Quiet














Wordless Wednesday has great timing again this week. My brother, Eric is quietly, solitarily, and subtly fighting for his life. He is going through his own version of "chemotherapy" this afternoon and for the next two days. Crazily enough, he has to eat a pill that will activate the iodine injections in his body thus making him radioactive and unable to be around another soul for three days. Did I mention he'll be at home, in his house, alone? That's crazy, isn't it? To me, it's insane and science fiction and ridiculous that this type of treatment is not monitored in a hospital but I know Eric prefers it this way. Home is where he is happiest. So, for today, I post this picture and thank you all for sending along good juju to him while he beats off the boredom, loneliness, and stir-crazies with calendar writing, guitar playing, and plenty of bad movie watching. We love you, Pecor! May the next few days go by quickly for you, Christie and Landon.
