyy" I think you are aware of....you know, when Brian says that anytime something is amiss! He and Laura got a real kick out of that when we were all together in July at Va Beach. I sure do miss them.

Anyway, I see Dana is keeping up as well. We should ask how Michael Doctor is doing too.

We're finding LOTS of nice places for less money in Knoxville now too.....looking into that area more....it's a couple hours west of JC. Well, lots to do as usual. Time for Brian to eat....this am he had 1/4 c of rice krispies (dry) and his rice milk, along with 1/4 of a banana! We're getting there....slowly!

Take care. Love and hugs,

I've loved reading the journal...learning about Janet is priceless...and then learning that you and us are being "blamed" or was it "credited" for Beery's making the best decision in their lives.

Well Janet HAS been spotted in the Eagle/Vail area--
You do know that she worked as a concierge for the
Brown Palace and was fired for consorting with the
Governor (Roy Romer)---no fraternizing with the guests!!!!
(But that doesn't apply to ME)!!
So it would not surprise me at all to hear that she
has applied for the job
opening at the Beaver Creek Lodge--
(Don't you love the name)!! Actually, I think it's the
Lodge at Cordillera but I like the former better!!

Remember when we were not willing to live in Mexico--
well, we are looking at lots!
How crazy would it be to build a house in Mexico at our
age?????????
We owe or (blame)it all on you and the Curras!!

We HATE to hear that you are in pain but the
new drugs are going to be effective from everything we've
read---
Nothing more to report at the moment.
I will definitely keep you posted!!
Thanks for the update Keith--
see you both soon

Love

We're so happy to hear from you, Keith, and to get an update. We're praying that the meds do their work. You forgot to mention that Angie colored her hair red -- it shows that her fighting spirit is still there.

Hi Angie and Keith. Just sent off an e-mail, but thought I'd add to this as well. You're certainly always on our minds with the hope that you'll get to feeling better with all that modern medicine has to offer!. Loved the journal bit about Janet. Amazing what a web site can reveal! Take care. Love, Susan and Bill

A little gossip!!
Janet has been spotted impersonating a lawyer!!
Don't know how they found out that she was a fraud
but she is being sued as we speak.
It's a "Catch me if you can" real life scenario--
and don't we all believe that Janet is capable of it.
I half expect her to show up in San Miguel at any
moment--maybe as a Pediatrician???
Do you ever wonder if bi-polar people have more fun??
Anyway, I knew you would get a chuckle out of it!!
We're hoping the medicines are working and think
about you every single day!!
Love
Gale and Warren too

Look forward to seeing you all soon.

Well damn!! We really hated to hear the news--
however, we also know that there are some promising new
drugs out there--we are optimistic that you will find the right one(s)!
All your friends in San Miguel are missing you guys
and hoping for the best--we know you have talented
doctors and, of course, one of the best husbands/doctors
in the world!!
Please tell Keith we are thinking of both of you!!
We'll see you in September.
Say hi to my favorite children!!

Dear Angie and Keith,
It was so good to talk to you last night--much better than a cell phone cut-out version of your situation as we got it from Maria (although we gratefully appreciate her filling us in). You sound so strong, Angie, I am in awe! You have a great attitude although we know it must be so difficult. We've added more & more plants, more comfortable lawn furniture, and a better equipped kitchen--so your home in Paradise awaits anytime you want to visit! Thank you, Keith, for the wonderful TLC that we know you are dishing out to your beautiful lady. Keep the faith, Namaste.

Oh goodie!! Good news. Glad it's nothing to be concerned with now, and I hope the stupid pain just leaves you alone to enjoy your east coast trip! I hope Dad's pain leaves him alone too. Hi to Bob and Jenny. Hope you have good weather.

Be safe and we'll be in touch. At least we'll be in the same time zone for a bit!! Talk soon.

Love to you both!!

P.S. Do they have lilacs out there that we need to warn of your liberating habit???, hee hee :-) - Tuesday, May 27, 2003 10:00 PM CDT

Ha ha ha, the lilac liberator is at it again!!
Good to hear it.
Sorry to hear of the pain though. I am with you on the positive thinking and refusing to stop living.....what a waste of time. Who knows how long it will be, but like you, I vote for as long as possible, and who would like to waste it "waiting for it to end"......especially if on the other end, you find it didn't!

Definitely keep us posted. I am glad you updated. I check in often. Sorry I didn't get to talk to you on the phone yesterday....you missed Brian too! Oh well, next time.

Have a good trip east.
I love you guys,

Thanks for the update and that you are seeing the wildflowers. San Miguel - where did that sweet dusty calm wonderful place go???? Vic just had his rent go from $190. to $650. a month. Can you believe it!!!! Needless to say we are out of there. Marisella is out as well as her rent went to $650 as well. The only person paying and staying is Dan Rufert - his place is going for $3000. a month. Can this be true???? Time to take some deep breaths and wonder what is really going on. Will send cherry news next time - even if I have to tell you untruths. Take care Marjorie

Hi guys!

Glad you are enjoying the great outdoors! We are doing the same......one of the few short times we can do that here before it gets un-Godly hot and humid! However, I guess we will be spared that this summer! Wonder what it will be like in Va?! I've been out cleaning up the dead winter stuff off the plants and we've been picnicing and biking and today is the first day of baseball practice.

Glad to hear that your testing came back negative for lupus.....not something you really wanted to deal with....but then again, neither was myeloma, huh? hee hee Hope the side effects continue to lessen and leave you alone more and more. Sorry to hear about Dad's thumb and back.....hopefully both will recover with braces and time and excercise and meds! Maybe he's enjoying himself TOO MUCH with the remodeling?? :)

Hope you have a wonderful mountain wildflower hike. Wish I was going with you.
Hello to all at Spinnaker Lane.

Glad to hear you made it across the border ok and don't have the worries that could come with trying to cross if war breaks out. Enjoy your visits with your friends along the way. Talk to you hopefully on Fri or Sat at home in Colorado. They are getting hit with a big snow storm now, so hopefully all will be cleared up by the time you drive in.
It was great to talk to you.
Love,

Dearest Angie...I read your journal entry and zeroed in on a particular comment, and I quote:

"I think its time for a good trashy novel�.suggestions anyone?�

Let me be the first to inform you that Tom Robbins is due to release another walk into adventureland mid-April!!! I got the 'hit' to ask a store manager who looked it up on his system...tha's how I know.

Can't wait to see you both again. I leave for a retreat in Hawaii March 21st, so I'll be celebrating Dad's Birthday from there! I'll send some Aloha his way that day...for sure!

Hugs and Stay in Touch!

Hi Dear Ones-
SOOOO good to hear from you in sunny Mexico and know that all is well, as it should be. We've thought of you often and have hoped that your "immersion" back into S.M.A. is just what the doctors ordered!! We'll be anxious to see you soon, and hear about your latest adventures. A few of the "hardcore" group of med. wives are plotting a reunion since we never see each other any more.....think we may need to do that when you're here--it would be so much more fun! We'll be on hand to toast Papo's B-day and your's too! Travel safely in Vera.....we found a new/old "silver cloud" as I am being weaned off Old Blue because it may soon be Kyle's frat mobile (I don't want to go there....)Be well and we'll be waiting for you at this end!! Lots of love, Jimmy and Lars

After we got off the phone, Brian was quick to tell Jeff that you were coming to see him!! Oh, and you know the banana that he picked up to talk into like a phone? Well, later he sat on it!! He came to me holding it while I was talking to you and it was mushing out of the seems of the peel and he was gagging looking at it!! What a goof!

Anyway, good to talk to you. Hope you liked the photos I sent too.....thanks for the info about Quincy and De.....I'll call soon.

If I don't catch up with you before you leave on your trip, have a good one and drive safely. Say hi to Dick and Diane and Moriah, oh and Bob and Jenny too!

Hi you two,
We're sitting here with tears in our eyes (tears of joy, for sure) at learning about your fabulous news!!!!! How exciting - we are truly so happy - and we WILL come to Mexico now. Don't know what made me think of calling today - just wanted to send TG wishes and see what you were up to. Called David & Dees number and left a message and then came in to see if we could find a current phone number for you on the web site - that's when we got the good news. Can't wait to talk - please email us back you phone number.

We're here for Thanksgiving - have Marcy (my daughter) and her Mike coming in tomorrow through Monday, plus some others for dinner. We'll be away 2 weeks for Christmas, and then leaving mid-January to go to Iowa for a couple weeks to celebrate my Dad's 90th BD and have a big family reunion. Sure hope you'll be through this way between Jan 4 and 17.

Happy thanksgiving and happy wishes to all, love S&M

Dear Angie and Keith,

We are back in Oregon where the fall colors are better than ever. Stunningly gorgeous, I must say. We're also awaiting the call from our daughter so that we can rush to San Francisco for the birth of our first grandchild.

We are also praying and hoping that your three-month test is going well and that they'll give you a clean bill of health.

Great update!!

Love to hear all you have to say. So, you're growing hair again, huh? Should I pull out some hair clips or rubber bands for you while you're here?? hee hee.....I bet it's a nice change though.

It's cold here.....Halloween was freezing.....short trip out and not as many trick or treaters as usual. Eric was a Colorado Rockies baseball player....Brian was a stegasaurus!

Well, gotta run. Glad you're hanging in there.....see you soon.
Love,

Dear Angie, Ihave been wanting to contact you for a very longtime. Am sorry to hear that you are ill, hope you will be on the mend soon. I think back to the times that I worked for your parents in the Eat Shoppe and what a wonderful part of my life that was. I have a son Tal that lives in Denver, he is married and has two little boys that dance with Dinger the masqcot at the Rockies games, we were there on the 20th of September, a very fun time. Hope you reply back to my note. Wishing youy well.

Wow! Another great update. You may feel like you don't have much to say or report, but every bit of that was really welcome! Always better than the alternative, eh!?

So, you guys are transforming your bodies, huh? You should join the BFL challenge and win the $250K......wouldn't that make your lives better??! hee hee

Enjoy the warm weather and colorful leaves.......it's going to change soon!

Lots of love,

It was great chatting with you guys the other day.......it sounds like most things are really going well. Mom, you sound so much more like yourself, it's great!

Hopefully when you come out next month for your check up, we can do something more fun and relaxing than when you were here before!

Talk to you soon.

Hope the bad side effects are becoming less each day. Remember, healing also takes place while you're sleeping!

All right.....it's been long enough.......time for a new update!! I mean, I heard you have had moments of feeling good enough to get into the kitchen and cook again......and that you even stayed up late one night to eat De's big roast dinner.......so, let's have it. What about Dad's medical news too....what is scheduled when and how are things working out on that front??

I'm tied up at the moment with home decorating projects......Eric and Brian want to sleep in the same room together, so we bought bunk beds and we are moving them into Brians room.....right now, they are both in Erics room while I strip the wallpaper border and paint over the next few days.....ugh......if I didn't have shoulder/wrist problems before, I will probably just aggrivate them (along with my back/neck now too!) now! Oh well......the price I pay to make my children happy! Hopefully I'll be done this weekend.

Well, hope all continues to be going better.
Love you guys,

Niki

Glad to see you have had time to enter in the journal. Sorry that the nausea continues.........guess it's just your cross to bear........better than it could be I guess. Hope that it subsides soon.

Things are different around here without you......but I'm sure you are happy to be back in your own space without so many RULES!!hee hee

Enjoying the nice weather here.......hope you are having the same. Eric played QB yesterday at his game.....they lost but he made another running (sneaky reverse play) touchdown and had several great tackles (flags). The weather was perfect......it would have been the game for you to see if you could. Oh well....next year.

Well, hang in there. Talk soon.
Love from all of us (and kisses on the head from Brian!)

Angie,

I know there are more important things going on in your life right now, especially today, the 14th, but I just have to weigh in on the cigarette question! We never, ever smoked Lucky Strikes. Those and Camels were for old men like our dads, who were then probably at least in their forties. We smoked Pall Malls and nothing but when we got to the point that we really smoked. Maybe we smoked any old thing at first but Pall Malls were our first choice. Remembering that red package makes me want to rip into one! It was a thrill to have a brand-new pack, wasn't it?

Hang in there, Angie. I think of you every single day!

Love,

Mary

Dear Miss Goody Two Shoes,

You reckless and wild NEVER! We must have been thinking of that "other" Angie! I'm sure that "other" Dianne, Connie, Mary and Sandra would agree!
There, that fixes everything, huh?!

PS
It was Lucky Strikes.
Rumors, what rumors? You mean the one that said when we went to out of town BB touraments we didn't watch a whole game through 'cause we were too busy running around looking for---well, you know the rest of the story. Sure had fun, didn't we?!!

Your friend, that "other" Betty

Maybe you were smoking Marlboros. I'm sure I had Luckies. I suspect, though, that all we could manage is one pack among us so it must have been the same brand.

Let those rumors roll!

I think its time I put these nasty rumors to rest! I thought you were my friends! Are you sure Dianne and Betty that you're remembering this correctly? Now the black olives ring a bell, but the lucky strikes? One would begin to think I had a wild and reckless adolescence.

The real story is that I "hung out" with the wild ones.

Love,

the greeklady
- Friday, August 09, 2002 at 12:37 PM (CDT)

Dear Angie and Keith,

You both are meeting this challenge with your usual grace, humor and originality. What spirit! It must have a Greek origin, probably coming from all those Greek olives we ate as kids so that our mothers wouldn't know we had been puffing away on those Lucky Strikes in your kitchen. Keep it going.

HI Angie and Keith. Vic and I have just returned after 2 months in the US. We thought we were going for 2 weeks so we did not take addresses tel no or computor with us. So we have been totally out of touch. We passed all the doc tests and we had plenty. But Vic had a bout with walking pneumonia and that stalled us for quite a while. We had a house to stay in as a friend was in Europe. (very fortunated).

I just today was able to get to your Web page and damn you sure do have a lot to deal with and your attitude and courage is remarkable. I think I might just give in to some complaining.

How about a car storey? We went to the VW dealer to buy new windshield wipers as we might be traveliing in the rain -came out with a new car- VW Jetta Wagon with 7,000 miles. It is so pretty! BUT we did not take the sticker off the old car and it took 5 hours to get across the border. Finally a sympathetic man told Vic to put the care in my name and be on our way. A solution Mexican style!!!

We will try to call tonight as we would love to hear your voices. Take care - love to you both.

Marjorie and Victor Heady <heady@unisono.net.mx>
San Miguel de Allened , GTO Mexico - Wednesday, August 07, 2002 at 10:31 AM (CDT)

Hey to the most uncomplaining girl I know,
When you're going thru ALL the brutal tests and the waiting, can't blame you for wanting only to think a couple of days ahead.
Bet reminiscing on some past " good times " helps. When you're in that mode, don't forget our High School days- the fun times at you're neat house; being so late for our first dance, 'cause we had to look `just right`, it was over when we finally got there; racing between `the bridges`; cruising the College looking for guys-we thought they were such grown-up men!-; being at the Eat Shoppe while you were working and couldn't wait for you to be done so we could all go get into trouble; trying to scrounge up enough money to buy a Bottle; etc, etc.
If you're looking for a few laughs, try the game Mad Gab. We've been playing it around here with Judy and family and can't believe the hours we spend on it. If you haven't heard of it, one hint of it's craziness is while in NM we played with the Kids, and Lorenzo sounded like he had a German accent while reading the card over and over not knowing what he was saying. Really got to my funny bone!
If you guys feel like having us visit while you're there, please let us know. We're not that far away.

Miss you and your `biggest healing gem`.
Love B and J

Hi little Cornhuskers! I've thought of you so often and hope you can feel our connection to you. Sure hope cather-in is doing her job...receiving and giving back. Today is my last day of "vacation" as tomorrow I return to the hollow halls of Centennial! Think I'll treat us both to one last machiotto at Starbuck's today--skol! I survived the Alma Babes' reunion--that was the most intense concentration of female energy ever to invade Barela Ct. The Big Red Tahoe had a tough time making it up the mountain passes with not only the precious cargo onboard, but the a/c couldn't run cool enough to suppress the hot flashes radiating within!
Anyhoo, we send our love and richest karma to all of you...Hang in there, we love you!

It was a fabulous outdoor get together. The champagne, conversation, chow, and weather were incredible.
That was the first Colorado night to be perfect in a
very long time. You and
De did a great job of putting it all
together!! (I'm sure Keith and David helped)!
We enjoyed meeting the family and seeing Bob and
Jenny too.
I am now asking Amazon not to sell me another
"depressing" book!!!! Soo when you return, I plan to
have more exhilarating literature to listen to.
Of course, I haven't heard back from Amazon to know
that they will comply!!
Good luck with your treatment in Omaha and remember
that you're coming to Denver when you return.
Looks like we'll still have the guest room for awhile.
Love
Gale and Warren too

I am so glad to hear this last round of chemo went much easier (if there is ever an easy chemo). Best of luck as you continue to take strides towards a cure.

What an inspiration you are Angie. Clearly, adversity can bring out the best in people. And it looks like you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. But don't get so comfortable at the new computer corner that Keith set up that it slows down your return here to Camelot. We want you back! Your up beat message made me cry, vamanos, vamanos...

Hi Angie,
A friend gave me your Web Site, knowing that I have a personal interest in your progress. My husband was recently diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma too. After 4 months of running back and forth to our local (pitiful) hospital he had a pathologial fracture of his left humorus --nothing funny about it though -- now we're treating in Pittsburgh and have high hopes for his complete recovery too. He is just home from his 2nd chemo-- he enters the hospital for 4 days and gets round the clock chemo, is this what you're doing? If his cells are where they need to be he will start having his bone marrow harvested too for an autologic transplant. If not, they may need to do more chemo (I've got my finger, toes, legs (well you get the picture) crossed that we're going to be done by the end of September too. Good luck to you too and I'd love to here from you.

Round 4 sounds terrible, but I always feel that at least you know the drug is working--not that you care when you're feeling so yukky. Hope Keith's heart is behaving!

Hi Angie!....was good to catch up on you and Niki too. ..We are all missing you too too much...saw Spot today who is doing very well....Deborah is here and we are working to get the FAM looking better and better. Bob is in Reno and was babysitting today...that should wear him to a frazzle. But he is enjoying it I am sure. VERY hot here....and as usual in dire need of rain. Have not had an opportunity to read the rain gauge in weeks...not a lot of news but hope you do something fun on the 4th...we will have a few out to the country I think...at least I got some American flag napkins so feel obligated to do something with them.I finally got to see the photos everyone is talking about!...at first I could not open the site...but yes...you are quite striking without all that excess hair. Commanding!....like it! ...well let me run and we will speak on the phone soon...Love,Miss J....oh and P.S....I made 12 new photos for the Casa de Cafe...the old ones were getting so weary.

A pat on the back for the effort that took....and I say that sincerely.....I know how hard it is to get there and sit comfortably and find the time to write, especially if you aren't feeling well. Glad that you are feeling better though....thanks for the calls of good wishes on our anniversary...you guys sound great!

I hope all goes well this week with the rest of the testing. I'm anxious to hear how it all comes together.

I'm sure I'll be talking to you soon.

I got to your website after visiting your grandson's site. Your daughter wrote in the journal that she was looking for multiple myeloma support for you. I happen to know of a very good organization that I'm sure could put you in contact with support groups. It's called The McCarty Cancer Foundation. A wonderful foundation started by NHL hockey star Darren McCarty for his father Craig who battled the same disease. They raise money for research for this type of cancer. I hope that the website can be of some help to you. God Bless your whole family.

I loved seeing your bald head! What a brave girl you are. Most women, including me, are so fixated on hair. I also loved seeing the picture of Maria after all these years. That smile doesn't change, does it? Tomorrow is the 10th and I understand that brings another round of chemo. We will be thinking of you and trying to send some good vibrations. All my good wishes go to Keith, too. Love, Mary

We check your web page often to see how you're doing.
It is clear that you are fighting this thing--always
figured that you would!!!
I certainly miss my
favorite Democrat--and Keith!!
Warren has finally talked me into selling these two
houses so we're doing the real estate thing and are
busy cleaning out closets, basements, etc. I know
you can identify!! 15 years of stuff and you know
how much I like to buy STUFF!!
Anyway, we want to come see you when you feel like it.
We'll be here all summer for "almost certain."
Say hi to my favorite children!

Has to be nice to be in your new home. It sounds perfect for you all.
Do you have lots of lilas on your tables?!!
This has been such a late Spring. Kristy said it snowed in the Santa Fe mountians yesterday.
Stev and Nico are done with school this week, but basketball goes on. Nick will go to San Antonio in July for a tourament. Stev's recuperating from a broken hand that happened during a game,so he's had to slow up alot.

Hi guys! Yes, it was great seeing you all last week. We got there just early enough to avoid helping with the move and not feeling guilty about it. Angie you are such a trooper. Susan and I talked often on the way home about your " true grit" and how you keep your sense of humor thru all of this. And your sense of resolve as well. While we were waiting for you in the hospital, you were having that pesky arm thing looked at, Keith so often said how terrific Dee had been and is being thru all of this. David came in for lots of good thoughts as well. Keith's love for you, Angie, and his concern for you touched us deeply. You are so lucky to have these rock solid supports to lean on. I know it is so stressful for all of you. Glad you liked the hat, Angie, I want to see you wearing it when you return to SMA. By the way Niki, you could upload lots of photos to Yahoo photos and then list them as another link on the bottom of the page. In that way everyone could go see as many as you want. Email me if I can help. Take care, mis amigos. We are so glad we were able to spend some time with all of you. Especially that late night meal at the closed restaurant!

Niki - Glad to hear your Mom, Angie, is doing well in fighting multiple myeloma. Dana Doctor, my nephew's wife, asked if I would get in touch with you. I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in July 2000, had five rounds of chemo and then an autologous stem cell transplant in December 2000. I am doing well and still in remission. I would be happy to share my experience with the treatments and the recovery process and be a resource for you and your Mom if you would like to correspond. Each case is different, but if I can be of any help at all, just ask anything. My wife and I live in University Place, WA and I have received, and continue to receive, all of my treatment through the VA hospital in Seattle. I wish you and your Mom the very best and hope to hear from you soon.

Best wishes,

Good evening.
I had a minute the other night to check the website and loved your entry about the lilacs! I always think of my growing up days when I see/smell lilacs. I knew we always had them, but I had NO idea they were STOLEN!! hee hee......what a rebel you were, eh? Our small lilac bush is trying to pop out some blossoms......any day now. The crabapples already blossomed beautifully.......the wild roses should be coming soon too. I planted some marigolds out front just to get some color going out there for now, til I get my impatients in......the weather has been so up and down.....warm and dry, cold and wet, that I want to be sure they won't get blasted with a freeze. Plus, we are going to plant 4 more yews out front......along the driveway, to hopefully act as a wind/snow block next winter....maybe keep the blowing snow from causing the 3+ft drifts in the driveway......

Also, I saw that movie title in the movie section of the paper and wondered about it.....thought it would be fun to see too......let me know what you think.

Glad you got to the Greek services......how was it? I saw it was being broadcast from Athens too on TV. Thought of you when I saw that.

It was good to talk to you today. Sorry you had a bad night last night, but hope that the rest of your day today was better. It was cold and rainy here and we didn't do much, but Jeff got take out ("boots"!!) so I didn't have to do any cooking tonight! That was a nice treat! Hope you both have a good day tomorrow.......good luck on the MRI tomorrow night. Let me/us know what you find out along with the latest labs.....keeping my fingers crossed for good news.
Hugs to all,

I love you both.

Angie--Still no leaves on the trees here in Brookings, so I'm enjoying reading about the foliage, even the stolen lilacs from the past. You're right about the crab apple jelly. What were we thinking when we gathered 4000 little apples and boiled and squeezed and strained and dripped juice, ending up with a few pints of jelly? We were thinking we were being proper young sixties mothers, I guess. (It was kind of satisfying to look at all those crystal clear glasses of jelly, wasn't it? I hope it was.) I'll be thinking about you on Monday. And every other day as well. Love, Mary C.

Angie,

It was great to read your latest addition to the website. Niki is right. Your attitude is wonderful. She gave you a tremendous compliment in thanking your for all you have given her that she hadn't realized. We all like to think we are doing the right thing while we're raising our kids. You must have!

I spent the afternoon with Connie who is staying in Brookings with her mother. Mrs. Iverson is recuperating but is unable to stay alone. I don't know how Connie is ever going to be able to leave. Connie doesn't have access to a computer so sends her love, along with mine.

I, as usual, am sitting here with no problems and feeling guilty about it. Love, Mary C.

Wonderful update!! Glad you have some relief from pain from morphine and steroids. Also good to hear your labs are so good.....except for HCT, but it could be worse, so I'd say that's ok if you have to have something not perfect.

I am glad you guys are both enjoying the gift certificates. I love the lyrics to that song....I'll have to look for her on the net and have a listen. Music is my healer, helper, joy whenever I need something......I hope it does the same for you.

As you can see, I have my pc back. Virus free and back in touch with the rest of the world! Tried to return your call this wkd, but you never answered, and you don't have your voice mail set up on the cell.....glad Dad got back ok from S.A. with David and that you have your car back too. Freedom with wheels will feel so good I'm sure!

You have the greatest attitude Mom!! I know now where mine came from.....as well as my strength. I see that you have given me so much more in my life than I ever stopped to realize. Thank you. You inspire me and I know you inspire everyone whose life you touch. It's evident by all those you are surrounded by in your life....up close, and afar.
I love you. (that goes for you too Dad!)

Hi guys,
Haven't talked in a few days, so I thought I'd check in. No news on the website though. Hope things are going ok and that your pain is subsiding, Mom.

Quick update on Erics baseball.....Sat game was rained out. Last night they played and Eric was up to bat first.......he hit a home run!! Unfortunately it was his teams ONLY run, but they were all pretty excited.....all except HIM of course.....as usual, he acted pretty unassuming about it....like it was "just part of his job" or something!! He also pitched two of the innings and had 4 strike outs (mostly called strikes!). His pitching has gotten even more accurate and faster! He had several good defensive plays too, but, unfortunately, his teammates did not follow them up with catches/outs! Oh well. He knows that it doesn't matter so much if they win, as long as HE is giving it HIS best effort......the whole team effort will come more as they all get older.....some of these kids are out there playing in the dirt! It's still fun to watch though.

If I don't talk to you before tomorrow, we are having the computer picked up Thurs am and should have it back Sat or Sun, so you can't reach us online til then.

Have a good rest of the week.

Love you,

Niki <ndaubach@cox.net>

I'm so sorry to hear that your pain is back again. I hope it's just related to the fact that you just came off of the steroids. Hang in there.

Dad,

Glad you're doing ok. Thanks for taking such good care of Mom. She's got the best caregiver!!

Hi to everyone there. Hope the packing and moving goes well.....time to pull out the scrabble game now for you two though I guess!

Hi Ange!....Edisto is not the same without the two of you!!!...A nice overcast day and I have been on the beach and found the mouthplate of the parrot fish so can relax for the remainder of the time here. The neighbors are having a wedding party and 5 buzzards have joined them on the lawn...is that some kind of omen? Nice full moon and high tides...am so glad that you are feeling less pain and it will continue that way I am sure...we look forward to your coming here in the near future....More later....Love and miss you...Miss J.

Hi Ang:

Here's a voice (words) from the past for you. Mary Cecil told me you were in a struggle with the myeloma when we corresponded about the reunion. I wanted to send along my thoughts and best wishes. We've been friends since kindergarten. Wow, has that been a few years! I'm wondering how many at the reunion will have that length of time. I was off to New Mexico for a big chunk in between but starting and finishing counts. I still have memories of our first New Year's back in Brookings when we had New Year's Day dinner at your folks with the traditional cake with the silver dollar baked in. I thought it was so nice of them to invite us.

I've been retired from HP for a couple of years now and mostly traveling, babysitting grandkids and running in the sunshine. It's a good life. About a year ago I started writing a thrice-weekly column for the Loveland Reporter-Herald. I reminisce, throw in a few facts and an occasional side comment. I'll send you a few to your E-mail address.

Well, I've rattled on enough. Hi to Keith, too.

Best regards,

jim

We're overdue on getting an update!! Let us all hear how well this last round went and how the pain has subsided so much more and how things are going on the real estate transaction, etc.!!

Hope you had luck in finding the sunless tanning lotion!! Now your head can match your face! :)
Talk to you soon.

P.S. Erics team lost their third game.....a close one though. 1-0 and he had the best hit.......a triple that should have been an inside the park home run! One of the coaches was missing off first base so was not there to tell him to keep on running after his great hit......too much hesitation before he got the message to keep going, so he only got to 3rd! Oh well! It might have been more fun to watch but it was miserably cold and rainy and windy!! Next game tomorrow night.

Love,
Niki <ndaubach@cox.net>

Hi K&A-Sure was great to hear your voice tonight Angie. Glad to hear you are all tucked in at PVHS for round 2, and that Keith has some wheels so that he can keep a good eye on you. Just wanted you to know that you're always in our hearts, whatever you need, we'd be glad to help. And now a new house to concentrate on!! Good for all of you, what an exciting adventure! I'll stop by to see you this week. Lots of love, Lars and Jimmy

Angie and Keith,
The San Miguel packers would love to be there to see your expressions when you unpack the boxes the Knapps are delivering. I can guarantee you that you'll look at each other and ask why in the world we included what we did. Trust us, we had no logical reasons! Mainly we thought you would like to see those gorgeous Mexican items in Colorado. And they'll be perfect in your new digs. Suerte with round # 2.

Game 1 is over.....Erics team won, 3-0! He pitched most of it and the people in the crowd were all saying, "Man, THIS kid can pitch.....who IS he?" The weather was a bit windy at first, but the sun came out and finished out the game.

Anyway, I thought you'd be anxious to hear the results. Hope your day was nice there too.
Talk soon.
Love,

Good Saturday morning! Hope you guys are both doing ok. It was good talking to you the other day. I'm sorry you're still having some pain Mom. I hope that the meds or the treatment will kick in enough to make a difference soon. At least you have the perfect caregiver in Dad.....he's so dedicated to you. You are blessed with him.

Just wanted to let you know I finally got the new pic of Spot downloaded to your page........good for a few laughs for everyone.......thanks to Miss Jenny!

Well, baseball season starts today for Eric, so we'll be hopping to keep up with games and practice for the next two months!

Hope you all have a nice weekend at "home" before you head back to "inpatient" status. Hope this round goes as well as the first. Let me know if you need anything.

Love you both,

Just rolled into Corvallis convinced that the next time we see the great Chihuahuan desert, it will be by air. It's great to know things are going as well as can be expected and that your good humor is intact. I don't think I told you that I'm reading Fierce Invalids -- I'm just a little past the triangle head (but of course I read ahead so I know about the wheelchair)!

Miz Angie, I am tickled pink yr home! Miz Jennie called yesterday and I tole her I know yer in remission! I KNOW IT! Lissen babe, when I was on those steroids, after my Mr. Potato Head size brain tumor was removed, well actually before and after, for three months, to keep the swelling down, we all know about my swelled head, anyway, wow, was I wired, I was up at 3 a.m. scouring the corners of the ceiling, no sh@%! Mr. Morpheus sounds much, much nicer. Hey kiddo, I think that redheaded woodpecker up there in Connor wrote that book for you and me and other fierce invalids from SMAGTO. Anyway honeybuns, you keep those beautiful knockers up, and be a bad girl as often as possible. I love and miss you.

San Miguel de Allende, Gto. Mexico - Saturday, April 06, 2002 at 11:17 AM (CST)

Hi Angie, keep up the great attitude and mindset. I wonder as a result of having cancer, you look at life differently, approach each day differently, and the people in your life seem a little more significant. I imagine your pain is deeper, yet your joy is greater. Your emotional and physical swings are more extreme, yet in some ways I see that as truely experiencing the fullness of life that many of us who walk in the grey twighlight,as Winston Churchill once said, never experience. As you are more aware of a finish line than the rest of us, although we all have one, I imagine you have more purpose in each step, of each hour, of each day. Less things and people are taken for granted and more people and events are precious. It seems to me, very few people can live that way without having to face a great challenge of some sort. Each day you inspire me and many others I am sure to live life in this full manner. Maintain your hope. We love you and are praying for you. I'd like to leave you with this scripture from Romans 5:2-4 "We rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and characer, hope. And hope does not disappoint us because God has poured out His love into our hearts." Again we love you Angie and support you in our prayers. Mark, Kathy, and Molly Miller.

We plan to be in Colorado in May and or June so we will see you then. That will give David a chance win some money from me at golf. Ed Markeset's daughter Monica gets married this Saturday. Susan had a shower for 30 last night. Me? I went to the movies. No way I'm getting in the same room with 30 nubile thirty-somethings. Well, come to think of it...

What a great idea to do a website...let me just start by telling you both (Papo and Angie) how much I wish I was there with you to share my love and support and how much I love you both and think of you all the time. I spoke with Dad yesterday and he filled me in on your situation - well as much as possible in 20 minutes while we were both at work! We talked about the idea of me coming up for a visit....I just really want to see you both and ALL actually. Gotta run - get back to work....will write more again soon....love jenny

hi angie, about 11 months ago i began what you just started having my 1st round of vad in april. watch out for the dex as it could give you insomnia and cause mood swings. my wife told me i was "grouchy" and believe it or not, i learned to control the mood swings pretty well. about 2 weeks after the 1st round, my hair began to come out in handfulls and i had to get it cut off or clog up every drain in the house. other than that and the usual lowered blood counts i came thru it very well. went on to have an sct as you are planning and am now in remission. i will be glad, as i'm sure will others, to tell you about my sct experience when you get closer. i thought it was easy but then i breezed thru it well. take care and think positively. i used to envision little pac man type critters running thru my veins killing cancer cells. many of us use imaging to direct our bodies to help heal itself. try it, it can't hurt. larry

Hi Angie,
My how time flies when I am painting... I have started on the 3,1/2'x4' rooster painting for Kent in L.A. and am very pleased with the current state of same and it seems to be coming together very quickly. I will send you photos of it when I finish. Could it be that I am finally attaining a degree of proficiency here? Next up is a flower and sky painting for neighbor Linda, small but a good size.
We plan to head for Texas at the beginning of May for three or four weeks. We will be staying at the Swann lake house outside of Tyler. I am looking forward to the change and I want to paint some water lillies there and some water birds. The great blue herons there are lovely. Andy will be occupied with tennis and fishing, we will have a chance to see all the family. There is a clay court national tennis tournament in Houston the first week in May, so we may try to see some of that while visiting my mom there.
Gail is supposed to come and view the mah jonng game at the library restaurant this week. When you get back we will have enough for a foursome!
I do hope that things are falling into a semblance of order for you and that you and Keith are taking a rest now. We are thinking of you both, miss you!! We watered the grass yesterday at the casita, it is looking good.
Take care, Rosemary

Hi Angie!!!! I signed the guest book yesterday but then somehow erased it all....so here we go again. Bob and I are off to Patzcuaro tomorrow..and get this....staying at the Buddhist center....that is the place Rosemary and I saw last summer that was so amazing....giant ancient garden and what looked to be lots of folk art left over from the 40s....is this possible or just my wishful thinking? Will find out tomorrow. Staying in the BIG house. And going to see Dale and Bob , my old friends from way back...who are living there. I made reservations to go to Spartanburg today...going in mid April. Will see Jenny finally after a year ... my goodness. I think I told you that David will be moving to Baltimore...where he is working is a Jesuite college....it is still hot...but we are supposed to have rain this weekend I hear...that would be novel...but a blessing for the crucifixion at Atotonilco where it is always sooooooo hot. Be sure to open your unisono mail as I sent a new photo of Spot..with Adobe I will make her smile in the next one....I hope you are not too uncomfortable and are getting to see some good movies on the video...and did you see the Academy Awards? We taped them so as not to have to stay up after our 9:00 bedtime....Gwenith Paltrow's mother should have advised her on that dress....heavens. But at least we had seen A Beautiful Mind. Do have Keith send your new hotmail address or yahoo or what ever it was so I can get bad and gossipy on line. I must remember that others are reading this. I forgot and had to erase some of this note..thinking of you....Love to all, Miss J

Hang in there Angie. Remember, be nice to the nurses and they'll be nice to you. I was diagnosed on Sept 18 of last year and was told that I should have been in a coma when I walked into the hospital. I've been on Dex and Thalidomide since then and am having what the oncologist calls a "world class" response to the treatment. All blood levels are in the normal range. The local onc. told me just last week that when he first saw me he thought I had about three months to live. Fooled em. :--) There are treatments out there that could turn this around just as dramatically for you. Don't stop looking.

I hope your husbands heart disease is behaving. I had a bybass (CABG x1) in June of 1993 and keep chugging along with no new problems.

Good Luck and God Bless

Happy Birthday Papo!!! We are so glad that we can be close to you both during this time, I cherish the one on one time I have had with you as I accept my new role as "the great grands taxi service". It has brought me so much joy and reinvestigation of who you two are and what it is you represent to me. I have observed your love, light and devotion for one another and the process you must face together. It simply astounds and inspires me. I love you both so dearly. Yesterday I found myself smiling with a walk down memory lane...I was recalling the day at the pond with green seaweed draped all over my head and laughing hysterically, as per usual when in your company. I am looking forward to many more heartfelt moments and lots more playdates. Cheers to Health! Our candles are lit for you both and our love is endless. xoxo, Mery, Madeline and Seth

Hi, Angie. I had a delightful dinner with Tom and Diane Hart in Guatemala, but I was really sad to hear you are not well. I'll be thinking of you!
A funny thing about the message on your website: Your daughter wrote that you had been visited by ___ and Linda Danforth (Dad's former partner). My first thought was, "Now that's generous of Angie that she and her husband are friends of Linda, her husband's former partner." Then it dawned on me that your daughter was talking about a former BUSINESS partner!

Hi Miss Ange..........went out and spent the afternoon with Espot. She is doing well and requested that I send her photo to Niki and De which I have dutifully done. Keith called while I was in the shower today but Bob had gone out to pick up the car so all is going well on that angle. Today is Benito Juarez day so things may be a bit slow...and next week is Semana Santa...so nothing happens then...but we will do our best. Happy birthday to Keith and though the circumstances are icky at the moment I know there are better times around the corner...that may very well involve wine and scrabble....Love, Miss J.

Hi K&A,
It is so good to know we can now keep in touch and keep up with your progress - many thanks to you, Niki, for making this possible! We have been thinking about you lots and was really pleased to find the emails when I checked this a.m. before leaving for Albuquerque to meet my daughter, Marcy. She's flying in for a weekend in northern New Mexico. We'll be in Taos two nights exploring and then the last two nights staying with a Denver friend who now lives in Cochiti Lake, close to Santa Fe. Mike says Hi too and we both send our best - more when I return on Tuesday. We send our love and happiest thoughts to you both...

Greetings K&A from glorious San Antonio,

The dreams of renovation are on hold here til you can pass through again with your sage wisdom on the adjoining loft. I'm assuming the close on your chapter at the Salida will come to pass today and another chapter will reveal itself to you and all your spirited family and friends. We are allways together and we like it that way....see you soon, big hugs: Gus, Inge, Hagan, Tim, Lili and Zelda

Dear Keith and Angie,
Well bummer, I was expecting my next call to you to be to San Miguel! You know both of you are in my thoughts and I appreciate so much that Nikki has given us a way to contact you and say hello. I always seemed to be playing catch up since you have been booming around so much. Sweet Angie you will always be my Shirley Valentine and your joyful spirit just brings a smile when ever I think of you. I treasure the time you and Keith spent with us and my vacations down in Mexico. Love you both so much and look forward to when you are perky enough for Mariachi bands and sending up hot air candles again. Wasn't that the best party ever! A gently hug for you Angie from both Jim and I and a birthday hug for Keith. Love Deb

Hi Angie & Keith,
I met you in Mexico when I visited Jennifer with Prudy several years ago. My prayers and thoughts are with you both each day. I too am a cancer survivor...have been on chemo 3yrs and 4 mo. I am currently in remission. Keep the faith as you can make this. Please feel free to write to me as sometimes it is easier to talk with someone who has experienced the cancer journey. You can make it.

Hi Angie and Keith,
Greetings from the Scheins in Southern Oregon. Patty and I have thought of you often and conjure up that special energy from our gatherings in San Miguel. We miss you and want to send out love to you both.
All is well with our family. Kids thriving in school and sports, Patty just finishing her Masters and will then start working again as a Nurse Practitioner, and I have sort of found my new path as a University Professor, Management Consultant, and Grad Student in Organizational Behavior. Stay in touch and get better!

Dear Angie,

Having this web site is so nice for friends and family. Niki is the perfect daughter. You know we are concerned about you and Keith. This will keep us informed on your progress.
As far as I can tell you guys have the "crooked pole". So I want you to get off this merry-go-round, be well and come stay with us again!
We'll be heading North in a couple of weeks. If we can do ANYTHING for you, please let us know. We're really not that far apart.

Love and prayers,

Hi Angie- I feel so out of touch...really sorry to hear that you are in the midst of this illness and treatment, but know you will have great reserves to call upon. I've been trying to get down there, and may finally in April. Had hoped to get a few Scrabble games in, maybe you will be back there by then? Have such great memories of our sojourn in South Carolina, could that have been almost a year ago?? One of these days I'll be able to beat you and Jenny again. I'm glad to hear your grandson is your inspiration...I remember his trials and he looks so cute and big now. Besos y abrazos de La Florida, Sara

Angie,
I am still amazed and dismayed that this is happening to you, but know that if anyone can handle it, it's you! I loved looking at the picture of the beautiful Greek lady herself. It must be true that the eyes are the windows to the soul, and those eyes haven't changed since fourth grade! It's a great picture and the one I am going to keep in my head as I think about you and hope for the very best results. I'm happy that you have such a wonderful family and lots of friends for support. It was really great of Niki to set up this website. It was fun to see the picture of Brian--your inspiration. Chuck and I send our love to you and Keith.

Hi Miss Ange.....isn't this sweet of Niki ?...she is going to be such a help to you . Today I spoke to Spot who asked about you....was going to take her photo and will tomorrow...had to show the FAM and it got terribly HOT out there. Your housecleaning went well....I was torn about the Taco Bell Chihuahua...knew that Emma would love it...but threw it in your box for a future stint on the Antiques Road Show...it will put your great great grandchildren through college. Thinking of you and keeping the candles of my mind blazing.
.Love, Miss J

Hi Angie and Keith
We both enjoyed lunch with you two just a few short
weeks ago--We never would have believed either of you
were sick--you both looked terrific and we had such
a good time!! San Miguel
just isn't the same without you two.
Also, just to
let you know that we packed up some of your "favorite"
things for Tom Knapp to bring back to Colorado in
a few weeks---just let us know if there is anything
truly special we might have missed--Jennifer has the
list. We will be back in Colorado late April---we
hope to see you then and have another comida--
hang in there---we REALLY miss you down here!!
Hi to David and De

Hello Again Dearest Angie,
We so enjoyed sharing time with you and Keith, at Jackie and Les' place near Miami. We are saddened to hear of your health challenge, and we are most heartened to hear that you are now in the process of recovery. Take comfort in the knowledge that you have much love and support along the way. Thank you Niki, for using this technology to let us lend our voices to this chorus of love for Angie.

Hi Angie,
This was so thoughtful of Nikki to set up a website for you. Even though I work on a computer every day, technology in my personal life still amazes me. We were so sorry to hear that you have to start chemo and spending time in a hospital. I hope everything goes as smoothly as is possible. I have been watching and praying for my folks going through so much over the past 3 years--breast cancer, triple bypass, angioplasty, 3 hip, and 2 knee operations. I will add you to those prayers. You are strong and come from strong stock; I am so glad to hear that your spirits are up and ready for a fight. We love you, Diane and Dick

Hi My Special Friends,

Although I'm positive the food in that hospital is wonderful, I wish I were there to prepare your meals and serve them on beautiful Mexican dishes and candles of course. Even though I'm not physically there, my heart is with you and you will always be in my prayers.

My door is always open and the hammock is hanging.

We love you.

Hi Angie my love, I really miss you & Doc so much. Miz Jennie passed the website address along to me. It's great to hear how you are doing and to see your beautiful face. I am saying prayers and lighting candles. You are a miracle to me! Wanna good giggle, girlfren? Go to eBay and then to their list of stores and type in beautiful things for big babes, my new enterprise. In the meantime, muchosmoochos to you, my angel. When will you be out this way? Jude

Hi Mom and Dad!
I wanted to be the first to sign your guestbook. Mom, I hope your first night inpatient went well. I hope you got some sleep and some relief from your pain. I know I will be talking to you frequently, but if there is anything you need from me, just call.

I am so sorry this awful thing has come your way, but I am glad that you have each other to hold onto and help each other get through this. I am also grateful to all the family and friends there who are helping out as well. I hate being so far away, but it helps to know that you are not alone.

I love you both so much. Talk to you tomorrow.
Lots of love and hugs,
Niki Daubach <ndaubach@cox.net>
