TREAT-MINTS


my brother dom thought it was funny that the word treat is in what i am going through ..i can tell you that it is anything but that ........i mean where is the treat part....maybe they should put some beer in my IV during the session..now that would be a treat...well- round three is finished and "I'm still standing"....it tried to knock me down but missed the knock-out punch this time around......it is amazing what the human body can put up with when your a stubborn Italian from brooklyn.......63rd st between 17-18th ave..1756-63rd street......roots of where i began......and 54 years later still missing that front stoop in brooklyn with every passing day........this battle is going to come out victorious and I will stand the test of these times not allowing my will or determination to falter for more than a brief moment during my day.... if i ever feel that the walk is getting to long i have to remember to put my feet up sometimes and just enjoy the moment that i am in and remember that all of you would be more than happy to finish this walk for me.......i am now going to take the advice from my dearest friend and put those feet up and rest for three days.......happy holiday ......Tom....

Hi Tommy,
I see the stoops of Brooklyn everyday when I drive to work. They bring back wonderful memories. Keep up the fight!

Hey Tommy,

Lois told me you beat it again!!!! I clapped and thanked G-d for this blessing to keep our dear friend going..hopefully for at least another 46 years!

Talk to you soon...and hope to see at the next reunion..whatever size it is.

Always thinking of you and praying for you,

Love and stuff,

Michele
