About Me
Physician, married x 38 yrs. 2 sons ages 34 and 31, with three grand-daughters ages, 2, 4 and 5 and a boy on the way, due October, 2008! I am semi-retired and active in our church as a Stephen Minister, a Deacon on Home Communion subcommittee, and served one year as a Stephen Leader, but my part-time work demands more time than I anticipated and sometimes conflicts occur when I see members of our nearby church at the medical clinic, so have stepped down from my Stephen Leader role of Awareness Building. The dog you see above is a yellow Lab, which is my younger son's. I really enjoy visiting his family who lives in Tiburon, California.
