I echo Denise's sentiments.
Perhaps we can all sign a card or post card and get it off from Las Vegas...

Oh Joanna, Mark is going to be heartbroken when I tell him. Both of us just loved Jack. Please give Kathy a hug from me and let her know they are both in our thoughts.

Hi Joanna, please let them know John and I are thinking of them, too. They had such an interesting "life" story, I really enjoyed spending time with them both.
I like Suzanne's idea of the Vegas card. Hopefully he'll be back home by the time he gets it.

Jack has been moved from our small beaches hospital into Jacksonville hospital to have more tests to determine which procedure they will select - he is doing better and optimistic - so far so good!!! Joanna

Optimism is sometimes the best remedy! Keep your spirits high and happy and Godspeed!
Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends ~~M. Angelou~~

Update: Jack just got out of surgery they put one stint in tried for a second but too much blockage - he is fine - hope this is a strong wake up call - I was thinking I would encourage him to come on MINT but then I thought oh no more food and booze - not what he needs - thanks for many good thoughts and prayers - Joanna

Glad to hear good news...wishing Jack a speedy recovery. With careful planning he'll do fine - but it takes a lot of support. He's lucky to have friends like you and all of the others here!
The MINT cruise may still be possible, a heart healthy menu on RSSC would good for all of us!

Glad to hear that the stenting went well (or at least one of them). Hoping for a quick recovery and a possible join of MINT?

Tony and I spent Easter with Jack and Kathy - we took dinner down and he announced do not lecture me, no crusades, etc etc. Marty he loved your call and talked about MINT - we'll see - he is feeling vulnerable and scared - he talked about what fun we had on DDD - he is a very smart lawyer but no common sense when it comes to his health - so I am working on MINT - even if they are last minute people - so be it - Joanna
