Thank you so much for the information. Bill and I have been very worried that we hadn't heard back from her since we got home. JJ, we're wishing you a very speedy recovery! We've sent over flowers from Bill, myself and all her friends at RF Revolution. Sandra, I sent you an email to see if there is anything we can do to help here locally, either for JJ or the dogs.

Thanks!

Thanks everyone for all of the well wishes, cards, and flowers for JJ. My email box is full with love and concern for her. I will keep everyone posted as I receive more information.

I just got off the phone with JJ and she has given me permission for this update. She had emergency surgery on Monday night on her knee. They cleaned it out and she has MRSA which is a very serious staph infection that is resistant to antibiotics. She is on IV antibiotics and will be probably hospitalized for 6-8 weeks. As you can imagine her spirits are somewhat low with the fact of such a long hospitalization and of course the holidays coming up. I asked her if there was a care package we could put together for her and she said she likes to read Dick Francis novels and likes word scrambles. She is not into crossword puzzles, needlepoint and things like that. She also likes any kind of magazines.
I asked her if the hospital has a wireless connection as I can get her a laptop to use. So she will check on that.
Please let us keep her in our thoughts and prayers as she is pretty sick and of course very worried.
I will keep everyone updated as to her progress. Of course, if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me directly.

WOW Sandra. However, even in the worst news, I can hear JJ's humor. We must do what we can for her to keep her in good spirits.

Where is she? Send me a home e-mail. Is there anything people local to her can do to help her w/the dog group?

Any word when they will release her to go home? Sure hope she will be so before next Thursday.

If not, please holler as I can't fathom spending a Thanksgiving day in a hospital on IV's! I could arrange to have a home cooked meal taken to her if she has to, sure hope not though.

Anyways, Dega & I are sending you a package to add to the care package. During Dega's cancer/amputation journey...it was Team Mickey D that came through for us w/the most FANTASTIC fun loving and full of genuine care package to my door.

I would love to pay that forward to another special person.

Love me & Dega
