A number of years after John Lennon was killed outside of the famous Dakota Apartment building in New York, the remaining Beatles finally got some unfinished demos together to record a few songs for the "Anthology" project. Real Love and Free as a Bird were the two new songs that were commercially released and were minor successes. I have some freedom now myself, for example I can grow my whiskers and even have some hair sprouting out of the top of my head now. With freedom comes some other side effects though. I contacted a virus called BK and am on an experimental 5 week study to determine the efficacy of an as yet to be approved by the FDA drug. I am also still being treated for GVHD which has caused some general weakness and fatigue issues. I just have to slow down and walk more and less bike for a bit I hope. Hopefully I can start to taper many of the immuno-suppressive drugs and get down to a manageable amounts so I don't forget to get my 30-40 pills in per day. Check out my whiskers, I seem to fit in in the Seattle scene. As 70 year old Ringo says, "Peace and Love!"

Greg,did you have that virus before ? Slow down a bit might be the thing to do. Take care and keep us up to date. Love Dad and Alice
They are not sure when I picked it up, it could've been a long time ago. (60-80% of the general public have it.) I am slowing down, we are looking at R.V.'s believe it or not. Sun birds here we come!

Facial hair and an RV? I suppose medical marijuana is next? I am going to start calling you Ken Kesey. Live STRONG!
Hello I hope you are feeling better each day. It's a long haul that's for sure. It's been almost a year for me. I know it's hard not to laugh at my wierd voice.
Love, Cathy
The whiskers lasted a few weeks, back to as clean cut as I can get! I found out that I am not a merry prankster, more of a frustrated financial adviser. Off to Seattle for my Monday blood test after a nice hot weekend. Day 73!
