A Little Help From My Friends

As I mentioned before we have a huge support system here by the name of the Argocrew. And these are the most amazing people I've ever met and have ever been around.

I've been letting everyone know what's been going on via this blog, email and a few frantic phone calls here and there. And the kind words and thoughts that are being sent my and my family's way is like a wave of adrenaline.

There have been a lot of comments on how strong I've been through this ordeal and what a good attitude I've been maintaining. And after some serious thought about it tonight, I think it's because I know I'm not alone. I have about 50 people on call right now, and that's very comforting. And that makes me brave, and strong.

I'm not a mushy person, expressing feelings and emotion is not what I'm about. But today the 30 emails I received from my friends with nothing but well wishes and offers from cleaning my house to cooking me dinner to getting Eddie Vedder for me to lick made me sob like a baby. It all moved me in such a way I almost created a river that I was going to have to swim in.

Ally and Jack are the luckiest kids in the world to be surrounded by such love. The family of friends we have created here in DC is irreplaceable.

You all know who you are, and I thank you. You have all made me speechless with your kindness and you know that must say something!
