We’re back from Chicago and had a great trip. Turns out PBS is working on a program on religion and medicine, which was the theme of the conference that I attended. Michelle was filmed back at the university and at the scene of her accident. I did a three hour interview with the producers. Maybe you’ll see us on TV but it won’t be for awhile. We all came home exhausted.
