But at least there's a shred of hope to cling to for the time being, I'll take it and be grateful for it.

Here's how you can help:

I need food ideas: After his heart issues earlier this year, he is on a heart healthy diet. Low fat and low sodium. This is a bit out of my wheelhouse so if anyone has suggestions for food or meals, please post them here. Please keep meal suggestions simple, we're willing to spend some time preparing things but we can't spend 4 hours making a heart healthy version of Duck a l'orange.

You can donate: If you want to kick in some money to help cover grocery costs I certainly will welcome that. PM me for details. For transparency's sake I will post a list of donors in this thread, but you can remain anonymous if you wish. I will also provide photos of what I buy plus receipts so there's no questions about where your money went.

I do have a couple other ideas I am pursuing as well, just need to figure out if there's a way to bring them to fruition. More on that later.

No, he didn't.

Kathy's been on my mind all day. Sending prayers to her and Joe, 2 of the most real people you could ever hope to meet.

Oh Thank the Lord!

Now let's get Kathy well again! I know first hand covid can be a pest to get rid of, saw it up close for 2 weeks.

Prayers for Kathy everybody!:-)

This.

Prayers sent. I will light a candle for them both at Mass this morning as well.

Really hoping she can win that fight. The NZoner bashes that they hosted always seemed like the best time. Any wife cool enough to allow a bunch of internet strangers into their home for a weekend of fun and debauchery doesn’t deserve this kind of pain and suffering. Sending best wishes for a full recovery and for some peace and comfort to find the entire NZoner family soon. It’s been a rough stretch for them all. It never makes any sense when it happens to the good ones.

They'll never ask, but is there anything that they need right now besides prayer?

Thanksgiving is coming up. We could set up a fund to hire someone to come in and prepare a meal for them or get their Christmas decorations up. Someone to come in and clean and prepare heat and serve meals a few times per week? Or we could just give them money for whatever they need right now.

Joe's sister came up from Louisiana and is holding down the fort for them at the homefront. As far as anything else...I just don't know. We've actually had them up here for the past two Thanksgivings, pretty sure that's not going to happen but I know Joe loves the leftovers so maybe we'll take some of ours down for him.


Funny that you mention Christmas decorations...have you ever seen what she does to the place for Christmas...I don't think you could hire someone to replicate it. :-)

Still, if there's a fund or something we could give to in order to help them out this Christmas or whatever, I'd be down.
