One Day At A Time

It's hard to believe that only a few weeks have gone by since Ron's cancer diagnosis. It seems like months. It's remarkable how quickly and completely everything in your life can change. Clarity can come swiftly, and things that seemed so important just a few weeks ago, barely seem to register anymore. Most mornings for the last 12 years I would walk into the studio...usually a tad grumpy, still sleepy....and Ron would yell out "Carmen Shmunter". It was just a silly thing he did that irritated me, which was probably why he kept doing it. I never thought the day would come when I'd give anything to hear those words. I know that many of you are anxiously awaiting some kind of update. The fact is that there isn't a whole lot to say. Ron is resting and gathering his strength to fight hard. I see or at the very least talk to Ron every single day, and he knows how many people are behind him on this path. He has been genuinely touched by all of the love and support that has been sent his way, and wants you all to know how grateful he is. It has been a gift to spend time with Ronnie these last few weeks. We have laughed a lot, we have cried a little and we have planned for the better days ahead. I have to believe they are coming.... Fight hard Ron......Carmen misses you very much.
