Many, many for Lee. I hope he will recover soon, as I'm sure Persi is missing him terribly.
Whenever Josh is in the hospital they dont allow live flowers/plants or latex balloons on the oncology floor let alone the ICU. However, the times he did spend in the ICU, he was allowed to have his favorite stuffed bear and action figure... But wasnt allowed any balloons (even mylar).

The card sounds like a wonderful idea too. I imagine it will mean a lot to him to know how many people are pulling for him!

Josh's children's hospital has a place on their website where they can deliver e-cards to the room. He always looks forward to the daily delivery of messages and pictures.

More vibes for Lee and his family! And thank you Carol for keeping us posted!

I think the card thing is also a good idea.
And please don't berate yourself, Carol, for posting about his condition. You were only trying to keep us all informed regarding his condition.


Have there been any updates? I've been thinking about Lee since reading this last night...

More get-well vibes are headed his way! Get well soon, Lee!

Lee underwent a surgical procedure to drain the fluid from his lungs today! From what they told me, it should improve his condition very quickly, so with any luck, he may be doing a lot better soon.


He had just been taken to surgery when I arrived to deliver the card I made from all of us, so I didn't get to see him... but I left it on the table in his room, and one of the aides promised to make sure he noticed it.

I've been trying to figure out a way to show you the card, but it's such a huge file that I can't post it anywhere! The "card" was in the form of a scroll about five feet long... a little rhyme and a list of all our names, with kittyfaces scattered among the verses.

Here below is the text, followed by a consolidated image showing the header and some of the kittyfaces all grouped together (these are additional kitties I made back when I did the Chat Noir for the gift icons).

To Our Friend Lee!

This message comes to you
Straight from TCS,
Where your friends have gathered
To make this request:
Please get well, and pronto!
Don't dilly or dally,
Because we all miss you
And Persi and Alley.

All over the world,
People worry about you --
Our pixels glow just a bit
Dimmer without you.
Your humor and wisdom
And love for your cats
Have touched all our hearts,
Wherever we're at.

You're so much a part
Of this virtual family!
We hope that you're healing
As fast as you can be.
Why, since you've been gone,
There's so much that we lack!
KatKwizzes and Kweries --
Oh, kwik, Lee, come back!

We hope this provided
A bit of diversion.
And now we will close
With some blatant coercion:
Heal up in a hurry
And come on back home,
Or we'll have to write you
Another bad poem!

With lots of love and get-well vibes from...

That's awesome, Carol!
that he'll soon be on the mend -- that card will put a smile on his face, I'm sure, and that can't hurt! Thanks for doing that.
And of course, keeping up the for Lee.

Oh Carol...that is a wonderful card! He will love it and I'm sure it will lift his spirits!
I'm glad they were able to drain that fluid and I hope he is now able to have a speedy recovery and go home to where he belongs. Thanks for the update!

Everyone should have a friend that cares as much as you do Carol.


I suspect that adorable card filled with loving thoughts will be just what Lee needs.
