My friend Mike

This is my friend Mike. Mike is a true friend. The kind of friend everyone wants but few people ever have. I ‘m blessed to have Mike as my friend. He is here with his wife Sue. Mike and Sue have been our friends for many years. Mike is a pretty cool guy. Mr. meticulous I call him. He does things in excruciating detail sometimes, and then he thinks he hasn’t done enough. Mike knows a lot too. He is a wealth of information about jazz music. He loves some sports. I’m not sure which ones but I think basketball, and fooball. Sports hold very little interest for me so I never pay attention. He and Alice have some great conversations about sports. He and I really hit it off when we realized we both liked jazz though. We have been on some great vacations together. Mike is a person you want to go on vacation with. He researches in great detail any place he visits – before he gets there. I suspect he knows more about a place when he gets there than most locals. Me, I just go to places and find out things as I go along. I like going places with Mike.

Mike recently found out he has a tumor on one of his adrenal glands. He will soon have surgery to have it removed. He is dealing with it well. I’m not. No one has said yet whether it is malignant. Most of the time these things are not. I will pray for my friend Mike. To add to that most of the time stat.
