  Besides, no matter how well cleaned, you'd probably never get that bloody
aftertaste off the mug. <g>

  Back to my coffee now,

Um, somehow I don't think that the Metro Toronto Police Department
would arrange the death of an officer named Knight to honor a TV
show...

Or did you mean something else?

And I doubt they would intentionally put erroneous information of that nature
on their website, just to honour a TV show. Police departments take their honour
rolls very seriously.

IMPORTANT DEADLINE: Friday, May 19, 5PM Pacific, 8PM Eastern. If
you'd like to leave a message on my phone for Lynne, this is the
deadline to be included on the next audio CD I'll be making up
for her. See "Voices of Lynne's Friends" Project below for
details.

Sending Lynne a CD or tape so she can hear her friends voices is
the BEST WAY we can help her right now.

I have received this recent communication from one of Lynne's
sisters:

-----

     Lynne has finally been transferred from St. Michael's
     Hospital to a Complex Continuing Care facility at the
     Markham-Stouffville Hospital.  This is a very small unit (17
     beds) in a hospital north of Toronto which specializes in
     the care of individuals with complex medical needs.  We had
     been on their waiting list for nearly a year and are glad
     that a bed at last became available.  [This was one of the
     places we were hoping to transfer Lynne to for better care.]
     Lynne was moved there on March 6.  The hospital is much
     closer to where my sisters Sheila and Susan live and is
     accessible by transit for me.

     There is not much change to report in Lynne's condition [she
     remains in a coma], but we are hoping that
     Markham-Stouffville might be able to investigate at least
     some of the continuing medical concerns that Lynne developed
     at St. Michael's Hospital.

     Sheila's home address is still the best one for mail items.
     [See bottom of this email.]

     The ongoing concern of Lynne's friends is sincerely
     appreciated, and we always let Lynne know when people have
     been in touch.

-----

A few folks have written to me asking for details on what kind of
music Lynne likes as well as dislikes, and her sisters provided
me with this info:

Likes:

     Gordon Lightfoot (see note 1)
     Barbara Streisand
     Bob Dylan

     Melanie [Safka] (see note 2)
     Peter, Paul and Mary (see note 2)
     Broadway-type show tunes (see note 2)

Dislikes:

     Country and western and opera

Note 1: Lynne has been a Gordon Lightfoot fan for years and
years, and also a personal friend to him. You probably do NOT
need to think about sending Lynne any of Gordon's music. I'm
including Gordon Lightfoot on the list in case you think, "Oh!
Well if she likes Gordon, she might also like...."

Note 2: Lynne's sisters would especially welcome music of these
types as they don't have any of them to play for her right now.

A few people have somehow missed the initial news about Lynne's
going into the hospital so here's a brief summary: Lynne was
admitted on 12/12/04 with pneumonia. At first she started
responding to the antibiotic but then she got very ill because of
an allergic reaction. On 12/20/04 she was moved to the ICU
(Intensive Care Unit). After being in a coma for several weeks,
on 01/13/05 she was awake and alert for a significant period of
time during the day. She continued to improve, albeit slowly, and
eventually was moved (in February) out of ICU and into a private
room. She began receiving physical therapy and was getting
stronger. But in mid-February she had trouble breathing again and
was moved into a different hospital unit for closer monitoring.
She was moved back to a regular room once she stabilized and then
her condition continued to improve. Sadly, she again slipped into
a coma in mid-April and has not regained consciousness since. She
continues to have a traech tube inserted to assist her breathing.
In December 2005 her sisters moved her belongings from her
apartment into storage.

Sorry if some of you are receiving this message more than once.

Kind regards,
Todd Andrews
Portland, OR

The following information will be repeated in each update about
Lynne so you don't have to look up prior emails to find this
info.

1) Send letters and packages (large or small) to Lynne at:

   Lynne Ackerman
   c/o Sheila Ziedenberg
   XX Xxx Xxxxxxxx
   Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Ontario
   CANADA
   XXX XXX

2) The "Voices of Lynne's Friends" Project:

   This is an ongoing project where people can call my voice mail
   and leave a message. The voice mail service I use creates
   digital audio files of the sender's call so it's easy for me
   to create a CD after enough have accumulated.

   Got a funny story to tell? Did something funny or interesting
   happen to you today? An update on what's happening in your
   life lately (new kid, new job, travel)? Please consider
   sharing it!

   The TOLL FREE number is 1-888-778-3092 and when prompted for
   my phone number use: (503) 289-4718.

   Obviously you must be using a touch-tone phone.

   Call any time; it does not ring in my house so you don't have
   to worry about waking me up if I'm sleeping. The voice mail
   service has a five minute limit PER CALL but you may call as
   often as you like.

3) The "Audio Gifts for Lynne" Project:

   I've set up a gift registry that you can access for free at:

                     http://tinyurl.com/9mymw

   Cassette or CD is OK. A shipping address is included at the
   above link.

   If you or someone you know has already sent gifts to Lynne,
   please visit the registry URL above to update the fact you've
   purchased something, so that we don't have two or more people
   sending the same item.

   Some of the items have links to a web site where you *could*
   buy the item, but mainly the link is provided for the
   description. You need not feel obligated to buy them from the
   linked-to website.

   If you know of other audio/music interests that Lynne has, and
   you want to share your ideas with others through the registry,
   please let me know your suggestions and I'll add them.

But his name was John Knight.  What has that got to do
with Nick moving on?
