Hi Adam,

You are a good man. I take care of an elderly parent at home, and it is
wonderful to hear that you too have the love and concern to want to take
care of family. Too often, parents are shoved off to live the rest of their
lives in an assisted living facility because nobody wants them. They cared
for us when we were children, but somehow, that does not always come full
circle when they grow elderly.

Yes, there are instances where assisted living is the only good option, but
like you, I wish to avoid that until it becomes absolutely necessary.

I sincerely hope that your mother-in-law's health continues to improve.

Warm Regards,
Ed Deckert

Dear List Members,

I tried everything possible to attend the Tucson Show but too many other
pressing concerns have come up.

The main concern is for my mother-in-law who we moved out here to Laughlin
three years ago. She has been having medical issues and her primary doctor
says leaving her alone for a few days is out of the question right now. We
do not want the state to place her in assisted living so we are doing our
best to work with her doctors, who in my opinion, have been over-prescribing
medications. A new doctor cut back her medications and she seems to be doing
better but it is too soon to tell. We almost lost her a few years ago due to
counterfeit Chinese medications that made it into American market.

My new wife , Zann von Hupe (married on 12-12-2012 at 12:00 noon) has had to
take care of her the last couple of weeks because I caught a nasty cold
which lasted way too long and her mother can no longer drive herself to
doctors' appointments. My advice is to get a flu shot before going to Tucson
if you haven't already. It takes two weeks to kick in and could save you a
lot of downtime and misery.

Luckily for me, they are having a Gem and Mineral Show right here in
Laughlin, Nevada. I am glad to see a new show in town since the McCloud
Jamboree which was held outdoors went away. This new show could be the start
of something fantastic since the economic advisers are talking about a
massive 18-hotel wide event with over 20,000 rooms available here in town.

I also booked two adjacent spots at the Remember When Antique Show if any of
you are in town from February 22 to the 24th. I will have many artifacts,
tons of antiques and maybe some meteorites on display.

I wish everybody a successful and enjoyable Tucson Show. I regret not being
able to join in the festivities but life has a way of setting priorities.

Adam
