^{Seasons Greetings!} 

1999 has been a very busy and exciting year for The Cash Clan! In many ways it has been a year of rest and recovery, but it has also been a year of quiet reflection. For the first time in quite a few years, I’m not dreading “my next surgery.” After twenty-two surgeries (including, six major surgeries since 1989), you’d think it would get easier as time goes by, but it doesn’t. In fact, quite the opposite is the case; I get white-knuckled just thinking about it!
