Hello all. Thanks for reading Kurt's blog. Please keep him in the loop of you, your life, crazy stories about work/neighborhood--that will be a big help to brighten his day to the outside world. On the home front, Madeline (freshman) and David (junior) are hanging in there. They have a super group of friends, as they are friends with each other, so they have support. I am going to take them to the Wellness House which helps cancer patients families. As for all of you, thank you for supporting me. I love you friends. You make me laugh and help me cry--I am truly blessed. I know I can call any of you at any time. My car is on autopilot with T.I., Rihanna, Tragically Hip, Andrew Bird, Kanye West etc... on the ipod/radio, my veins are filled with coffee, Diet Mountain Dew and chocolate chip cookies (thanks Deb and Diane!!!). I'm trying to keep my head above water--taking a few minutes for walks/Pilates, laughing with my friends and sleep. Last night I went with my friend, Mari to see the author, David Sedaris at the Auditorium Theatre. He is my favorite author, who is hilarious. I laughed so hard my face hurt. Thank you, Kurt for the tickets.
Today is Tuesday, I think. Kurt started chemo late, last night. His mom was here in the a.m. I'm here this afternoon. He has been napping alot--baseball isn't even on the TV! (Is it still baseball season?). His brother, Greg is coming in town tonight; his sister is arriving on Friday. Come by and say hi--visitors are welcome, unless you have any suspicion of a cold or germs. He isn't allowed raw vegetables or fruit--if you all know Kurt, that's right up his alley. He usually says, "Yukopitewi." He can't have flowers or plants in the room.
That's it for now. XXOO Merci beau coup mi amigos,
jani

Kurt,
Heard about this, today, from Billy Z. Shocked. You can fight it, you can beat it. Like a 5-wood across a 200+ yard water hazard at a Plaza Open! - Peter Hirsch.
Kurt,
When you reach your destination at the end of your road to recovery, there is a newer version of your 'Vette you need to test drive.
See www.nytimes.com/2008/10/12/automobiles/autoreviews/12AUTO.html?ei=5070. Lemme know when you're ready and I'll ride shotgun!

kurt,
great time to be away, there is absolutely nothing going on the financial markets! just one humdrum day after another! your mom has done a great job keeping me up to date on your condition. we are all praying for you and know that you will be better than ever. don't let greg bring you down with his problems ie: bad knee= no hockey, or his bad golf game. for a laugh, ask him about the last time he played ding dong ditch! take care and keep us posted

howdy kurt! you look great in the picture (why do I think it was Ray that said you'd still be a fat ass after 20lbs!). the brewers have u in our thoughts and prayers...and we know you'll whip this thing! I've been thinking about you this week as I'm traveling in NASCAR country (NC). see you soon.

Kurt, We know you are in great hands. Take it one day at a time. We will be down on Saturday for the 6th Comer Kids Classic. We'll stop by if we are healthy. Your attitude on the blog sounds great! Keep it up. You can fight this battle. We're praying for you.
Jean
