I went to a 4:20 party yesterday. I really went to see Carolyn, my friend who is battling cancer. It was a joyful, sunny day, she was surrounded by friends and family and I was so glad to see her. She was one of the group who went with me to see Bruce Cockburn last fall. At that time she was feeling much better than she is now.

I won’t go into all the gory details, but she has been on one therapy or another for a very long time. Sometimes there is lots of hope, other times a feeling of despair.

She is such a strong – vibrant – beautiful woman. Please pray / send light / or thoughts of seeing her as her strong vibrant healthy beautiful self.

Here she is with her grandson, Jonah, her daughter Crystal, and that’s her husband Mark in the background:
