The Silver Lining

It's been a while, and a lot has happened in between. As always. If there are any regular readers out there, you know Mrs. Original's best friend has leukemia. AML. It's hardcore. She's in Lourdes right now, essentially hoping for a miracle. A lot of people don't know much about leukemia. It takes some pretty serious stuff to get people to pay attention and learn. Which is why Jason Blake's announcement is such a big deal. What does it mean for his career? We'll have to wait and see. But to have an athlete in a huge media market even attempt to continue playing through this condition will do major things for leukemia awareness in North America. Keep Jason in your prayers.

Thoughts another time about Brian Griese, the Presidential election, and other fun things.
