Hi Burly,

It was nice to be able to have spent some time with you and Betty at the World Tournament.

Since we returned home our life has been pretty much turned up-side down.

Last Thursday our oldest grand daughter, who is four was not feeling well.  After some blood test, they sent her up to Children's Hospital in Milwaukee.  By the afternoon we were told that she has Leukemia.  Need less to say its been a real shock to our family as Alyssa has always been a very healthy little girl.  On Sat. she had her first treatment and at this time is doing very well.  Hopefully she will be able to come home today but we know that it is going to be a long two years and we have a very long road ahead of us.

I need for everyone to please say a prayer for our little Alyssa.

Her address is :  Alyssa Simonz

                         W201 N16250 Ash Drive

                          Jackson, WI. 53037

Thank you everyone!

Lorraine
