Boston GTG, 2011
 
Karen and I were discussing what we should do this year about holding a GTG. Our consclusion is that for this year we should skip hosting such an event, given Andy's current medical situation.

We will miss seeing everyone, but I promise that we will do something next year---2012.

Andy is hanging in there, is mobil, but with many side issues. His tumor has expanded considerably and his future is less than bright. We hope for the best, but realize the inevitable.

Thanks for the early notice, Bob. I will really miss being there, but understand completely.

Please give both Andy and Beth my best.

I'll miss it, too, and thanks for the update on Andy. I was wondering how he's doing.

Bob and Karen, thanks for letting us know. I completely understand that this time isn't conducive to a GTG. It's a sad and stressful time. I'll look forward to 2012 and hope we all can meet then.

Bob, I totally understand you and Karen's decision, and like those who have already posted, I too will miss not seeing everyone this year, but there are other priorities right now. Our collective thoughts and prayers go to Andy and Beth with a special appreciation to you and Karen for being such amazing friends to them.
