Re: RAZD update YEA!
Latest I have is kinda good news! RAZD has bought a junky Austin Mini Cooper and will be getting it on the road soon. He has plans to try to convert it to a propane engine, just for kicks. What an idea. He also bought a TANDEM bicycle so he & the mrs. can tool around his hometown. Coolest.
Nobody gets my brother down. Nobody. Even if they throw the whole kitchen sink at him, he just shrugs it off. Kitchen window?, well, let's just say we had a good time with The Bigger Hammer.
The reality is that he still has more chemo to do - and he will. And he will emerge from that, too. Nobody gets my brother down.

RAZD
I have some bad news...my brother, RAZD, was taken to the hospital with bleeding in his brain. They were planning on operating but have now decided it's too complicated. They now plan on putting him in a hospice, presumably near Warren, RI.
I will keep you all advised as I learn more.

Re: RAZD
He did not make it. Last night.
We will make some kind of plans later, but he will be or has been cremated.
Pattie got to be with him all day yesterday in the hospital, but he was unresponsive and didn't squeeze back her hand.
