Phil's Vacation: Day +4

More pickles and more great company. I also watched Invictus which I found inspirational, but probably more made for viewing in the theaters. The quote that stuck out the most from Mandela during the movie was, "Forgiveness liberates the soul..." In America it seems like we are quick to blame, slow to apologize and very few times do we reach forgiveness. So let's make sure we teach our children how to dominate forgiveness.

Awesome post, brother. I just had my first bone marrow sample since having the stem cell transplant on April 30 at Karmanos in Detroit. Love your attitude and staying connected is such a big part of staying positive. Do those laps even if you have to break them down into smaller segments and do them like four times instead of one big one.
My heart goes out to you and I will lift you up in prayer as you head for "bottoming out". Let those wonderful nurses and your friends and family carry you during the really tough days. Thank you for this posting.
