Mid-Term Report

Dear Support Group
This is week 7 but no treatment. Actually that is not entirely true. This week I traded traditional healing methods for the magical healing power of God’s given gift of nature; Sun on my skin, smell and taste of the ocean breeze, the sound of waves backed up by the birds chirping and the sight of an ever changing sky. I have inundated my senses with feelings of peace, contentment and love. If you are looking for a free universal health plan, this is it. It discriminates against no one and is available to all. We just have to remember it is there. Open up the window and take it all in. The effects were certainly apparent in my Golf game on Saturday. For the first time and after over 10 years of “trying” to play, I broke 60 on both nine holes shooting 56 and 57 consecutively.
Now..now if you are a good golfer don’t laugh at me … this is serious business, an all time best and a place I never thought I would be. All those who play know how challenging and sometimes frustrating the game can be , but I have discovered that golf can become a spiritual experience offering the perfect setting to practice the “ relinquish grievance and choose the miracle” motto and I see this accomplishment as a sure sign that miracles do happen.
It is not all play though. We still have to take care of some business, so Sharbel and I temporarily relocated our offices to half of the dining room table for him and a small desk in the bedroom for myself, both with strategic views, but being the CEO of my company I get more sun. And while he still puts in a full day of work covering 3 time zones, I work just a few hours in the morning delegating some tasks to Karim my trusty assistant in Cincinnati in an effort to jumpstart that ever eluding sabbatical I keep talking about. I want to take this opportunity to thank JnJ’s bosses and colleagues, for all the support they have given Sharbel facilitating and making it possible for him to work while keeping me company during this journey. His presence has made a world of difference and I truly and utterly will be forever grateful.
Also this will be the last email report I send. When I wrote the first report I did not anticipate it turning into a weekly log but as you all know it became a therapeutic outlet for me and despite all your inspiring responses part of me felt guilty for electronically intruding on you this frequently. I considered adding an unsubscribe button but I know you are all too polite and kind to use it. So I took the advice of the younger generation and established a blog where I am posting my progress reports. That way you can log on at your convenience and I won’t be cluttering your mailbox or smart phones. I will also feel better if I rant and may be able to post photos or useful links (no promises I am still figuring the blog thing out).
I thank you all again for all the love and continued support
much love
