PS< LIttle WHip thank you for keeping everyone up to date

Elie, I know you don't like me, but I want to apologize for my comments; they were wrong.

I'm sending you all I have; vibes, thoughts, prayers and the like are coming your way. I'm also gonna light a candle for you, and ask everyone I know to put you in their prayers and thoughts.

Whip, thanks for the updates. I'll drop in after work to see how he's doing.

Keep fighting guy.

Peace, ~Lucas

Hello All - I don't have alot more to report....his temperature is down slightly this morning, but there has not been any other significant change. They have done xrays, bronchictomy, ultrasound, spinal tap and cat scans, all with negative results. The only thing that we have not gotten the results back on are the lung cultures and they should be back today or tomorrow.

I wanted to say thank you. This generous outpouring of love and good wishes made me feel so good, I had to sit down and have a good cry before I could respond.

I will do as was suggested in an earlier post and take the page of responses with me to the hospital today and read them to Elie. He has not regained consciousness since Sunday, but I'm betting that somewhere in there, he can hear my voice.

Thank you all so very much, especially those of you that were able to put your differences with Elie aside to offer your kind wishes.

I'll certainly let you know as things progress. Yes, please do send cards, but NOT flowers as ICU does not allow them....

Thank you all again. I am so touched and grateful.

Colleen

Colleen - stay strong. *wrapping you in a huge hug*

Thank you all so very much, especially those of you that were able to put your differences with Elie aside to offer your kind wishes.

there is a time and place for everything. now is the time for love and support to let a warrior know and feel that we are fighting with him in whatever small way we can. there will be plenty of time for robust and sometimes heated debate when he is well and back here with us:) ...and let him know i very much look forward to it.

and thanks whip and colleen for the prompt updates and opportunity to send a more personal gesture of love and support. i, for one am most grateful.

Oh, wow.

Please send my love to Elie. He is, and will stay, in my thoughts.

When I was in the hospital with a little kidney infection this man went to the trouble of finding out how to contact me and called me...more than once...to check on me. In fact, he was the first person besides my husband and children, to find out that my baby would be a girl. I remember how sweet he was, repeating her name back to me on the phone.

He has always been one to check on people if they haven't been blogging much, or to offer words of encouragement (or hard-earned wisdom) when one of us are struggling. He is so fiery and yet underneath it all, such a soft-hearted person.

Elie is a precious, precious man, unique in all the world, and it hurts to hear how very sick he is. Thank you, Colleen (and Michele and Sabrina) for keeping us updated. He is so loved, and I hope he knows that.

Colleen,

Elie is a lucky man to have so wonderful a woman such as you. I know he will hear you. I dont think he can resist your voice!

Peace and hugs dear lady.

Please add my thoughts and prayers to the list.

I am praying for him and you Colleen. Thank you for taking the time to let us know how he is. He is so loved.

I'm so glad to hear that. Thanks for the update.

Tell him to hang in there and get well.

thanks for the update,,,looks like maybe some of the positive energy flowin from JU is paying off!
