Dear Friends and Family,

This past Monday we had to send our dear kitty Jorge to kitty heaven. He had been sick for a few weeks and though we tried, we could not make him better. We both boo-hooed for a couple of hours, but knew it was the right thing to do. We will miss him terribly.

We did an interview with a local radio station last Saturday which was the first time we had talked about our experience with plague in a while. It is still difficult and painful to relive those very dark days, but we are happy to help educate people as much as possible. It will be five years ago on June 19th that John was finally released from the hospital!

Otherwise all is well enough. We are contemplating a possible move due to work. We will tell you more later.

Much love,

John and Lucinda
