There are some other bakeries in NYC that do that kind of thing. You should see the place that made his wedding cake!

Thank you to everyone for your support and for your kind words!  smile  I appreciate all of you so much!  I wish that there was not so much negativity out there!  The last thing that I wanted was to have my positive comment reacted to my negative comments, which is unfortunately what happened.  I have learned the hard way that it is not wise to post there.  Thanks again! smile

How do we do this? Does everyone give the same amount, or do we give what we want?

Charm City Cakes where Ace of Cakes is filmed, is out. They're booked until December 31st. Too bad, I bet they would have made an awesome cake!

 



That would have been a great idea!  I could've have ridden with Duff to help deliver it!

Won't Derek be jealous if I "buy" a cake for Jose?

Sounds like a great plan! Let us know how much Eris when you figure it out!

Can I very, very, very nicely ask that we take the Ashley comments and complaining about BWW be taken to another thread or PM so we can get back to discussing stalk....I mean helping Jose? Please, please?

Should I add another "very"?

I think it would be best if a new thread was made for collecting money for Jose...so that everyone could see the title of it! Just my opinion!

That makes sense.  In a topic, that says something like "The Jose Project."  So people can look and help if they'd like.  smile

While all of this is lovely and kind, I will make Jose a cake (or buy one) and say it's from all of you. I can have Greased Lightening silk screened on it. Others have been injured and no one made a big fuss, so let's not make him feel singled out, even for something as special as this.

Cards are wonderful and greatly appreciated.

Okay, let's back up here for a moment.

I was actually joking about us buying him a cake. It wouldn't be fair if he got one. Daniel didn't get one when he tore his ACL, Natalie didn't get one when she left for her own health problems, and Derek didn't get one when that mean Ashley broke his nose (kidding lol).

You forgot about Derek and Ace's broken fingers! Maybe we could send the whole cast a cake and put a crutch on it!

 And Helene's broken toe!

Maybe we should just get a cake and I'll jump out of it.  Though I think only Derek would appreciate that.

Has anyone else other than me sent a card?





Hi, Eris and everyone! I have not been checking the boards as much as we used to. I started a new job and have been too busy. We are so saddened to hear about Jose's injury. As D&B knows, we are very big fans of Jose, especially a certain super someone. The kids will be happy to create cards and mail them to Jose. We wish him the speediest recovery possible and know he will stay in good spirits. He will be in our prayers.

He is uncomfortable, but waiting patiently to hear what day he is to go in for surgery. Your prayers are appreciated.

My husband had a torn maniscus (SP). Not sure if that is what Jose has or not. He should do well and will come back at 100%. My 50 year old husband was teaching a friend son's how to go over a hurdle...track coach. We he forgot he was 50....lol

He is fine now though...and doesn't try to act like a child anymore...

Jose is in my prayers too!

I should start writing the names down because I know so many ill people.  I know several people with cancer, my grandmother is having health issues and a newborn baby who has to have brain surgery.

Poor Ashley!  cry  I hope that it doesn't hurt a lot when she performs.  cry  I feel so bad for the cast--they give so much of their time, energy, and talent.  Wish it wasn't so dangerous.  I hope that they know how much their hard work and dedication is appreciated.  smile

Many people have a small tear of some sort. It is quite common. The rationale to have surgery comes from the size of the tear. I can tell you from personal experience, a sizable tear is very painful and needs correction so you can function.

And most small meniscal tears are not found until arthroscopic surgery is done for other reasons e.g. collateral or cruciate ligament tears.

Just hope Ashley is o.k. and that it doesn't bother her too much!  I hate to think of her or any other cast members being in pain as they perform.  cry

She tore her's in high school when she ran track. It kept her from high jumping because it was her take off leg but when the season was over and she wasn't putting undue stress on it the pain went away. The tear happened when she was running hurdles.

I have a tear in my anterior cruciate ligament that the orthopod shaved down in surgery. I make sure I exercise my knees and keep the muscles around the knee strong, and that seems to help.smile.gif

I guess that she's been dealing with it for awhile now.  Glad it's not too painful! You would never know she was dealing with that when you watch her perform!  smile  She's so talented!

I had such pain in my shoulder, I would cry, especially after being at work all day (telephone operator). The only drug that would have relieved the pain would have been a narcotic, which my doctor didn't want to prescribe. I tried physical therapy, which helped for about a half hour, then it would start hurting again.cry.gifso I went to see an orthopoedic surgeon, he said I would need surgery, when I was in enough pain, I would be back. I sceduled it that day. I still get chiropractic help and massage, but I am 100% better.smile.gif
