47. Kick for eggbeater, and an update from his wife:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=5684860&mesg_id=5686515

54. From Mrs Eggbeater
Yes Eggbeater is still with us.
He had a bad night last night and is not able right now to post for himself.
He asked me to thank you all once again for your concern and well wishes.

Ed, (aka Eggbeater) has always tried to be there for his family, and those around him regardless of his ever meeting them before.

Im sure that he will be back on again himself, he is just to spirited to leave us just yet.

As for his family, He will be leaving us very well off as far as our daily needs go, he made sure of that.

The empty space that he will leave around here will be great, but as a strong Christian family, our faith gives us the comfort that he is being called back home by God and that we his family are being asked to allow him to go.

This is the first post that I have ever made to any internet group, I wish it could have been one with a more positive message.

As Ed would make sure to say.
God bless you all and continue to fight for those that cannot fight for themselves.
