We’re back!

Written by

For the past week, a friend has been helping us work with the backup database for FoG. Now we have it all back and hosted on a different server. We really just wanted to make sure that we could get to all of the posts and comments as soon as possible.

MANY thanks to my friend Tom Wilk. He doesn’t know Geraldine very well, but when he heard what happened, he jumped in the thick of things to get the database restored.

As you can see, the pictures are gone and the formatting looks a bit funky in places, but we do have all of the raw data back. With some cleanup and design elements back in place, we’ll be good to go in no time.

Hello All,

I want to express my gratitude to Malcom and the others who helped him rebuild the web site. This site has become a part of all our lives, and it means a lot. It offers a sense of community as we join in our encouragement for Geraldine and her family.

Geraldine, Viviane, Martine, and Andrew,

This forum is one way that I can send you my best wishes and moral support for all that you have been through and the events to come. I often think of all of you, and I am with you in spirit.

Love,

Harvey

Thank you very much, Tom and Malcom! You guys are awesome.

Geraldine,

I just wanted to let you know I’m thinking about you and I miss you. It’s time for lunch at Cheddars! You, Kimmy, Crystal and maybe the “Dark Lord”.

C.

Great job getting the site back up and running. And while we’re at it… thanks for creating this site in the first place! I know it has meant a lot to Geraldine and all of her friends and family; it’s meant a lot to me personally because I’m too far to keep tabs on Geraldine myself, and I know how much trouble she can get into.
Side note, if the f@#*er that screwed with the site is reading this: I hope you get a really bad crab infestation.

OMG Gwen that was fabulous!!! LOVE IT!

Thanks to EVERYONE that works so hard on this website. It is horrible that someone is so loney and has nothing else better to do in their life!

Great job on everything you do for our WONDERFUL friend!

Thanks to everyone who got this site back up. I know it must have been a lot of work and that just shows how much Geraldine is loved. I’m too very far away and this makes me feel connected.
Geraldine – I love you my dear. I smile when I think of you and how your friendship is treasured.

Heartfelt thanks to Malcom, et al for getting the site back on track.
It means a lot to those who care about Geraldine but maybe cannot communicate directly or easily.
Although I would like to comment on the destructive party with the cold black heart who destroyed the site, I will refrain. After all, we are reminded that this site is about Geraldine’s journey and the community that cares for her.
Love you G.
