Talking to Kevin today and he told me that his Mom-in-law needed Surgery. She has 80% blockage and that needs to get fixed.

Hi All , thanks for your kind thoughts a wishes for Ann's mom.She is unfortunately not a candidate for surgery due to her present health condition.They had sent her home with medication to thin her blood etc. As of last night she was back in the hospital.Some family have arrived from Australia which should help lift her spirits.Thanks again.

Bochsler Family Update

Last week I tried to "encourage" my family to post to this blog. I sent them all TERRIBLE pictures of themselves and threatened to post them here if they didn't post their own. Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :(

In the beginning when we could all fit it one room ...

This is my best guess as to who's who,I'd appreciate any help I can get.
