What is on the Other Side?

For Amelia's Dad...and her family, we pray for his passing this day.

Bock,

Can we add my Dad – he passed this morning – At home in his bed, in his sleep with his dog by his side. Just how he wanted to go.

Thanks,

Amelia

A sick man turned to his doctor, as he was preparing to leave the examination room and said, "Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side."

Very quietly, the doctor said, "I don't know."

"You don't know? You, a Christian man, do not know what is on the other side?"

The doctor was holding the handle of the door; on the other side came a sound of scratching and whining, and as he opened the door, a dog sprang into the room and leaped on him with an eager show of gladness. Turning to the patient, the doctor said, "Did you notice my dog? He's never been in this room before. He didn't know what was inside. He knew nothing except that his master was here, and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear. I know little of what is on the other side of death, but I do know one thing...I know my Master is there and that is enough."

Good News about Pete...THANKS

Good afternoon to all the family, friends, and supporters. I just got back from seeing the Oncologist. This, after a week of tests, MRIs, PET Scans, and visits to the surgeon and dermatologist. He told me that everything looked good and that they could find no sign of the melanoma lurking anywhere. We also heard today, that Nancy's mom is doing quite well and they are cutiing back, significantly, on her chemo. It has been a long and difficult year in dealing with this. I am pleased with the outcome since I chose the "nuclear option", or most aggressive treatment available. My brain is still fuzzy over events while I was in treatment, and I missed some collasal snowstorms this past Winter. I shall be in follow up for quite some time. Now, my next challenge is to get all the paperwork and test results to the FAA so that I can try to get my Medical back and return to flying, which I have truly missed. Once again, I would like to thank all of you for your prayers and support throughout this ordeal. I hope that you all have a nice 4th of July weekend. I know that we shall be celebrating here. Pete
