Emails, July 28, 2009, 7:27 a.m.

I have emails. Hundreds of them. Many from people reading this blog. I try to respond to all of them and can't. There are too many. But I read them. All of them. The heartfelt words support me and keep me going. All the love, thoughts and prayers surround me and prop me up. Many emails are from people I have never met. Friends of friends, or further down the chain. I hope to meet all of you one day. Please keep writing. Please keep commenting. It's because of you that I keep going.
