Good morning! I'm sitting with my dad & he's holding my hand tight! Getting a lot of rest! He swallowed for my mom earlier this morning. I know he's going to pass his test with flying colors! We're listening to some oldies music and just hanging out! He gets more responsive everyday... He is nodding yes & no when we ask questions. Dad likes looking out the window. I told him a story about Maggie and our dog when I got here he smiled big. I'll update y'all with the swallow test soon! We love everyone & all the comments :)

    Bird, I want u to know I have been thinking of u every minute of every day. Also, I have called in a few favors with the Big Guy up above. He owes me from a couple of things a long time ago. Listen, you have always been my wingman (aka bird) so I'm telling you, I GOT YOUR BACK on this one! I haven't prayed this much since JimmyJoe Ackerman passed out right before his first confession. You know I love ya man and I will see you very very soon! I'm bringing Dipper cheeseburgers and chocolate milk shakes.......Clembo

Brooke, please let your mom know that I will be there before Christmas to check on her and John and your family. (I would come down this weekend, but we have plane tickets to fly out all of the Thanksgiving break...). Much love to you all...and let me know which hospital he is at.

  3. The Blisses' are thinking about you John and your family. Samantha asks about you every day. You are such a strong and courageous individual that I know this is just a stumbling block for you. If you guys need anything please don't hesitate.

    Your Captain Your Captain and family are sending many prayers to the big guy. Great to hear how wonderful you are progressing. Can't wait to get the green light to come and visit. The hospital isn't going to know what hit them. You will work them harder than they have ever been worked. We have more money on the table to take from Clark and El Clembo. Love you and will see you soon. Hugs and kisses from Debbie, Darcy and the boys want you in the toy room.
