We've already seen two patients from South Dakota in the past two weeks. We were stunned.

Over the past several years our team has executed a major restructuring of the company while simultaneously demonstrating strong financial performance.

Going out each day, we take every team the same as we've taken teams in the past. Every game is important, because it's our next game. That's what we believe.

Personally I am haunted by the irony that someone like Sheila, whose message to the world was all about nurturing, could have a child who would shoot her.

There is no one I have ever known who personified more the loving, caring universal mother figure. She was always studying nutrition, child care issues ... and constantly looked for ways to better her care of either her own children or the ones she sat for.

To my delight, instead of the usual unkempt, gum-chewing, tobacco-scented, tired and bored woman in a bad part of town, I was greeted by a lovely, clean, organized and educated lady with a deep and true love of children.
