  Query: What do you recommend for PDF reading that allows highlighting and annotation -- for a PC? Yes, I'm an old fogey and have relied on pen-and-ink until now.

  Hospice care is a blessing. (My brother in law's mom has entered care for late-stage cancer.) Gisela's room has a view of the lake, I'm told. And pain management is a gift for sure. Klaus is able to be there with her for a time, but given the state of international travel, neither grandkid can go. Hard to say goodbye over the telephone.
