  1. John and Karen,

    Words cannot express the love this community has for the 2 of you and your family. The entire Archibald family (all 6 children and the spouses of the 4 married ones) send their love and prayers. Ben and his wife from Calgary, AB has asked about you daily; we have sent him the link to your blog. You have been hugging Jenna and Brenna since they were toddlers....they are so worried about you.

    We know that faith and prayers are at work in our daily lives; we invoke a loving Heavenly Father to hold you in his hands and sustain you at this difficult time.

    All our love,

    Lynn and Joell Archibald (and Sasha/Gabe, Ben/Jodi, Josh/Melissa, Skyler/Chelsea, Jenna, Brenna)

  2. The spaghetti feed last night was awesome. I kept thinking about how much John would have enjoyed to be there with a whole room of friends and more in line!

    I hope you post the results soon!!

  4. I went to the spaghetti feed Friday and talk about someone who is loved and supported by their community. The amount of people who showed up just says what a great person John is and how many people care for his and his families well being. I am grateful to be part of such a compassionate community who is willing to step up and take care of one of its own. We're all rooting for ya John, come home soon.

  5. John, was sitting in front of my computer saying another prayer for you and your family and thought I should let you know that I am sending your positive thoughts and more important positive vibes for you to get the hell out of that hospital bed and come home soon. Seaside is just flat out too quiet without our voice of the sound waves bringing us news.

    Much love to you as well as to Karen and the kids,

  8. Tonight is Kick off for Relay For Life and it will be a quiet one without your enthusiam/passion and of course picking on me the way you do!

    Sending lots of prayers of positive healing your way....strength for Karen and the kids and lots of patience...I know that is not one of your strong suits...you want it done now! Everything the Docs and Nurses are doing help in getting you back to being "John" again...you will find out how strong you really are from within. One day at a time you are gaining strength, may that inner strength kick in and kick ass! There is so much positive energy coming from our little community to you in ICU, know it and feel it, that strength will guide you through and back to us once again. I know, I am also a miracle of our strong community, you can do this John I have faith in you!!!!!

    God bless you all always in all ways, Chapman family!!
