Sunday, May 30, 2004 -- 02:57:46 (EDT) Name: Mary Craig -- Email: mfcraig@umich.edu Location: Salt Lake City, UT USA Since Liz asked about the kitties, I thought I'd describe how I just saw them. Markus and I watched a DVD (Mona Lisa Smile--it was OK). Sam and Simon-the-Cat sat between us and on Markus' lap (I was knitting). The cats began an extravagant licking festival. They often blend into each other so that it's hard to tell whose licking whom. I left them lying on the sofa, all snuggled together like one body. I think Sam was still licking Simon's brow. Anyway, those two were in the womb together, and they make a fine, comforting pair now. It is lovely to be able to pet soft, beautiful, grateful kitties! --Mary Saturday, May 29, 2004 -- 09:18:57 (EDT) Name: Liz, Mike, Emma, & Lucas -- Email: lizkndy@yahoo.com Location: Ann Arbor, MI We have a gorgeous, sunny day here after way too much rain lately, so we'll be outside planting, skateboarding, and seeing neighbors who've also been hiding out from the weather! We're sending our best wishes that the tests & results are the best they can be! xoxoxoxo Thursday, May 27, 2004 -- 12:09:38 (EDT) Name: annette Location: Oakland, CA Glad to hear that life is in somewhat of a normal mode. First grade really is a wonder isn't it. I can see why people like to teach it. So glad to hear all the strides Simon has made this year even with missing some school. Sometimes it seems as an observer the learning happens by osmosis. Rowan has really been picking up so much more on his reading. It takes so much to do it, it's amazing we are that capable. Makes one appeciate the power of the brain. It's nice to be able to picture you all in your great house there. We're off to Laguna for Memorial Day and will be meeting Yampa and Yamma there, so there is some major excitment in our household. Hugs and Kisses to you four. Sounds like David and Joycelyn may be coming there on their way west. We look forward to seeing your cousins in a few weeks. Love, annette, steve and rowan Monday, May 24, 2004 -- 14:07:38 (EDT) Name: rebecca Location: Oberlin, USA A belated Happy Birthday from all of us to you!! It sounds as if things are going well these days. I hope you enjoy your last couple of weeks of first grade. I bet Utah is particularly gorgeous at this time of year. It was very special for our entire family to see you and your sister and parents (and grandparents!) in Oberlin a couple of weeks ago. Schuyler was most impressed with your Yu-gi-oh skills! We're sending lots of love to you all, Rebecca and crew Saturday, May 22, 2004 -- 13:42:50 (EDT) Name: Quentin Smith -- Email: q.m.smith@att.net Location: Ann Arbor, MI Republic of Ann Arbor Love Quentin.

I've heard chocolate cake -- especially the kind from the Silver Palate people -- can be very beneficial, healthwise! ;-) Danny's birthday is tomorrow -- he's going to have chocolate cake, too, only his comes from a "secret" (Pennsylvania Dutch) family recipe. Chocolate is terrific in all kinds of recipes, isn't it!? Have a great day and a great year! Love, Kris, Rob, Emily, Danny, and Laura Wednesday, May 19, 2004 -- 14:24:39 (EDT) Name: Marta, Paul, Sam -- Email: manildi@millercanfield.com Location: Ann Arbor, We feel like total bums, though. We got *both* parts of the quiz wrong AND we missed Simon's birthday. We were thinking of you, though, as we do every day! Belated Happy Birthday Simon, and keep up the good work! Marta, Paul, Sam Tuesday, May 18, 2004 -- 10:18:15 (EDT) Name: Edie Robbins -- Email: edier@provide.net Location: Ann Arbor, MI USA I am so happy that Simon is feeling better. Also, a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Simon. I remember bringing you a meal when Simon was first born and bringing my baby, Anthony along. Now our boys are 7 and 8 years old. Hard to believe. Good to hear that Simon is back in school and off the pain pump. Simon, you are such a strong and brave little boy. If anyone can beat this cancer, YOU CAN! Wish we could see you again. Utah seems so very far away. I didn't know you were in town recently, but if you come again, let us know. My health thoughts and wishes go out to you and the whole family. Love, Edie Tuesday, May 18, 2004 -- 00:12:40 (EDT) Name: Sallly Location: Seattle, love to all, Sally Monday, May 17, 2004 -- 10:22:15 (EDT) Name: Katherine Lawrence -- Email: kathla@umich.edu Location: Ann Arbor, MI Q: What bow can't be untied? A: A rainbow. Q: Why did the boy throw his toast out of the window? A: To see the butter fly! I am sending hopeful wishes of good health to you and your family. Hugs, Katherine Monday, May 17, 2004 -- 09:51:31 (EDT) Name: John and Diane Logan -- Email: JCLinAA@aol.com Location: Canton, Michigan USA We miss seeing you here in Michigan and hope that you will be able to come up to Crystal Lake sometime in the near future to see all your cousins and friends. We know that you have been going through a lot of things lately, but want you to know that we think of you often and are both very happy that you are feeling much better today. I also want you to know just how lucky you are to have such wonderful parents that really care for you and know in their hearts that they 7 year old son is going to get through this situation and be able to run around the bases of life in good shape. We miss all of you here but want you to know that we look forward to seeing you again even though you are way out there in Utah. Love to you and happy birthday to you Simon.

We're thinking of you with love and sending all best wishes, and many, many great big hugs! Please pass on some of these hugs to your Mom and Dad and Miriam in fact, the more of them you pass on, the more you get! With love, Laz, Helen, and Daniel San, Brenda, and Emily Sunday, May 16, 2004 -- 21:52:13 (EDT) Name: Deborah Gurt -- Email: dgurt@hotmail.com Location: Norhtfield, MN USA I want to be the first to wish you a happy 7th birthday! I hope you have something fun planned for tomorrow. Lev had a soccer party today with a few of his new friends and he's bringing cupcakes to school tomorrow. May 17th is definitely the best day to have a birthday! We all send you our best wishes for a fun and happy day and we're glad to hear that you are feeling a bit better. Lots of love to you and your mom, dad, and Miriam. from Deborah, Marek, Lev and Jacob Saturday, May 15, 2004 -- 12:31:57 (EDT) Name: Kris Hopkins -- Email: khopkins@mail.colgate.edu Location: clinton, NY Glad to hear you're not needing the pain pump at the moment -- nice when you can be unhooked, I'll bet! Hope the next round of treatment has you feeling even better still. No clue who the person is in the baseball cap, but I'm guessing you're watching Yu-Gi and his friends on the tube -- I've seen that look on my own kids before, and it generally *hasn't* come with any discussions about the stock market.... ;-) Enjoy spring!

Love,Grandma J Saturday, May 15, 2004 -- 02:27:59 (EDT) Name: Erik Location: Davidsonville, MD Thanks for posting your picture with Mike. It looks to me Simon, like you need to clue him in that he's missing some very important part of the YU-GI-OH show. He needs to be quiet and stop disagreeing with you!

We love your postings, but we can always wait a little bit when you are too tired. That said, we are especially grateful to be able to read that Simon has improved from the worst of the pain. In Simon's name, and for him, you have gathered an awesome convergence of family love, medicine, friends, and these wacky but heartfelt thoughts, vibes, dances, jokes and incantations the rest of us do in a wonderful affirmation of life. His and ours. Thank you.

Rob and I are getting ready for a trip to England to meet the Queen (just kidding!) and hear some barbershop singing (that part's true!). I think before I go, though, I'm going to pull out one or two of our A.A. Milne books and brush up on some of his poems, which my mother always used to read aloud to my sisters and me with a slightly British accent (so that's how we've read them to our kids, too!). I especially like the ones about James James Morrison Morrison and the king who only wants a little bit of butter for his bread. Do you know those? They're either from "When We Were Very Young" or "Now We are Six" -- I can't remember which. But you might enjoy them, too, if you don't know them already.... In the meantime, you have all our best wishes.
