Happy Birthday Jonathan! 01/29
« on: January 27, 2007, 03:31:14 pm »
Hi gang.

Our Jonathan (jkinatl2) will turn 41 on Monday.  I miss him so much here in the forums, but I do read his blog entries.  I hope he checks in to read this birthday greeting.

My dear Jonathan,

I know you are struggling with your health issues right now, and I feel your pain.
I wish I could do something to make it easier for you.  You are such a sweet and gentle soul, and please know that you are cared about and loved very much and that you are in my prayers every night.

Much love,
Alan

PS - I hope you received the birthday card I mailed to you!

Jonathan,

I miss seeing you in the forums.  You were one of my most memorable "highlights" at the Montreal AMG.  Your blog has put such honesty on the experience of others who suffer from HIV but lack your eloquence.  I hope that this new year will usher in some real recovery for you.  Ever since I met you and became more aware of your struggles, I have made it my practice to think of you and pray for you each day. 

May this next  year bring  you you and improved health!

Dear Jonathan,

All best wishes for a Happy Birthday and your recovery from your current health problems.  I've said it before, and I'll say it again:  I spent over 30 years in book publishing, and your writing is some of the best that ever crossed my desk in all that time.
