My friend Joz needs your love and support.

Day before yesterday at Bloggercon two “blogosphere” stories were told by two people I consider friends. The stories were personal and both were about the death in each of their immediate families. These two friends are, of course, bloggers. They told of how they turned to their writing to help them cope through such difficult times in life.  

I guess that has made me think doubly about why I read these friends blog posts but didn't write about it in my own. I've decided to write about my friend Joz's ordeal at her request.

Here's what has happened…

Today my friend Joz sent me an email asking for support, prayers and/or good thoughts as she and her family deal with a stroke her father has suffered. Joz is a wonderful friend. I am sad to hear she's going through such a rough time. Since I am far away I will extend my love and friendship across to her through the blogosphere – I hope you will too.

Joz – know that you are loved and supported. No matter what comes next you have lots of friends and family to help you get through good or bad. We will hope for all the best friend.

The link to her post didn't work but all I had to do was delete one of the “http://” parts and it went through. I'll keep your friend and her family in my thoughts and prayers.

Ponzi, Chris,
Thank you both for your love and friendship. It means the world and I am grateful for this post. It made me feel warm to know that you both care and are wishing for the best.
Love,
Joz

That is such a bummer! I don't know Joz, but feel as if I do through your blog, Ponzi. I will pray that her dad recovers soon. Best wishes,
Jules

I’ve needed some time to decompress from Gnomedex 6.0, but just like the previous conferences from the past two years, it was a ton of fun, inspiring, and over way too soon. It’s a particularly great event for me because……
