One year ago today, a selfless young man donated a sizable amount of his bone marrow to keep my daughter alive. We still don’t know who he is, but God does. I ask you to say a prayer for him today.

If you’re the praying type, I’d ask you to send one up for my youngest today. After having headaches and tremors during the first semester, an MRI determined TJ has some excess spinal fluid in the brain. He’s having surgery this morning to remedy the problem. Thanks!

Accoring to the Indiana State Department of Health, on March 2, 2021, there were no deaths due to CoVID. That is the first day that has been reported since March 15, 2020. I'm not looking for debate. I just think that's great news!
