His radiation treatment shrank his spleen to the point that he feels better and is up and walking some around the farm--not straying too far. I didn't think he would last until Christmas, but he made it through the holidays and his doctor thinks he is just short of a miracle. He is not cured by any means, but he is doing better. I expect that we'll have him around another year at least. In the meantime, I have been cataloging the Wallace information I have, which has truly been overwhelming. I have all of your emails and will try to get to them in the next few weeks. Marjorie, I owe you a nice long letter. I enjoyed your note at Christmas and hope to respond to you soon. I am going on a much needed retreat this weekend and will send you a letter next week. Thank you all for your kind emails inquiring about my father.
