Guys, sorry for not providing any updates, it has not been good news and I was quite hoping for things to turn about.

I just got off the phone with Dianne (unrelated to this post)
Jack will not be with us much longer, time is short for the brother. They have to totally care for him now and he just opens his eyes once in awhile but he still recognizes Dianne and his boy Jake who has been helping.

I wish it was better news. I will let you all know when his race here is run out.

I appreciate the update Eddy, but sorry for the news. I am glad Jack can stay at home where he is loved.

Damn, this sucks, eddy. I've always really liked Jack. His stories are all amazing and funny and I'll never forget him. I wish I could have seen him one last time. My best wishes to Dianne and his family.

Just terrible, We met Jack and Dianne last july and I talked to him several times. I have a lot of respect for Him. My heart goes out to Him and Dianne and their family.

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.
