Good news.

My good friend in Tucson is out the mental hospital, and she is much more her old self (complete with sense of humor about her situation)than she has been in some time. It's really good to see. She's also getting a chance to spend more time with her son, who is a really smart and gifted seven year old, yet who has trouble staying on task in his work, and who constantly belittles himself. She thinks he might have ADD. I have urged her to get him tested and to work hard on teaching him coping strategies. If I'd had that sort of help 25 years ago, who knows what my life would be today?

Also, I must remember to talk to her on the phone soon, as she and her long time fiance (and Z's dad)have decided to plunge ahead with marriage next month, 1/2/03, in fact. I will be going, and I'll have to make arrangements tout suite if it's on.
