I went to the "Dinosaur Brunch" again today, and was so pleased to see Ed, a new arrival. Al is on the left, and Ed, on the right is a writer who I worked with for years at the paper. We worked on some really neat stories together. About two years ago, Ed had a massive stroke which he is only now recovering from. He told me that 7 months ago it took him all day to write one sentence! He has progressed a great deal since then, and had his first column published in a local newspaper today. It was so good to see him after all this time, and to see how far he has progressed.
Good for you, Ed. May you continue to grow stronger each day. You look great (and so does Al). Great to see two old friends from the Newsday family.
ReplyDeleteKen, we understand you're hosting a party of former Newsday people who would love to get together for an evening of reminiscing. Can't wait to get the invitation! Let us know how we can help.
WHAAAAAAT? I don't know anything about this... We reminisce at the Dinosaur Brunches...
