Carl,

It has long been a goal of mine to be included on your hard drive.

Having a daughter myself I know what it must mean to you to have her returning.

All the best to you and your family.

Mike McCarty

Carl I am looking at this as GOOD news! Just put on your miners hat, grab the flashlight and magnifier and go with your incredible attitude and patient persistence, and things will be GOOD!

I am glad your daughter is coming home (wow to leave SF), you know I have a daughter I could send you too! You know which one.

Carl, I'm so relieved. I was thinking about you yesterday, as I remembered that was the date when you were going to find out whether you could have surgery or not. I'll await news on how that goes and keep all my fingers crossed.

Dear Carl, there are a lot of folks in Georgia that you don't even know thinking of you and praying for you!

Thank you for the update.

I hope to meet you in person some day soon, till then and until you are up to the e-mails again, remember that I too am praying for your family, and your health.

Southern love to you,
Lynn

Hi Carl,
I just want to tell you that my wife recently went through an operation because of cancer. She is fine now. The cancer was detected at an early state , and she need no further treatment, so far.
Science is very advanced and all the best knowledge is available at all hospitals.
We think of you and hope the best.
You still have a lot of paints to do.
Allan

Carl, I certainly hope you'll have good news to share when we next hear from you. Until then, please know that my thoughts and prayers have been added to the list of those already praying and believing for your full recovery. If there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to ask. We are here for you.

I received another note from Carl, asking me to share. It sounds like he is doing well but is exhausted.

Quote:
I have not the energy or time to post on SOG myself today, so would you do me a favor and post there, that I made it through the operation successfully and*I'm on the mend.*I will know in a few months whether the operation was a complete cure, or if radiation will be necessary in addition. However things are looking up, and I deeply, deeply*thank everyone for their prayers.
*
Sad thing is his computer is up a flight a steps, so this limits his on line time - well just about makes it zero.

I would like to double thank you all for your kindness.

Beth

Hi Carl,
My first prayers for you have already been answered with your good news for surgery, and the chance of a complete recovery and cure. Every time I visit portraitartist.com (believe me that is many times a day!) you come to mind, and I say a prayer....

You are in Good Hands!! And with the people you love. I pray all goes well
God Bless,
Pat
