Hey! It's nice to hear from you! How are you doing? Any better at all? I see you responding here, so that's something!

Thank you about my son; third time's a charm I hope :)

I think about you daily, really I do, and hope you're doing well. It's so strange developing relationships here, but never being able to meet in person. Who knows ... keep keeping your head above water my friend, and maybe one day I'll make it their for a holiday ;)
