A message from Filthy Mikes mum

[sabergirl]

Thank you for sharing her kind words with us, Giles. Mike had an extremely muscular heart from all of the love he put out into the world. His heart got a workout every day. ️

Thanks for passing along Bernadette’s words and update. It’s very nice of her to still think of our strange, niche passion shared by Mike.

Latest message....

Giles, I received the notice from PayPal about the payment. I had my second hand surgery today and it was good to get this news. I continue to be amazed and humbled at the generosity of the Iron Heart forum members. All of you are close to my heart and as we prepare for Easter, I especially remember all in my prayers. Thank you again so much. Bernadette

Easy to see where Mike's kindness came from.

Hello Giles, Since it has been a few weeks since we have “talked”, I hope all is well with you and that you are enjoying a great Easter season. Thank you so much for the payment. Since we last communicated, I have had both my hands operated on for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and this coming Monday, I am having a total knee replacement. I will have to be in the regular hospital for a few days because of my heart problems and then I will be recovering in a rehabilitation center for a few weeks. I will still be able to receive your e-mails on my phone. I was wondering if you were able to post my letter to the Forum members. I can’t begin to reiterate how much it means to me that all of you have shown such kindness. Bernadette

Bless her Mums are best in the world

Oh wow, I did not realize how much we would be directly helping her. That is awesome, and I hope she has a speedy recovery. I hope Mike knows how much we have been helping and caring for his Mom.

[sabergirl]

Please tell Bernadette thank you for staying in touch with continued updates, and that we all wish her a speedy recovery from the knee replacement! ️ I hope that Pickles is also living her best kitty life ‍

The human condition is real. May you heal quickly and be in a better place physically once this is past you!

I’m so glad to start my weekend with a message like this. I hope she recovers well. We make annual contributions to American Heart Assoc, Save The Children (shout out to Luciana!), St Jude’s Children’s Hospital and every store check out request we come across but having a first hand relationship with someone touched by both tragedy and outreach is really a cool perspective.

@Matt I'm starting to like you....

[Giles]

Easy......

[goosehd]

Barely like...

[Matt]

I’d like my epitaph to read “Matt Raspa…Pretty Much Only Liked By Canadians.”

[goosehd]

That's not really a good thing...we have to like everybody.

[goosehd]

Thank god I have Virginian/West Virginian in my blood and only Canadian by choice...so I only have to half like you...

Sending love and encouragement to Bernadette…hoping she recovers quickly from her procedures. This place continues to inspire me and I’m grateful daily for that.
