Hargus "Pig" Robbins (the greatest) had his first chemotherapy today for
hodgkin's lymphoma (my spelling may be way off here); he had malignancy,
but there was no spreading, and Vicky tells me that the recovery
rate is 99%+, so that is good news. He is going to have to have
radiation later. The chemo/radiation will go on for four months. That's
about all I know.

I hope everybody will keep Pig in their thoughts and prayers, as well as Tommy, Dan, and anyone else starting this New Year in less than good health.

It's been said here on the forum, that the formula for a hit country record must include Pig Robbins on the piano. I know he's played with many, many stars, and I get a thrill from those rolling fills on Alan Jackson's records.

Best wishes, Pig, for a full recovery and continued success in the recording biz.
