My dear husband has really been  beat up by the beast for the last few weeks.  He was living a 2 year remission dream after being chronic for 15 years.  That all came to an end a couple months or so ago.
We'd been on a 'routine' and were managing to keep the SOB down to a dull roar.  We went to Florida for a few days, got off our 'routine' and all hell broke lose.

Anyway, the reason for this post....

THANK YOU ALL

for the PM's, e-mails and phone calls.  Blake was getting low as whale shit (ooops sorry) mentally and just plain worn out (you all know the feeling to well)  Your kindness, vibes, love and well wishes have given him a much needed lift.  He's actually smiled today.....his dobber is back up. :)

Again....thank you all from the bottom of our hearts.  I don't know how any of us would make it without this home and the good people here.  I know we sure wouldn't want to try.

And to DJ & Steph....thank you for giving us a soft place to land   :-*

We love you all dearly,
Jackie & Blake

Love and hugs to you and Blake, Jacks.   [smiley=hug.gif]

I think I've been living on another planet for a while now - Jackie, I didn't even know about Blake.  I'm so sorry to hear he's suffering.

Give him my best and tell him to kick butt and take names!

Hugs
Carol

Hang in there Blake. Remember, you ain't alone anymore.  When you hurt, we all hurt, and when you rejoice, we all rejoice with you.

We feel the same way about you two angles!

I think it's doubly evil when it comes back after a long remission . . . .

Our good vibes and prayers for you always Blake (and Jackie and family, too)

Blake and Jackie My heart and thoughts are with you both.

Hope that getting back to your "routine" brings things back into a managable mode very very soon!

Blake, I'm here and praying for you!!!  

*HUGS*
:-*mel

Blake, whip up a mean ole batch of romp 'em, stomp 'em whoopass to deliver to the beast!  We are right here to add support to that whoopass formula!

Jackie, m'luv, how did your phone calls go today?  Did you get the results you needed?  Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

Chuck

Glad to hear you've gotten a handle on the thing again, Blake.  

It's the pits when a little travel plays hell with the thing.  Hope you got some enjoyment out of the trip.

All the best,

George

Prayers are on your way, Blake! [smiley=hug.gif]

PF wishes,
Sanna

I'm pullin' for ya Blakester.  Listen to that Jackie girl, yer dancin' with a star, she's out to get you bouncing on the waves of good vibes again.  Stay in routine step with her, we'll do some fiddlin'.  

Been out of step myself, Blake.  Too much good around here to let it happen long.  And... you cracked me up too much in Nashville to just let this slide through fingers.  I'm rowin' behind you.
