Hi there,
Glad to hear that things are going well so far. It sounds like china is quite the experience. Bernard and I love reading the blogs everyday. I’m glad Steph made it there ok and is there to help you guys out. Eric and Stephen want to know when you’re coming home, they miss Steph and want to know when their new best friend Brad is coming for a visit to go to the Flames game with them.
It sounds like the shopping amazing, I’ll be sure to send my wish list!! Hey Steph – how’s the FOOD!!! Anyways, we just wanted to let you know that we are thinking about you everyday and I hope all goes well. Take care and we’ll see you soon.
Lot of Love,
Lisa, Bernard, Eric and Stephen

Good luck Lorne and Brad! I read your blog every day, it helps to know that you are in the same hospital I will be in when I go there in December. Look forward to your next post— Please call when you get back home. Wishing you all the best of luck.

Just checking to make sure this message gets on to your Blog so it will be short. Sounds like things are good in China and you are managing quite nicely. Hopefully, Brad’s treatment is progressing well. Golf is almost over here and curling started yesteday, got our 1st W. Getting ready for the NHL season which starts this Wednesday. Scott, Eric and Stephen have started their hockey so we will be spending a lot of time in rinks again. Not doing very good in our NFL pool so maybe you could study Sunday picks and post, can’t be any worse then ours. I’ll sign off now and keep up the spirit. Ray

quite the trip for me 2 the airport ..because she has to stay at a hotel .I went & checked in early & had my first HOT shower.. wow better than sex… taxi ride is about 35 mins. to the airport ..what i had was chinese paper just saying airport not knowing that I had to go to the arrivals he thought I was leaving quite the conversation we had All with our hands ..had to phone the hospital &they explained to him that I was picking up my daughter not leaving …we managed & she has arrived safe & sound ..I stayed at the hotel because I couldnt get back in the hospital ..as it locks it doors at 9.00 p.m….
it is now tue. 8.a.m. & Steph has taken Brad to his accupunture ..Brad was happy 2 see her as I was getting on his nerves ..it will relieve the pressure or I might have to get accupunture… We will be take Brad to the hotel where he will soak in the tub for an hour …
well bye for now Lorne

found out what wed is …a big holiday like our 1st of july call it national day in 1949 they must have gained their independance ..that is when we go to the zoo ..& u can come 222
went to the wholesale mart have these nice marble floors & as we are walking around this guy upchucks a bit.. hoarks ..& just let his spit fly right in front of us ..this is not uncommon even the women do it ..with all the pollution you have to clear your throat said God bless u & he said thanz sou ….
had a good walk about & saw a lot of different departments.. saw one in particular womens underwear aint no.. victoria secrets ..most was flannel / quilted longjohns ..I assume because the heat is like the hot water… None… a lot of them had extra pads on the knees …wonder what that is for I guess Praying …any u guys want a pair for your women….
had another mystery wrap Brad had one bite & thru it away I managed to eat mine all ..not bad ….
of all the people here Brad is the only one that is capable of walking.. all the others are in wheel chairs…so is a lot easier for him to get around the city & at least do a few things ..some never get out of the hospital ….everyone very friendly & all speak english..that is the patients for the stem cell treatments..well another day done so bye for now
