Shout out to our beloved H2OMan who is now at home recovering from a serious

[malaise]

fall and head injury which required hospitalization. WaterMan is still sore and tired, but is feeling a little better.
What a scare for him, his family, his community and this community in cyberspace. Get well soon brother - you are loved here.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. Thank you for letting us know, dear malaise! Please take care, dear H20 Man!

You are indeed loved here, and respected for your clear thinking and writing!

May you soon be entirely yourself.......

[JI7]

2. That could have turned out really bad

Glad he is ok and continues to recover.

[ChubbyStar]

3. Oh No! Get Better Patrick.

[JohnnyLib2]

[Tatiana]

15. Thanks for the heads up, malaise.

I had been wondering about him.

I hope he sees this message and knows he is appreciated and missed. I wish him a speedy recovery.

[Hoyt]

16. Take it slow, head injuries take time. Pulling for quick recovery, otherwise.

[redwitch]

17. Oh no!

Hope the healing goes quickly and you are 100% soon!

[erronis]

18. Since many of us are on various "edges", I wonder if there is a way to reach out?

I've loved getting H2OMan's and other messages. But I'm not very aware of when one of my favorites is not keeping up with the daily/weekly rhythm.

I know an automated "You have not posted in N days" would be totally inappropriate.

But sometimes some of us take a break because of bad vibes or because of personal issues. And sometimes these can be helped with a nice personal note from someone that has interacted and cared.

After writing all this, I realize we already have this community. Thank you.

[StevieM]

20. Best wishes, H2OMan. (eom)

[SergeStorms]

60. HEY DUDE!

I'm glad to hear you're recovering nicely, and that you're getting plenty of rest. As we get older we have to take things a little easier! You don't have Donald Trump's constitution, and you won't live to be 200 like him.

Take your time healing and get back here when you're able. There's too much dumb shit going on, and we need all the help we can get.

[3Hotdogs]

61. We wish you well. B.T.W., what was the outcome of the trial?

You are needed.

[eleny]

65. I was just wondering about him yesterday

But I always hesitate to ask out loud. Thanks so much for letting us know what happened. I wish there was a way to snail mail him. So this will be the way:

Take good care, H20Man! We miss you and hope you take it slow until you heal up.

And thanks to you, Malaise.

[ms liberty]

66. Oh no! Take care of yourself H20Man

when i was younger and i got a minor injury or dropped something and it broke my mom would say "what did you do that for?" (it was a distraction technique that often worked. my mom was funny that way. and in other ways too. )

hope you get back to "normal" real soon.

[raven mad]

147. Extreme healing, caring, happy-thoughts-making, and

many huggles, snuggles and kitty kisses good vibes for his boo-boos, inside and out. Severe injury affects us all in our souls and psyches - and I find from association with H2OMan that his soul and psyche are VERY strong (thank the goddess).

H2OMan, remember all the great DU vibes are coming at you 24/7. YOU, SIR, ARE VERY VERY LOVED!


And because we think so highly of you - prepare for a major healing aura coming right at you!
