My wife Julie was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in mid December. She had surgery on Christmas eve day. She has had setbacks at every stage since then. She was in the hospital for a week in early February and now since the 10th of March in Waterloo about 40 miles away. She was not physically or mentally ready for chemotherapy, but she got half of the first round on the 12th and the other half on the 16th while in intensive care. Tomorrow we will be moving her to Hospice near home if she lasts that long. Prognosis is several days. Last night the boys and 2 of the grand-daughters were there to see her in intensive care. The most alert she has been in several days was when the 2 girls ages 5 and 8 were able to climb into bed with her to hug and kiss her. She smiled and was able to communicate her love for them. We were able to interrogate her as to her last wishes. She was able to communicate to us that she wanted to leave the hospital and go home to our town to hospice to be near most of us. Monday 39 years ago we set the date to be married 6 months forward. She will leave behind 3 sons, and 3 granddaughters, a brother and her parents,and me. We have been married for 2/3 of my life and more than that of hers. Her parents moved here about 7 years ago because her mother was going thru ovarian cancer treatment and because they needed help. She was the person that took care of everyone else. The local grandkids were with her every day when they were younger and sometimes called her mom instead of grandma. Her parents depended on her to make out of town doctor appointments. She will be sorely missed.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
