This is always a bad situation, but it seems so much worse when one has the zest for life that JJ obviously has.

All I can add is that I, too, will keep JJ & his family in my thoughts & prayers.

When I heard this news I was devastated. I've known JJ for almost 10 years. Mostly through forums, but I've had the pleasure of meeting him and Zemina personally. They are both wonderful people. I hate to see them go through this terrible time. We can only hope for miracles pray for him and his family.

In my judgement, JJ is a man of excellent and inimitable wit and unassailable integrity.

He has my highest respect and best wishes.

I just don't know what else to say.

JJ speaks for himself.
