Thanks, Laura. For e-mailing and sharing the response (I was about to click on "send" right when I saw your post, and I'm glad I didn't - I guess Jeff's sister has enough on her hands right now).

All the possible health vibes for Jeff, and calmness to both him and his family.

He is ridiculously excited.

That's so cute! Is that the first - I'm not sure how to phrase it - close-family wedding he's going to attend?

Oh dear, I hope they can fix Jeff's kidney!

Everything good and health-inducing to Jeff and his fam and friends.

Well, if Jeff ends up needing a new kidney he should let the hive-mind know.

It would be a first for us but I wouldn't be shocked if we pulled it off. Or out. Or, well, you know...

Oh wow, that's rough. Here's wishing health-ma to Jeff.

Nilly, yes, I think this is his first close-family wedding. My sister is gonna make him wear one of those hilariously gay but ridiculously cute suits w/ the short pants and he's gonna toss flower petals hither and thither.

Oh, dear. Prayers to Jeff and family.

I got the impression from her quick and friendly responses that she was more than happy to pass along good wishes to cheer Jeff.

Renal function karma to Jeff. Yikes.

On the up side, he's been a cyborg (okay, not really) his whole time as a Buffista, and we never knew!!

Next, Daniel Jensen will confess to having a bionic arm.
