I say go for it and ship it out to John while you can : )FlyingPenguin wrote:Hmmm. Not sure I KNOW all your real names. Not sure he would either. My handwriting is nothing to holler about, and there's only so much room on the card, so I'd prefer keeping it to:
"Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.
Darcy, Reno, Executioner, LosBot, Err, Normalicy, GuardianAsher, Genom, FlyingPenguin, and the rest of your friends at PCA."
This is for him, and assuming it gets to him while he's mentally all there, he'll get it.

What else does John have to go through???,,
Post from Elmdea this morn:
"Well ... John now has shingles! It’s on the top and left side of his head. We’ve got the anti-viral and I’ll be getting some lidocaine cream this morning. Any soothing and healing energy you can send would be gratefully received.
Also - I’ll be ok. I called my GP this morning re: if I need to get the vaccine. Answer - you can only contract shingles 2 ways: from someone who has chicken pox; or if your immune system is compromised and you’ve had chicken pox, in which case the dormant virus can activate. I’ve been making sure my immune system is in good shape."

Just went out UPS. Due to the storm they couldn't guarantee it before Wednesday.

Re: The doctors have run lots of tests on me and the news is not good.
I haven't been online much lately for reasons, but just hopped on to see updates on this thread.
I am so sorry to hear that John is not doing as well as we all hoped. But I love the idea of the card and the floppies. This is one of the best groups of people that I am so pleased to be a part of. One big family.
Still in my prayers. And everyone in the hurricane zone too.

I know some of you wanted to chip in for the cost, but I've got it. Didn't cost much.
I appreciate everyone's ideas and suggestions.
i did put a post it note on the floppies saying 'Since you're such a high tech guy, maybe you can use these.'

Re: The doctors have run lots of tests on me and the news is not good.
I received this email from Elmdea for his PCA family, and let her know I would pass it on:
"I've been keeping John up to date re: Dorian. He asked if I could let
his PCA friends know he's thinking of them and he hopes they'll be safe."
