		<description><![CDATA[I spent just over five days with Mom and Bop and had a great time.  Mom looks good, though thinner, and she hasn&#8217;t begun to resemble a banana (no jaundice).  She managed to eat and keep food down most of the time I was there, and Karmen seems to think it&#8217;s because of me.  I [...]]]></description>

Mom is still tired.  She&#8217;s tired of feeling sick and tired.  She&#8217;s even tiring of Oprah, the Judges, and Sudoku.   Like HOW could that ever happen? 
Mom has been enjoying all the visitors and, although it exhausts her, it is giving her something to look forward to each day besides her daily dose of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Somebody found this blog by doing a search for &#8220;ANAL SHOOTING MUDSKIPPERS&#8221;. 
When Beth Ann and I named this blog, we intended its title to mean that we are tag-teaming to keep people updated, not, like, merging.  Physically. 
For people who want to &#8220;merge&#8221; with small slimy creatures, feel free to do so at your own risk of embarassment [...]]]></description>
