Is there anything worth digging up around the Houston
Area in Texas?
My husband was just diagnosed with a rare form of
genetic cancer, Schlerosing Epthelioid Fibrosarcoma, 
(a soft cell tissue cancer).  We will be going to
M.D.Anderson soon, and we will stay there through out
his treatments.  
He wants me to go and dig, and not have to stay in the
housing for ever, and if he feels like it go and dig
too.
"A bad way to ask directions!~"  

We are lively people who don't want to stay sick for
long periods of time!
Teri J

If there are any of you who pray, Prayers would be
appreciated.
