How on earth is Steve knitting all these hats so fast??!!  I'm only just finishing my second scarf and hat combo!  Granted there's been a bit of lay time with the old brain surgery and all... but jeez!  He's a machine!  I think he should enter a speed knitting competition!
Right sided AN 2.7cm at last MRI.  Hearing loss/facial numbness.  Translab scheduled March 11th 2009.  Translab at Royal Melbourne Hospital, Australia successful!  Total tumour removed, SSD, no facial issues, numbness has left the building, balance issues but they'll get better and I'm loving life!

Ya know, I'vew been away for awhile and now that I am back, everywhere I turn I see these kick-butt knit scarves!  Which can only mean that Steve is hard at work!  Steve, I want a roll cap in blue, please!!!  Pretty please?  I will wear it to the symposium (a knit cap in August in Chicago - am I crazy???)

Really nice work, Steve!

I plan to make a donation to the ANA in his honor.

I received an acknowledgment of this today. Thank you, Jan. It is a great idea, and flattering to me at the same time. :)

Well, I was basically doing a good deed to reward the good deed of another  ;D

And my good deed is tax deductible which is always a plus  :D

K -

I'm not sure of this - because I'm getting older and forgetful - but I think the ANA will tell you when your membership is up.

Is this true, Steve?  Or did I just make that up?
