Your Get Well Soon Messages to Ronnie

It's been a while since I posted my last get well message, So I thought I'd take a moment and do so now. I was just driving home from work in Ontario, California and listening to Dio along the way, which has been my daily ritual since the horrible news was announced. I was stuck at the stop light at the intersection of jarupa and milliken with Dream Evil blaring out of my speakers.......and I broke down crying. I'm 38 years old, a grown man, and there I sat crying like a baby. I felt foolish at first, especialy when I noticed the person in the car next to me watching. I thought about it after and realised.....I wasn't crying because I'm sensative, I wasn't crying because I'm an ovegrown baby. I was crying as I would for any family member that I love if they were going through this. I have never formaly met Ronnie or Wendy, but they have been a part of my life since I was 13 years old. I feel love for the both of them as Dio has been there for the best parts of my life....and the worst parts of my life. I've had loves, friends, associates, and even family members come and go in my life....But Ronnie has always been here and has never left. I offer Ronnie and Wendy all of my strength and will power in this fight against evil....and I am positive we will conquer this monster!!!

Hi Ronnie

It's been a week since I left a message but I think about you every day. I hope you are feeling better and stronger - can't wait to hear that these 'get well soon' messages are no longer relevant.

Love you to bits

Hugs and kisses

Melanie

Hey there Ronnie!

I had an awkward "Ronnie Moment" at the gym this morning.... I have my music up loud enough to drown out the Zumba class in the next room, and the general ambient noise, but not so loud that it's harmful. Sometimes I'll space out a little, but not so much that I'm not kind of focusing on what I'm doing. Anyway...those last couple of reps on the bicep curl are always a bitch since I have girly arms (since I am a girl after all!). The awkward part...I joined you, outloud, with "shame on the niiiiiiiight!" It's not like the whole room heard me, just one or two people around me. I just gave a cheesy smile and a thumbs up, and they looked at me like I had snakes for hair. Rolling Eyes

So I'm a little odd, but I'm normal for me! Laughing

I've also been known to air drum...(and if you try to keep up with one of Vinny's drum solos on the elliptical machine, it will nearly kill you. I could have sworn I heard somebody yell CLEAR!!!)

Oh well, not everybody understands rock and roll do they? Laughing

Hope all is well. Rest up. You have an entire world to rock...

Love ya,
Sarah

Hi there Beautiful Ronnie

It's been another week already but I haven't forgotten you. It looks like it's just down to me and little StargazerGeisha - we girls are the last in line and won't stop until you are better 'cos we luv ya! (and that's no lie - I wouldn't tell a lie about love).

I hope all is still going well for you - have you finished with the chemo and are you behaving yourself?

(Can somebody please tell me if these messages are still being sent on - I don't want to be prattling on like a nutter for no reason).

Lots of hugs and kisses (one day I hope to cash in at least one of those hugs and maybe a little kiss - but it's a long way between Australia and the States.)

Thank you for posting update of Ronnie's progress, Wendy.
It's more detailed report this time.
And it's so tough to fly from LA to Houston so often particularly for the patient as I imagined. And I'm shocked to know that Ronnie can't taste any foods because of chemo treatment.
I understand that chemo will remove physical power too.
My heart is really aching. I don't want Ronnie to have such a hard time any more.

I always pray and send a positive energy streight to you, Ronnie.
Stay strong because we are always with you.

Full of love and hug from Japan.

Some of the things said in the update scare me a little, but it sounds like Ronnie is doing the best he can through it all. I will remain optomistic, and continue to keep him in my thoughts and prayers. Ronnie has a strong personality which is very important in times of crisis.

Hey there Ronnie!

You are making me feel like a slug with your daily walks. (I'm waiting to add my walks when the snow melts!)

Don't worry about missing the Super Bowl. It really wasn't all that exciting. When the Saints scored a touchdown, my niece said to me "This is lame. Let's go play Twister!" (Good call Kiddo! - Besides, they are Colts fans, and I suppose I'm morally obligated to be one too!)

That really sucks about everything tasting like metal. There isn't much that keeps me from eating, but that totally would. My friend says the same thing (she was diagnosed a couple of months ago with stage three lung cancer), and she says loading up on spices kind of helps...(hence you and your Indian food! Did I just say "hence?")

It sounds to me like you are doing everything right: keeping active, staying busy, doing stuff you like. I'm sure all of that goes a long way.

I'm still sending you good groovy vibes... Razz

Hello, Ronnie!
It's nice to read that the treatment is going well. You are my favourite rock singer with an amazing voice and I really admire you. I hope soon you'll be touring again. You are in my thoughts and I wish you a fast recovery and all the best.

Love and hugs from Croatia! Smile

Sorry to be a bore and repeating myself, but the thing is that there is such a longing for your return on the road that there are no (new) words to describe it. So.. see you!

Hi Ronnie

Another week gone - another week closer to you getting better. I see you have had your 5th chemo treatment - I hope you are coping ok with it, poor baby. All that flying back and forth and staying in hotels must be a real strain for you when you are feeling sick. Don't worry, it will be over soon and then the only flying back and forth you will be doing will be to go on tour again!

Love you to bits

Melanie

My thoughts and those of other mates of mine are with you. The fact you are talking about touring again is amazing but one step at a time. Take it easy and i hope you make a full recovery.

When we send the cards, post in the forums, Ronnie and Wendy can see evidence of how much we care, but I just want to make one thing clear:
We're just the tip of the iceberg.
We're a fraction of the many many people thinking about you every day, talking to people about it in person or on many other sites, playing your music, remembering how much we owe you, and how you've been the soundtrack to our varied lives. Maybe we're shy, can't find the right words, or don't know whether to let you recover in peace.. I'm not trying to speak for others, but you must know that for every card or email or post you receive, there are hundreds, thousands of silent prayers and well-wishes. Every one of them knows that you have the strength necessary for any battle, even this one.
They await your inevitable triumph.
Cool
