Thanks a bunch, Audio Track. And yes, this community is fantastic!
Di fell out of bed earlier this week and hit her head on the side table and suffered a concussion and a cut on her earlobe. She's somewhat confused and her speech is a bit slurred. She has another appointment with her doctor this coming Tuesday. I keep a close watch on her. She needs lots of rest and limited mobile activity.
We appreciate your thoughts.

An Update ...
Di is in the hospital. She had a heart attack Friday evening. She's stable and coherent. She also has septecimia (blood infection). They're monitoring her to ensure it doesn't progress to sepsis. She's at the Decatur-Morgan Hospital in Decatur, AL. I feel they are taking good care of her.
I'm doing pretty good - just tired and concerned.

Thanks for the update, Al.
Keeping yourself occupied with music creativity is hopefully helpful, as no doubt there is a lot of stress in you life right now.

Alan, you both are in my prayers.
You be sure to take care of yourself.
Unclear if the pianist is a total beginner or a professional jazz player?

Not great news Alan,
I'm glad she's being cared for. Of course you know of the risks at present so I'll just offer fingers, thumbs, arms, legs, toes and eyes crossed for a great outcome for both of you. While Di's in care remember that you also need to breath, rest & recharge.
Cheers

Many sincere thanks to all who have commented so nicely over the course of this thread. It's been uplifting and a source of strength.
The good news is that Di came home from the hospital late this evening. She's exhausted but doing a great job of hanging in there. She asked me to express her personal appreciation for your concern and support. She's resting comfortably in her own bed as I type.
Wishing all of you nothing but the very best. And thanks again.

A Quick Update ...
I've been away from the site for several weeks, but I'll be writing & posting again in the near future - might wait until BIAB 2025 arrives before starting any new projects. So, maybe a couple from years past in the meantime. I just needed a break to reorganize and rejuvenate a bit. I have to stay healthy enough to care for Di.
She is holding steady except her physical strength continues to diminish. I got her out of the house for the first time in a very long time (over a year - other than medical appointments). Our daughter's birthday was Friday, and we went to see her and take her a gift. We stayed about 2 hours. That was a significant effort for Di, but she managed with help.
Hard to believe our daughter is 56 years old! Yikes!!!
Anyway, just wanted to pass on her current status and, again, offer our thanks for everyone's support and kind words.
Wishing everyone the best and wishes for the best with your musical journeys.
Be safe and keeping post those terrific songs on the User's Forum. And wishes for success for those who create with BIAB but don't post on the forum.
I'm doing pretty good, all considered.
Alan & Di

Alan & Di, happy birthday to your daughter! Yes, birthdays can be surprising reminders, can't they? Don't know where the time goes, or how it gets there so fast...
Glad you are both doing well under the circumstances. Staying as active and focused as you can sounds like a good strategy for conserving your energy and being there for each other. Imagine that's easier for me to say than it is for you to do.
THANKS for the update! Miss you both and think of you often.
All the best, Ron

Alan, Updates are always welcome. Great to read Di was able to get out of the house for a few hours. I'm sure the visit lifted up everyone's spirits. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Di.
Here's a news item that might bring you encouragement. Former US President Jimmy Carter recently celebrated his 100th birthday and voted, all while receiving hospice care for more than a year.
