[claire]testing...

[Mark Holmes]

hi everyone,

just testing to see if this list works...

i spent the day with claire and her parents today.  and her friend Dirk 
is staying with her right now... so all of us trekked over to San Ramon 
to get hugged by Amachi (www.amma.org), the hugging saint from india.  
she's pretty cool, and we all got a great group hug.

claire's spirits were pretty good today, and her appetite is returning 
after a 2-month hiatus, which is great news.  we're both excited about 
our trip to india, and whatever that may bring.  she was telling me 
about the ashram there which sounds wonderful: 
http://www.sivananda.org/neyyardam/.  Dirk leaves Sunday, after passing 
the baton to Corey who's returning for another week of guard duty... i 
mean caretaking ;-)  wow, claire has really amazing friends--i'm 
continuously blown away.

anyway, just a quickie.  please pass the previous e-mail with 
instructions to sign up for the list to anyone you know who might be 
interested.

take care,

mark
