Ted's mother had the disease and Linda's father is being tested for it today. It is everywhere and I fear it will creep up on me.
Pat Summitt is dealing with this diagnosis with all the grit and perseverance for which she is so well known and loved. This woman is not a quitter and will do all that she can to manage this challenge in the most positive way possible. She is a real inspiration. Bravo to U. Tenn. for standing with her. Thank heaven she has the access to the medical care she needs. Many many people do not.
Yes,saw this on the news a while back and so sad.For she was a great coach and wonderful woman.So young.
It is everywhere and I fear it will creep up on me.
