Well Wishes And Thoughts Of Love And Encouragement For Jim And Cheryl Garin

[TekDiveGirl]

As some of you know Jim Garin - Puffer Fish - has suffered multiple strokes and has been in the hospital for about 2 weeks now. I am just heartbroken about what he and Cheryl are going through.They both need our love and encouragement to get through this difficult time.

After my accident the love and support that I received from my ScubaBoard family was absolutely amazing and I know how much it helped me to keep my spirits up and get through a very trying a time. As much as I enjoyed reading all of the fabulous messages, I also know just how overwhelmed my healing brain would get trying to focus, read and scroll through all of the messages. Oftentimes I would get frustrated and give up and do something that takes less brain power (like watching reruns of "Threes Company" on the television. (-:

Jim has enough on his plate to to deal with so I don't want him to have the experience this,

If you all would post your thoughts here or privately to me - I will then compile them all and create something that isn't so overwhelming.

Speaking from experience I would ask that you don't send them private messages asking happened, are you ok etc...I know when I would get so many PM's and then I would attempt to read/answer them my tender brain would get overwhrlmede and just shut down. I know there will come a time in the future that he will be able to read the forums and not get overwhelmed but that time is not now.

Thank you,
