He's Here!

Hello All.
We wanted to announce the birth of our second son, Graham Bennett Nielsen. He was born on July 15 and weighed 7 lbs 9 oz even though he was three weeks early. We are pleased to have him join our family!

Barbara the Brave

Hi Everybody,

I wanted to let you know that Barbara started her chemotherapy treatments this last week (on Tuesday). They are going as expected. Meaning she is feeling the effects of the chemo. The doctors have chosen a very aggressive treatment to fight what may be left of the cancer. It will be very hard on her during treatment. I know that your thoughts and prayers will be much appreciated.

Bill is still off of work for the first few weeks of treatment. Cliff and I (and fam) will be traveling out for the month of August to help out and Krissy will be there after that. Phil and Julie visited this past weekend and will be visiting again when time permits.

I will continue to keep you updated.

Sandy
