Jinni starts seven weeks of radiation today which is where she leaves off in the latest version of Jinni's Journal. Her 7th submission in the ongoing series appears in the Life section of today's N&R.
In the article, she alludes to the story I told a few weeks back about the 'grocery angel' which is cross posted at 'What's Up With Jinni'. The entire series of N&R articles can be found here.

The accompanying picture is a true-to-life moment, except for one thing. Jack has his driver's permit and is supposed to get behind the wheel at every opportunity. Even though he turned 16 on September 1st, he ain't getting his license until he learns how to drive. And you can't learn to drive from the passenger seat, Jackson.
