Thank You! Between Walter Reed , The MayoClinic and Johns Hopkins they have determined there is nothing to stop the spread of the infection. Both lungs are effected and now the heart muscle is starting. Heidi will at some point take over writing for me in the forum. We dated many years ago during HS, we both never married. It is my desire that we do marry, I want her to have my veterans benefits. Know this, I did not quit! I'm fighting to the end. But I'm more at peace than you'll ever imagine. The pain is so bad I won't wish it on my enemy. It's been a blast. I'll try to make it to level 22, if I don't l at least tried.

Fly hard and mean , I'm proud to be a MOM. No hugs , no worries, I'm not in the least upset. I lived my life and loved everything about it.

I'm going to try to rest. I still have to hide this iPad from the nurses. Fly safe!

The Duck

B - we will try to talk as soon as I can. Now is not the time.

your a great man Jon.

Jon, I regret that I do not know you personally because it is clear that you are a truely remarkable man. I can't begin to imagine all you have been through and all that you are enduring now. I do want to make sure that you always know just how highly regarded you are by me and everyone else here. You are constanty in our thoughts and prayers. You are in that very special group of people that I have looked up to my whole life.
Steve

Slight relief from the pain today, I spent a little time flying. If you say hello in the dog fight and I reply with 3 it means the same back at ya. Sometimes I can hold the stylus in my mouth and sometimes I can't. I tried the nose but that was gross Most of my communication is in writing as speaking is possible but understanding more than a simple one word answer isn't. If I can pass onething one to you guys, please remember this " no matter how bad you have it , someone else has it worse". The Drs have been great " and completely honest ". I admire the nurses ,well all but one . I will try to play when I'm up to it.

B - when they take the tubes out I will call. Please don't be alarmed when you hear what my voice sounds like.

You guys better continue trying to shoot me down, because I will shoot you

Thank you both for your kind words; and, while I’m of the honorable ilk and generally nice person; my sarcasm, humor, points of view tend to get documented in some fashion, from time to time. That’s why, most of the time, I just shut my mouth and listen or read to what everyone is saying. And, Wig, if I did not know you any better, I may have taken umbrage to your comments. However, my rebuttal to your somewhat psychotic tirade (which reminded me of something that Robert De Niro’s character may have said in move Cape Fear - 1991), was merely to fuel the “cuteness” debate. To this end, I must say that getting beat to death with a Hello Kitty slipper is probably one of the last ways that I want to go (which includes, falling, burning, drowning, buried alive or beaten to death by a chimpanzee [not wearing Hello Kitty Slippers – although thinking about this more; it would just be an incredibly disturbing way to go]) but, unfortunately, getting back to the original Hello Kitty slipper beating, screams of cuteness. I’m not even sure a lead filled, spiked, poisonous Hello Kitty slipper could not escape the horrible grasp of cute. Notwithstanding, I know you are a good guy and great player and tip my hat. I also wish that game would not have ended so soon the other night. Oh well.

So, hopefully, no offense taken to my attempt (perhaps a poor attempt) to a good natured banter with the M.O.M. squadron.

Sincerely,

Black Flag.

MOM's on other team? Shoot 'em! With love!
Why play otherwise? You need to think of your team not my feelings. Besides, how do we get better when we play favorites?
The only person that cares is DENT.....IT SCARES THE PEE OUT OF HIM WHEN YOU SHOOT! Just don't get too close behind him...SPUT has to clean the planes.

Speaking of that: who left a candy wrapper in my plane? We need better hanger security!
SPUT! GET ON IT! NO ONE TOUCHES MY PLANE......unless they leave me a Snickers!

I tried to play this evening. I'm just not able to respond fast enough or the other pilots are getting better. B when are you flying?

If you're going to fly with Brian, send me a PM. I'd like to play with you.
