It pains me to admit it, but apparently, I have passed away. Today, I am happy and doing my favorite things: dancing in the rain and riding my Harley. Cancer may have beat me in life, but it didn't break my spirit.
To my boys, Robbie and Michael, love and laugh, hard and often. Don't waste time stressing about the small stuff. Be responsible, take the high road, and never be afraid to take a chance or ask for help. Marriage to your father was a three ring circus (engagement ring, wedding ring and suffering), but despite our differences, your dad is a good man and he is there for you both.

A big thanks to all of my friends, including Chrissy, Heidi, Diane, Phyllis and Dave, for your visits and support. Thanks so much. It meant a lot to me, even if I didn't always show it.
To Dad, No more pain, no bipolar disorder, no cancer. Love you, Dad. Enjoy the time you have left. Please don't be sad. I'm at peace now.
