Dear Dee

Some of us West Coast folks get up late, but I have finally arrived at your party. Happy Deedles Day, and my wish is for good days ahead for you soon.

Love, Pokey thumbsup

Wow, I checked in at a time I thought was early, and I'm already number 53! Shows how many people are thinking of you, Dee, and wishing you well. You are probably having a hard day today, but our hope is that all this love being beamed your way will help cheer you up. When bad things happen, we can find ourselves thinking the world is a bad place, where things go crazy. It helps to know that good friends never let you down.

Speaking of the world being a crazy place, maybe a little laughter will help. A friend recently send me this email, which had me laughing all afternoon:

"You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named 'Bush', 'Dick', and 'Colon.' Need I say more?"

-- Chris Rock


I'm sending good messages of love and support your way, sweetie. Hang in there, keep fighting, and come back to us soon.

Love,
Reenie

My dearest Dee,

You know I like to solve games now and then. The harder the problems, the more I like to solve them.
I wish I knew how to solve your problems as well. But I simply can't...
The only thing I can do for you is thinking about you and saying some prayers for you. And be sure that I'll do that for you!

I wish you strength and all the best Dee... and don't forget that the whole Boomers Gang is with you in your difficult day!!!

Love,

Bert Jamin

If REENIE was Number 53 in checking in, I guess it is appropriate that I be Number 55. I'm always late at the uptake, but I hope that all the messages from your GameBoomer friends have given you a special lift. As a pre-GameBoomer friend, you know how I feel about you and now you see how many friends, admirers, and well-wishers you have, and they are but a cross-section of a much larger population who feel the same way, but have not been able to express it in this thread. thumbsup

Dee:

Jack has wonderfully expressed all of our feelings for you. We hope that all the butterflies will surround you and lift your spirits high. Our thoughts and prayers are always with you.

...and we'll bring lots of fresh caught salmon and Seattle's own Starbuck's coffee to the party.

Love,

Stacey, Jerry and Jamie

This is just incredible how many of you showed up to the party. This is my first surprise party you know. And the food......I don't know what to eat next. <img border="0" alt="[winky]" title="" src="graemlins/winky.gif" /> And....a floor show too!!!

I was dreading going to radiation on Monday because it's cumulative but all these lovely posts have given me a renewed batch of courage. Thank you!!!

Bob......My poor Dad feels so helpless, I can just imageine what you have gone through. I've been on the other side of the coin too.

Namma....I can't believe you brought the mouse....hahahaha

BTW......Syd is in Reno, but I know she will be sad she missed a Boomer party! wink I have always known the Boomers were the BEST!

Hi Dee!

I've already made the journey through Hell so let me carry you on my shoulders for a while to make your journey easier!

Hang in there, look ahead and not back and remember the radiation therapy only kills cells and not your spirit!

Dear Dee,
Wishing you the very best! You have my thoughts and prayers. Let me just say I am a 5 year breast cancer survivor this year and I'm feeling great. I know every case is different, but I wish the best outcome for you!
Love to you,
Andrea

Hi Dee, I hope you are enjoying your party. This morning I was working in the garden, but it was still too cool for any butterflies there. So I dropped in here to get my butterfly fix. I will never look at another butterfy without thinking of you. Get well soon. bravo <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" />

Hi Dee,

I'm glad to see that the party is cheering you up. I can't match poetical posts like Jack's, or posts from people like Randy who have been through it and licked it. But, like everyone else here at Gameboomers, I'm in here rooting for you. Happy Deedles Day.

Well, I'm "fashionably late" but I would not have missed it for anything! AND, these gourmet foods have absolutely NO calories so eat as much as you want Dee! Enjoy your day, we're all thinking of you.

Am I the last? I am so sorry, I did send a card to try and make you feel better.

We need you so much!

My thoughts are with you and I brought a lovely Spanish omelet made with egg, potato and onion, nice eaten hot or cold with a nice red wine.

Love
Carmen

Hi Dee!
Wow! Neat party! And I think even Mother Nature must be celebrating "Deedles Day"....the sun is shining here in Arlington today--a rarity this time of year.

Just wanted you to know I'm pulling for you...hang in there. You are the butterfly lady and I guess you know that things are not always under our control...sometimes we are like "butterflies in the wind"...from now on I wish for you only gentle breezes that carry you to happy places like this wonderful party!!
Love, Cynch <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" />

Hi Dee,

What a great party!

Must admit I snuck off and had a couple of hours sleep ... but I'm back now ... nearly 6 am here ... sadly Shona and I have to go to the Market now but I suspect the board will be still jumping when I return.

But for the moment if those chickens and ducks will just be quiet for a moment I have a little humourous tale to tell:

There was this fellow who worked for Australia Post whose job it was to process all mail that had illegible addresses.

One day a letter came to his desk, addressed in a shaky handwriting to God. He thought, "Oh boy, better open this one and see what it's all about." So he opened it and read:

"Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had 100 dollars in it which was all the money I had until my next pension check. Next Sunday is Easter, and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with. I have no family to turn to, and you are my only hope. Can you please help me?"

The postal worker was touched, and went around showing the letter to all the others. Each of them dug into his wallet and came up with a few dollars. By the time he made the rounds, he had collected 96 dollars, which they put into an envelope and sent over to her. The rest of the day, all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of the nice thing they had done.

Easter came and went, and a few days later came another letter from the old lady to God. All the workers gathered around while the letter was opened. It read:

"Dear God, How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me? Because of your generosity, I was able to fix a lovely dinner for my friends. We had a very nice day, and I told my friends of your wonderful gift. By the way, there was 4 dollars missing. I think it must have been those thieving jerks at Australia Post."

Much love ... Peter and Shona
