Prayers for ESavinon

The SRT King needs our thoughts and prayers for his healing from Covid-19. He is in the ICU and is being placed on a ventilator this afternoon. Ed has been and EMT for the NYC Fire Dept., for 27 years. Most recently he has been working out of the South Bronx. Ed has been in the belly of the beast on the front lines helping people and responding to the sick since the beginning.

Ed is a 9/11 first responder. He is a hero to me and to most people that have met him. Get well Ed!

Here he is at Polkfest 2012

    Ed is one of the nicest people you'd ever hope to meet. Give that virus hell brother.

    I hope so too. I asked Carl to mention it and the Z-pack to Ed's family in order for them to request that treatment from Ed's doctor.

    Our Father please hear this prayer that Ed will be needed by many others in these times. His work is not done in NYC.

    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

    May God bless Ed and guide his caregivers to make him well again. Amen.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?
