Doug Kreuger —Temporary Administrator while Randy is recovering
PLEASE, take some time to thank any member of our group for any reason, whether they comment on one of your works, or praised your skills, etc.
This also is the place for appreciation to administrator for FEATURES, if and when you wish to use it.
All thank you notes should go here, NOT AS A SEPARATE POST! ALWAYS, scroll to bottom when empty box shows, and that is where you comment or thank you.
NEVER GO TO POST NEW THREAD!!!!!!!!
That throws a big wrench into our machinery! Thank you, thank you very much!
Forever, Elvis

Doug---thank you for choosing "I FOUND SPRING' as the LOGO for the 'in-house' contest for squirrels. I love our 'in-house contests'--they are fun and relaxing. Thank you for your work--and thanks to all our WFS friends for all they have been doing for Randy and Carolyn. So very much appreciated.

Nothing new to report yet. Randy is having dialysis today. He is still getting cards every day, and that is always a bright spot in his day. Thank you for everything!
(Dear WFS friends---the message above--is from Carolyn today---as you can see, your cards and notes are the BRIGHT SPOT of the day--and in his heart---and for Carolyn too! Thank you---do not give up!)

Randy and I want to thank each and every one of you for your support, prayers, kind words, and thoughtfulness. A special thank you to Nava Jo and to Doug for all of his work on the WFS site. It has been 5 weeks now, since Randy was first hospitalized, and he is doing as well as can be expected. He is still waiting for his liver transplant, which hopefully will be within the next two weeks, and he is still getting dialysis on a frequent basis. He is too sick to leave the Madison hospital, where he has been for the past three weeks, so any cards sent to him certainly brighten his day. Again, thank you, to all you wonderful caring people!

Thank you Doug and Nava Jo and the others who have taken over in Randy's time of need. You are all true friends and team players. That is hard to find these days. I really enjoy this group so I am very appreciative of your caring for us and our work. Keep up the good work until Randy is able to come back, by then you will need along deserved rest.
Nava Jo, I think this is just beautifully done.
Doug, this is one of my favorites of your works.

It's hard to imagine what would have happened to this group if Doug, Nava Jo, John and Deb (hope I haven't forgotten anybody) hadn't stepped in to keep it going. Thanks for keeping us up to date on Randy, too. 'A simple thanks for all you do doesn't seem enough..... You are so much appreciated!!

About 3pm today, Randy got moved from the ICU to the transplant floor..... a 'regular room'! He looks SO much better today. His new liver and kidney are doing great! He should be ready to go home in less than 2 weeks! UW Madison is an amazing place!
His new room # is B4/646. Thank you for the new card you sent, and for all of your prayers!
(WFS friends----the note above just came in from Carolyn-----this is AMAZING! Thank you for all your prayers and cards.) (ps---note the new room number if you want to send a card :) )
