My nephew was diagnosed on January 10, 2009 with Acute Myeloid Monocytic Leukemia. Since that time, I have been joined in a battle for his life that includes every member of my family and the communities of Elkhorn City, KY. and Pikeville, KY. as well as individuals scattered throughout the world. I have been writing articles on his condition and the activities taking place to save his life during this time, but that has not been my only contribution to the cause. I have been personally involved in nearly every activity I have written about as well as others. I also go to the hospital to see him when I can and try to keep family and friends informed of events as they take place. Consequently, I have not had the time or energy to invest in my articles that I have had in the past. Some mistakes get past me until it is too late to correct them.
This is hardly an excuse for sloppy writing, but I feel I owe my readers some explanation. I offer my sincere apologies and promise to put forth my best efforts to improve the articles. Please, continue to check back here for news about my nephew as the war against Leukemia continues.
