My grandmother passed away this morning. Please keep my family in your prayers- especially my father, who has lost his daughter and mother now within the last 10 weeks.
I'm still in Chicago right now but will be back in Pittsburgh this evening. I'll be taking a few days off to be with my family and will be returning phone calls and emails at the end of the week.

For example, someday you'll be a bestselling author on the power of the human will during tough times. (And you'll also be able to take your own book jacket photo.) Best wishes.

I appreciate your warm wishes for my family. xo, ~k
