Happy New Year!(belated) On New Years Eve we had a pre-emptive toast to midnight. And then on New Years Day we celebrated our late Christmas. We started to open presents amongst ourselves for the first part of Christmas. Once Tony felt well enough, he came out to exchange gifts. It was a very lovely low-key Christmas amidst these very trying times. Tony also received a beautiful quilt from Jeanne Manser.

12.31.03

A photo gallery has been started with 6 photographs from Marc Rosenthal. I will post more as I find them.

12.30.03

Tony has now moved back to the home he loves. While he is very pleased to be home he is also very weak. He is quite comfortable in his retrofitted room. Hopefully he will be rested enough soon to have the Christmas that has been moved T.B.A. He will be under the care of a Hospice worker for the time being.

12.27.03

Tony is looking forward to coming home from the hospital within the next three days. After considering his options with his doctors and loved ones, he has decided to not enter into chemotherapy, but rather to go home for a peaceful rest. Today, at his request, Tony recieved a visit from his beloved cousin Sue Pierce.

Thank you all for the tremendous support that has been flooding our mailboxes, both real and electronic. I am working on a page of pictures. If you have any choice pictures that you would like to include please send them to Marc@MarcDavenport.com (I will do the re-sizing and color for them)

12.22.03

The Davenports have moved Christmas. We will be celebrating christmas at a later date this year so that we can be together as a family and not stress about getting a particular day together. Christmas is now T.B.A.

12.21.03

Tony is currently at the James Cancer Hospital in Columbus. He is under observation for complications with his liver.

12.15.03

Ben, David, and Michelle are now the legal children of Anthony Davenport. Tony adopted them in court today in Lancaster.
