La Chu-Cha



Yes, it's called la "Chu-Cha". Not as our cousin, Ulyses Jr. thought, when he once slammed it down on the table in the middle of a dominos game, surrounded by family and screamed, "LA CHO-CHA!!". What a difference a vowel makes! Gringos: ask a Latino what Cho-cha means.

Anyway, Jim, Tom, Tommy Jr. and myself spent the evening last night slamming dominos with Pop. Here's the unanswered question (waiting to be answered by a dominios' historian): If you end the game with "La Chu-Cha" do you claim the 100 point "premio". In spite of dad's sickness, Jim & Tom would not give in to Pop and I. Therefore, they won, but if this question is proven to be true, Pop and I may regain some bragging rights.

I wanted to post upcoming Pop's chemo therapy appointments for the next four weeks.

Monday, June 5th @ 7:30 am
Tuesday, June 13th @ 7:30 am
Tuesday, June 20th @ 7:30 am
Tuesday, June 27th @ 1:00pm (to see the oncologist) and 1:30 (for chemo)

I'll keep you all posted and let you know how Pop continues to tolerate the chemo. Pop remains in good sprits and appreciates phone calls and time spent with him.
