Thankful

We'd like to wish all of our loved ones a very Happy Thanksgiving.  We are most thankful for our wonderful family and friends.  We heard the The Heritage Center was overrun with supporters at the Sam Tripson Benefit.  Thank you so much to everyone who helped make the event such an amazing success.  We are deeply moved by such generosity and kindness, especially now with many families operating on a tight holiday budget.  Please know that we are appreciative of every dollar that was donated and plan to use these funds with the utmost thought and care.

Sam was finally admitted into the hospital yesterday.  He was feeling so awful that we tried to get him in sooner, but there were no available beds.  This past week has been nuts so please don't be offended or alarmed if you haven't heard from us.  In a strange sequence of events we ended up sleeping in 6 different places in 7 days.  Many of you have asked for our mailing address up here, and hopefully I'll have a response for you by Saturday.  So far, Sam is doing well, and may be released as early as tomorrow evening.  We plan on staying in the city, as close to the hospital as possible, in case anything goes wrong during his recovery period in between treatments.

Jack is doing great.  He's, unfortunately, not allowed on the floor to visit Sam, but he's been enjoying the sights and sounds of the Upper East Side on his daily walks with grandma.  I'll try to post pictures soon.  We hope everyone is having a fantastic day.  Have some pie for us!
