Wow I am finally taking the plunge!


Hi Heid, Hi Stef, Hi Kim,Hi Megan,Hi Michelle,Hi Family:

This is it guys, what you all have been waiting for, he he, The Marchants are now bloggers!
I must thank my friends and family who have been after me to do this for the last eighteen months, I have a good excuse though as you all know I was pretty busy beating Lung Fibrosis since the summer of '06, and the battle continues! So, in that vein I will start my blog with a quote from Shakespeare (I love to quote him, just ask Dar and Jade). This quote came to mind over and over in the summer of '06 now I know why:)

"Gather Ye Rosebuds While Ye May" in other words, get down on the floor and play with your kids, eat dessert for lunch (my Dad taught me this) Kiss your sweetie and tell them how much they mean to you, better get honoring those parents, I mean really, thank them for the million little things they did, and stop what you are doing right now and appreciate what you have at the moment...

Now with that said we are a typical family about every day of the week I just happen to also be on a first name basis with some of the best pulmonary doctors in the country and our life goes on thanks to a little medicine called Cellcept and my Faith.
