Hi, I have a few boxes of 78's from the early 20th century, some were my moms, pre-WWII stuff, and her moms, from earlier. I bought a Victrola and have listened to a few of them. My question is what should I know about them, storing, playing, etc.? I play the Victrola for my grandkids sometimes, and they are fascinated how the doors are the volume controls.

Thank you.

A dear friend underwent approximately two years of treatments including chemo, double mastectomy/ lymphadenectomy with flap reconstruction. Her (hopefully) last surgery was over a year later, about two weeks ago, to move/remove fat tissue as part of the reconstruction (she is still quite sore and bruised). Even though much of it made her extremely ill and caused so much pain, I am grateful for it because she is alive and mending.

Aside from driving to appointments and sitting with them while they wait, seeing to it they have their meds, and sitting with them after surgeries, what things can people do to help?

Is it possible for you to have more children and do you want to?

How did the experience affect your life plan?

In the U.S. the first question is often if we can pay for treatments because such a thing can leave a family bankrupt, or go untreated due to cost; how do you feel about the system you have?

Thank you for your time.
