Default So proud of my wife

She's great. Just got her test results back in from the biopsy & everything is negative. Both of us are extremely relieved & she's almost good as new. Thanks again from both of us for all your positive thoughts & prayers.

On another note, some of you that know us well, knows that she sings. She sings mainly in Thai, so I cant even understand the words, but she enjoys it. She just recently finished cutting her first CD and earlier this week we got the first 1000 copies delivered. I had no idea of all the work that goes into cutting a CD with all the work of production, mastering, artwork, etc. She's not signed with any label, so we had to finance all the production costs ourselves. A couple days ago, her stuff went live on iTunes and Amazon.

It's makes me proud to know it really isn't about whether we break even, make, or lose money in this, but rather that she pursued what she believed in & enjoyed.

I'm not posting this in the hopes that anyone here will buy her music since it's not even in the English language, and is mostly a traditional Thai folk style of music. I just wanted to share with all of you just how proud I am of her for just trying.

Happy to hear that Kelly. Always great to receive a "negative" regarding a biopsy, and congratulations to June on the release of her CD

Default Re: So proud of my wife

That's great news that her health is ironed out, and maybe even more amazing news that she's achieved something so close to her heart. You're absolutely right, brother. You can't hang a dollar sign on the happiness this music project has brought her, or how happy it's made you to see her smile.
It made me misty. You're a good man, my friend. And a very fortunate one.

So glad the test results were negative, Kelly....best news all year.

June is apparently as talented as she is beautiful. You are a lucky man...but she is lucky to have you as well.
