Hopefully Jayjay’s not the type to be offended that I just prayed for him – get well soon!

I always offer prayers for the recovery of someone I care about! So, offering prayers for **Jayjay** ’s’ recovery. You take care too, Mr. **Venus**. 🙂

I can’t say it any better, so I’ll just “+1” this.

Thank you everyone. **Jayjay** is doing as well as can be expected. As **Twickster** reported, the surgery went well, and he is in relatively good spirits. I even got him to do the “princess wave” on his way down to surgery. He is definitely in for a long road to recovery, with physical and occupational therapy, but he knows that this is not going to be easy, and is ready to face the challenge.

I’m so thrilled to hear that he’s doing well. Give him a hug for me and, again, you both hang in there.

He’s got a WoW Warrior right here, ready to fight and/or think good thoughts for him, as he ( **Wolkie** ), doesn’t seem to be able to do much else without his _jaejae_.

Please give him a big hug (or as big as he can stand) from me and **D** , and y’all love each other bunches!

Get home soon!
