    Luckily for her! There is one branch of DB striking-sadly the one she needs to take. Will get her home today, one way or another.********************************** I am not young enough to know everything. Oscar Wilde

    Yeah, that's an idea but I think the Paypal scheme would be better; it's free and really simple to open an account. Or alternatively, as lamagonzo mentioned; maybe check with johnman if there's a forwarding address and then send cheques/money. Makes it a bit harder for the European folks but opening a bank account seems like more hassle. A Paypal account takes seconds. Also easier to access it or change payment etc. johnman then can transfer the money from Paypal to his bank account in seconds. Of course, johnman would need to have a Paypal account too but i'm sure that wouldn't be a problem for him. Hope your daughter is okay! Or has she made that up so she can stay out and party?!!

    to receive checks, donations, etc? I will if no-one else will, but I think that it's better if it's someone in the States. Someone who is trustworthy, of course! I guess the next thing I can try is setting up an online bank-account. That could receive donations, and that Johnman also has access to. Sorry for my delay-have gotten into a bit of a dilemma with my daughter being stuck away from home due to a train strike ********************************** I am not young enough to know everything.

    whatever you have been doing seems to be working because he is making a so far remarkable recovery from an aneurism. Apparently he is he's up & eating talking & walking. Many of you may know of John from his many circulating audience recordings of the Grateful Dead and other bands. This info comes from the Eurotraders list where John has many friends.

    OK then Johnman, just answer one question: your addy!
    You don't need a pay-pal account. You can do it "card not present" through an app that sets up through your I-phone. The app. piggy-backs on another, larger merchant. We have to find somebody that we trust for CC#s to go through. Big responsibility, that one. Alternatively, there is the old-fashioned way, which I am more inclined to do. Does Johnman have a forwarding address that we can snail mail contributions to? Are you willing to give it in this thread?

    Hurricane Irene
    Lots of bad stuff in the world gets lots of attention (or not when it should). But right now in the NE US, lots of folks are still suffering from the effects of Irene, mostly flooding. A number of people lost their lives so please send blessings for their souls. There are many more who have lost all their personal belongings, especially their homes. While "things" can always be replaced, the upset to life for these people, many of them my friends, including many family farmers who have lost their crops and their livestock, has been terrible. Please send your vibes, prayers and thoughts to those sisters and brothers in need in Upstate New York, Vermont, etc as they try to rebuild their lives. If you can spare a little extra then please donate to your favorite charity that can provide assistance to folks up here. Thanks all!

I just wanted to let you know that we are home from the hospital. Everything went well--the doctor is extremely positive. PK has been asleep for a while now, which is good. I thought I'd take this time to thank all of you--and we could definitely feel you there with us!! Thank you for being here! Julee **************************************

Grate to hear that, and positive healing vibes to you both!Good news from my dad and sister, my mom made it through the surgery and is awake and resting. The surgeon didn't have to much to say about the prognosis, but did say it was a very large tumor and a very difficult surgery. I think he will have more to say tomorrow when he can talk to my mom and dad together. I'm taking a 1/2 day tomorrow so I can go see her. I will keep you posted. Thanks Everyone!!!!!! Peace

Went to visit my mom today, she's in alot of pain but is resting well!!!! I happened to be with my mom when her chief surgeon came in to see her. He feels very good about the surgery and thinks he got all the tumor, but said we'll see in about a week or so when they recheck her!!!! He talked about getting a better grip on her pain and if they could do that they might make her sit up in a chair for a little while tonight!!!! He also said they will be moving her out of icu tomorrow and moving her to the step down unit!!!! A huge weight has been lifted!!!Thanks Everyone Peace

and thanks for all of your kind thoughts and expressions with my Uncle Bus's passing. Unfortunately his wife, my wonderful Aunt who stood with him these last 6 + decades, recently had surgery (she had delayed this because of Bus' dying) and then she had a stroke that night..... anyway she is still struggling so with her grief, and now with her loss of words or avenue to express herself. It is so hard for her and I hope that she can recover to live her days well, or if it be her time, that she could "go gently into that good night". If I might tap into this wonderful well of vibes again, please send her your beams of wellness or of finality. Whichever it will be....take care............ The Truth is realized in an instant, the act is practiced step by step.

Hi all~please say prayers for my brother, Elliot - who will be going into the National Guard for his boot camp training next week. He had wanted to join the Marines about 10 years ago, and my dear mama and I talked him out of it...well, he's not a kid anymore, and he has the right to do as he chooses - so as much as I respect his decisions - and as grateful as I am for his motives for joining - I can't say that I am happy to see him go, and much less - to see him deploy for a possible overseas tour next year, which seems to be what he wants... Although I can't understand how he would want to do this - at least, not completely, I love and respect him dearly and I just want him to be safe and come home safely... Prayers and blessings please, as he is a very strong but sensitive soul and it's just so scary what's happening around the world... Thank you very much!

it can be as hard to have a warrior in the family as it is to be one.....you want to keep them safe and still respect their decision......all you can really do is love them, support them as much as you can...and pray for their safe return......we have alot of young souls in harms way AGAIN.....and this is all we can really do for them....i'll help with the prayers as much as i can....just remember...right or wrong...they still need your love and respect...it's a tough decision that is sometimes made without forethought.............

peace/love Michael I like many people know how the death of a pet is as real as any death of someone you love and are close too. I remember summer tour of '93 my pomeranian "Miss muffit" the little grateful dead bear died with me on tour. I remember having her remains cremated, and smuggling her ashes into the Buffalo, NY show just as I made it into the show, the band was doing the refrain: "Ashes to Ashes,all fall down!!!!! and right then and there I scattered the ashes, I always treasure this act, man how I would love to go out like that!!!!

as we've been away, I haven't checked in here for a long while, so first, I'd like to extend sincere condolences to Oroboros and ++++++++ vibes to everyone else and to all. gotta do a u-turn. just when i thought we was on the way back, a 'family' member of ours needs help so that is what is the priority now. please send positive vibes for a wonderful lady we love and cherish, kidney failure creeping in on the one kidney she has that still works a bit. diabetis and a big stone complicate things, not to mention the fact she lost most of her insides to cancer 15 years ago. tough woman in spirit and the KINDEST person you might ever meet. she beat the cancer, has 2 colostomy bags as a result, one for pee and one for poop... the poop is backing up in poisen, creatinine levels way too high; lcuky foor her, my old lady is a quick study on nutrition and how to cook an extremely complicated diet to reduce her protein levels and whatever other stuff that I don't rightly understand. She was in hospital for a few weeks, home now with people who love her and more HELP is ON THE WAY. she is the one who taught my old lady her own philosophy of life and I am still learning them lessons myself: 'go with the flow of the river, just keep your head above water' she needs our help more than we need the tour, so thatis where it's at right now. what another month may bring? hopefully better health and more strength. her heart isn't strong enough to start dialysis now. dialysis will be on the agenda as time goes by. +++++++++ vibes for all!! love and peace. cc
