Hi Richard Try to keep your spirits up. "Rebecca Ann, Thank you for your wishes of Rainbows. Question, does that mean the Trout Variety?" I wish you Heaven's rainbows. The good Lord created the rainbow trout and if these bring you joy than may you have many. Heaven's rainbows are wherever you can find them. Jean-Thomas is our little angel. He sends us rainbows most everyday. But the best are those that come on dark days. Rainbows may come in many forms. It may be a light through your window, a boquet of flowers or a rainbow trout. The rainbows I wish for you are the things that bring joy and hope into your life. They are Heaven's beauties that help to lift your spirits. Maybe someday we can meet and you will take me fishing. I can't fly fish but I have a nice bamboo pole. It is simple but catches plenty of good fish for supper over on open fire on a warm summer night. RebeccaAnn
Richard! Please know that you have been in my thoughts and prayers as well. I hate to hear about your driving privileges. Hopefully that will change in time. You take care and I give hugs to both you and your wife. Take care!
This is just an update for all of you who are pulling for Richard. I had a long phone call with him yesterday night. He is doing quite well. Still there are good days and bad days but he is taking new meds now that help a bit. Not every day but all in all it's better than without them. He is still waiting for a transplant and he still needs a lot of rest. But we had a nice talk, chatting, laughing, joking, him pulling my leg again; oh, he was a real "Sir Ornery" again!
His modem broke so right now he has no possiblity to be online. But I will pass all wished and greetings to him next time I'll be phoning him.
So please, don't quit upholding him in thoughts and prayers. Thank you for being there.

Gaberlunzie, Thank-you for the update on Richard. Please tell him that our thoughts and prayers are with him everyday.

"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
It's a comfort to hear he's making progress. Thanks Gab. The rivers are waiting, Richard. It's a good thing they're patient.

I have never yet spoken a word of English to any of my children. They can speak as much English as they like to others, but when they talk to me they have to talk in Gaelic."

I know I'm also speaking for Elspeth if I'm thanking you from the bottom of my heart. It means a lot to have friends pulling for Richard who more than deserves it.
I will pass along all your greetings and well-wishes; as long as he hasn't been able to replace his modem I'll print them and send them over to him. I know it means very much to him.
So thank you all, Val, Mark, Rindy, Anthony, Allen and Adam; stay safe and healthy, may you always walk in peace.
could you please send "sir ornery" my love and let him know that the pickerel are biting back home and i'm sure there is another red devil in my tacklebox! vik

Thanks to everyone who has said a prayer for Richard! He has started some new medication that helps his liver work. He will continue to stay on the liver transplant list for the time being. He has had to give up his driving license cause his body becomes immoveable suddenly and can't react to driving conditions so his fishing has become less and less. He is doing really well and his spirits are high. He is staying positive and that is half of the battle!
Thanks for everyone's kind support of Richard and keep it up!
Thanks Annabelle and Gabby for the update on Richard. I was thinking about him the other day and wondering how he was. Please give him my regards and best wishes. Let him know he continues to be in my prayers.
