I know that it is easy to become discouraged when bad things continue to happen. My heart goes out to you, Linda. All we can do from way out here in the PNW is to pray for his recovery.

I know Bill is in good company with you at his side Linda. One of my favorite pumpkin pictures of all time, is you and Bill either side of his 1566 World Record pumpkin, that photo tells a story if I ever saw one. If the doctors will allow, make sure Bill gets outside in the fresh air and sunshine, that can do a world of good for a guy that most certainly loves the outdoors. Bill you hang in there, you will be back. I started one of your seeds out of your 1566. The main is now 9ft on a stout compact plant, also the first female was pollinated today on this plant. Even if you can't get a plant in the ground Bill you can follow the progress of one of your 1566 plants taking on the unmerciful Alaskan weather on my diary. Keep the faith Bill and Linda. Best wishes from Alaska. J.D. Megchelsen

Hang in there Bill, we're all cheering for your speedy recovery. We really enjoyed meeting you both at last year's NH patch tour & were in awe at the size of your pumpkins. We hope your feeling better & look forward to hearing one day soon that you can return to the patch. We wish you & Linda all the best.
