We got a call that the wife's favorite niece is in the hospital in Reno with Ovarian Cancer. She has been operated on, but does not look good. Wife is in tears. We head for Reno tomorrow. :(

Maybe next year. Besides being sick, we have had a great time.

Thanks guys...

As we get older, more of the family is having medical problems.
Before we left we had discussed what if her 87 year old mother was to get ill, but never thought about our niece (32 years old). We lost two of our close friends to cancer last year. Cancer is a horrible disease.

I'm sorry to hear of Mrs Maxtor's niece's problems and you folks needing to cut short your trip. We all know how long you've been planning for your cross-country adventure and how much you had been looking forward to it.

I'll say a prayer for recovery to health for Mrs Maxtor's niece. If that isn't likely, may her remaining time be as comfortable as possible and may she be surrounded by many friends & family.

If you are able to resume your trip later on, just remember I'll still have that "Big Gulp" waiting for you. :sweet
