I've been on one for two weeks now. Monday the 11th was the last week of my final semester in school and bad news started rolling in on Tuesday. A good friend of mine suffered a massive heart attack at the Capitol in Austin. No one knows how long he was in the elevator, but the team of paramedics, including at least one his fellow colleagues, worked their magic. He's been in ICU since, but is getting better. I had a chance to see him yesterday and it looks as if he'll make a full recovery.

Today my nephew (3) drowned. His dad pulled his lifeless body from the bottom of the pool. He was revived poolside but has complications breathing.

To say I'm extremely close to this boy would be an understatement. He always wants to play in uncle John John's (me) black car (the 944). All I can do is comfort my brother by telling him that the Dr.'s are very good, they know how to handle this type of situation and he's going to be ok. Maybe if I was better equipped with words of encouragement for my brother and his wife, I could handle this one better myself.

Pull through little buddy! We have so much more fun to have!
