Unfortunately, there was a medical emergency in my family. To those of you who knew what was going on and e-mailed your prayers, JoanMarie and I both thank you tremendously. Things are looking good.
JoanMarie also wants to share with you a couple of her favorite hospital gifts.
JoanMarie, Johnny Depp (both of them), and I are back home now. For the next several weeks, while JoanMarie reads her magazines and relaxes, I'll be cooking and cleaning and watering plants and running errands...and there's nothing I would rather be doing.
And hopefully I can see anyone I missed in Philadelphia real soon!
I wish you well, and a speedy and full recovery for JoanMarie.
ReplyDeleteWell Jay, I was sorry to have missed you but I am glad things seem to be ok.I was signing next to your empty table and felt for you. I've run into several 2k7ers and we all hope to see you soon.
ReplyDeleteGlad she's doing okay Jay! (:
ReplyDeleteI'm glad everything is ok and I hope for a speedy recovery for JoanMarie!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that JoanMarie's recovering well!
ReplyDeleteYikes, I'd heard you had a rough weekend. Sorry to hear about JoanMarie; lots of bed rest with Johnny Depp should make her feel much better! :) I'll see you again next time your over on this side of the country.

Thank you, everyone!
ReplyDeleteHeather, one of the most frustrating things about this for JoanMarie has been laughing. Laughing hurts...but it also makes things better. And your message made her laugh! So it hurt, but she also thanks you for that.
G-Man, I was really looking forward to seeing so many 2k7ers in one spot, and meeting some of them for the first time. But I'm sure there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
Again, thank you all for your positive thoughts!
Sorry to hear about your family emergency. JoanMarie looks in high spirits! Glad everything worked out and she gets to go home!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to see JoanMarie. Tell her to keep a small firm pillow at hand to press against the stitches when she laughs. It will help, a little.
ReplyDeleteWishing you both a joyful Thanksgiving!!!
Best to JM!!! and Johnny. lol
ReplyDeleteThe comment about laughing reminds me of when I was a wee lass of 10 and had an emergency appendectomy.... My mother decided I needed a TV in my room (yes, had to rent them in them days!) and that very day was the premiere of Rocky & Bullwinkle!!! A pillow helped a little.

Happy to hear things are looking up.
ReplyDeleteYikes. Hospitals are no fun.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to you and yours.
