Trains, Trains, Trains
Orange Blossom Special
Look a-yonder comin'
Comin' down that railroad track
Hey, look a-yonder comin'
Comin' down that railroad track
It's the Orange Blossom Special
Bringin' my baby back
Well, I'm going down to Florida
And get some sand in my shoes
Or maybe Californy
And get some sand in my shoes
I'll ride that Orange Blossom Special
And lose these New York blues
"Say man, when you going back to Florida?"
"When am I goin' back to Florida? I don't know, don't reckon I ever will."
"Ain't you worried about getting your nourishment in New York?"
"Well, I don't care if I do-die-do-die-do-die-do-die."
Hey talk about a-ramblin'
She's the fastest train on the line
Talk about a-travellin'
She's the fastest train on the line
It's that Orange Blossom Special
Rollin' down the seaboard line

Sorry I can't post a link to the thread but it's in my gallery if anyone is interested in seeing it. Much Aloha (love) tons of hugs and zillion prayers for lil Jack as well to you gma Ann and to the Ohana!!!
Blessings halls way!!
Update on Jack - he is home and feeling very good! His parents are having trouble keeping him from running around though!
The surgery went very well, and very quickly although it was an hour behind. My daughter-in-law said that was the tough part. Jack was hungry and thirsty and could not have anything and the extra time was pain staking!
He woke up without screaming and in a good mode! We are blessed, he has such a great disposition!
He is enjoying receiving mail! He was waving two cards when I saw him on face time this afternoon. Linda's Thomas the train card and someone's with red train tracks ( but I don't see it in the gallery)
Update for today - Jack is in lots of pain today! He fell forwards onto his stomach which doesn't help matters. They are getting pain medication filled for him right now.
He didn't sleep through the night last night, woke up in lots of pain. Hope things get better soon! He keeps saying tummy hurts!
Oh, is he enjoying getting mail! Thank you everyone!
Jack, you and your Ohana is still in our prayers. So sorry to hear that. But I kind of expected it. Plus it's not easy keeping someone with a heart of a lion still for long. Stay strong for him because he will feel the sadness doll. Smile even though your heart is breaking. His candies is on its way!! I would have thought the doc would have sent him home with some pain killers since they didn't keep him overnight to monitor. I swear now days they just go for quantity and not quality. Not saying his doc isn't good but I just think this is what most has come too. In and out. So sad because we pay pretty hard earned money for the help needed and sorry I just can't beleive they didn't at least monitor him overnight or to the point where he was going to feel the very first downer of what he just went through. Ok ima stop raving and just keep praying for our lil man. Soon as his cards start rolling in I think that be such great joy for him . Love you ms Ann mahalo for the update. Stay strong!!
Many many thanks to everyone for sending Jack all these amazing cards! He is so loving getting mail!!
He is doing better, not so much pain and the bandages are now off! However, those bandages made him break out all over his stomach with a rash! Sensitive skin is a pain!!
My daughter-in -law is saving everyone of them for him! She even invited friends over to see all of them! Exciting to hear Jacks comments about the cards! He says, "grandma these are all mine"!! " I love them" and "look at all my trains"!
To all of my fellow card makers I am in your debt for making my grandson so very happy!! Hugs to all of you!!
So glad his doing well aside from the bandaid rash. Hi got a heart of a lion and it does my heart great to know out lil master Jack will now be his choo choo conductor!! Lol no welcome needed your such a sweetheart and it was my pleasure as well as the others I'm sure. Still keeping you ,Jack and your Ohana in my prayers!! Blessings your way sweet Ms Ann.
