Well, we arrived safely last week after a week long journey. We are blessed to have made it in one piece as we observed several incidents including a vehicle that had hydroplaned off the road and rolled over. I actually stopped to help, relying on my former rescue squad experience as no rescue vehicles had arrived. In the process, I dropped my cell phone, then returned to find it still working even after an hour of sitting in the rain and costing us an hour and a half in drive time). We saw two more roll overs, which just proves that higher speeds are more likely to cause accidents.

Anyhow, I am adjusting to the heat and getting used to quasi-west coast living. The best news is that after a long string of doctors appointments, ER visits, and sleepless nights, we were able to get my wife into the Mayo Clinic to have her evaluated by both an internist and an endocrinologist. We are confident that we will get to the bottom of this and get back to enjoying life.

More to come…
