For Hannah and Dad.

This week my good friend Grace's sister Hannah starts her radiation treatment. Grace is an army ICU nurse saving lives in Baghdad and she's smack in the middle of a 15 month tour. I know she wishes she was back home with her sister and playing with her brand new nephew, but Uncle Sam screwed that one up. Please keep Hannah in your prayers... because if you don't Grace will kick you in the shins :)

Coincidently next week my Dad goes into surgery to start his treatment. Its not exactly how I envisioned spending my 30th birthday, but I'm glad I'll get to spend it with Mom and Dad (for the first time in a long time). I know Dad's going to be fine, and hopefully the Nets decide to win a couple games while he's recovering to make treatment go a little easier (and make that push into the playoffs).

So if there's one thing this soon to be suddenly over-the-hill triathlete wannabe wants for his birthday wish...it's a full and speedy recovery for Hannah and Dad.
