This is a tribute to my wonderful wife, Tiki. She is pictured here in front of the Cliffs of Mohr on the west coast of Ireland. This was a happy moment during a great trip.
Recent times have been darker. She has just completed her last session of chemotherapy in a third bout with cancer. I am proud to say that she has come through this latest struggle with flying colors!
After several years of travel and adventures in foreign lands, 2012 has posed a special challenge for us. My first full year back in the States started with the passing of my Mother and then segued into a war with cancer in Tiki's latest fight. To make matters worse, her Mother fell gravely ill while Tiki was in the middle of her treatments, which obviated a journey across country by Tiki to rally her siblings. Fortunately, her Mother has since gained some ground.
We are not completely through Tiki's therapies but the worse is over. She is a great fighter! We look forward to putting this year in the rear-view mirror and to having new adventures in the future.
