Yes, Paw Paw is still alive. I've been really sick this week; guess the ol' flu bug just had to see if I had anymore fight left in me. Tater and Odie are doing well. They check on me often to see how I am doing. It really is nice to have two cuddly ferts to keep you company when you are sick. I woke up enough tonight to eat a liitle dinner and ask Mee Maw to check the mail for me. WOW!! Thanks for all the nice letters. I only read a couple of them and that's all it took to know that I'd better respond before the FLO sent out a missing persons report on old Paw Paw. Thank you for your love and concern. It means a great deal to me to have so many friends. Perhaps, in a few days, I'll be able to write more. Many much loves, hugs and germy kisses from, Paw Paw [Posted in FML issue 1508]
