this is a woman who will never cease to amaze me. her brilliance shines, and i am so grateful to have gotten to known her like i have. i have never even met her in the flesh, yet her personality, understanding, and love, resonate deeply in everything i do. she's had a profound affect on my life.

i love you laura. welcome home.

i was lucky enough to have met Laura and she is one of the most radiant, genuine people I have ever met. She is really an amazing person. Nothing like these women on the train

I knew nothing would keep her from the upcoming tour news

Take care and keep healing.

Awww Laura If I knew how to make my letters big and bold and pink, I certainly would but wow, it's great that you're back home, absolutely brilliant.

Now rest up and come back to us in full force - although even a half hippiemom is still pretty special

Love ya

P.S. Listen to Bob

I agree.... WELCOME BACK,

but do rest...

So good to see you back Laura. I hope things keep going in a positive direction. That was quite a scare!!!
Love to you...Heather

Glad to know you're on the way to recovery, hippiemom! You are most welcome here. Rest up, but don't forget to return.

Wow.

I don't know what to say. You guys are the best I'm truly blown away.

Thank you so much ... all your thoughts and prayers must have made a difference, because here I am.

I'm a bit wobbly at the moment, but I just wanted to stop by for a minute to tell you all how very much I love you, and how much this means to me.

All the love in the world,
Laura

Aww we love u too girl! WELCOME HOME!!!!!!! I'm glad to see you are on the mend, and we'll all be here for u through the Chemo! Good luck sweetie, and all the best! ((hugs))

Aw hippiemom, I didn't see this till today. I missed the rollercoaster ride, but here I am at the end welcoming you back and wishing you all the best in the world. Take good care of yourself and DON'T RUSH ANYTHING... you deserve to come back at the pace you're supposed to (slowly and carefully). Everything will still be there when you're up to 100% again.

And we still need to rock out to Zep together, woman!!!

I must say I'm heartened by the coming together of *all* sides of *all* the arguments in this thread. Thankfully, we revealed that we are, above all, human beings who care for one another. I like thinking that THIS is the spirit of the fans of the band that brings us all together!

~peace~

I just found out the news today... I haven't been keeping up with the pits very much...but I'm glad I got to find out it went well and you're recovering, Laura!

I don't know you or even met you in person, but I can tell you are very respected - and adored by many here!

Even EK and abook love you so much - that's how I knew what you looked like in person, they showed me a picture of you, your hubby and others at even flow?'s house in Canada!

You are a beautiful person - inside and outside!

Get well, Laura!!

xoxo

Good Morning Hippie.. I bet everyday is a blessing and a challenge.

by the way.. who is this steppenwolf dude? Its sometimes difficult to distinguish personalities here in the pit.. now that he is linked to hippiemom - he immediately gains significant stature with me.

Hope today is as good as it can be!

I have met him - very cool dude indeed! Good morning Hippiemom - hope you're getting stronger each day!
