Our Friend KDub Could Use a BIG Hug

Get well soon, dear mentor. Will pray for you over here… Godspeed.

via Things That Go Bump in the Night 

Dear Friends,

I have some extremely unfortunate news to report concerning an incident that happened late last Sunday night (July 23rd). The following letter—written by Ken to the I-I managers—explains a series of unfortunate accidents that have left him not that much far removed from functionally quadriplegic. Without assistance, he can’t stand up, walk around, sit down, lie down or any other of the 100 simplest actions. We believe that he will make a recovery but we expect it to take six months to a year. The following e-mail is self-explanatory, and is the very first thing he wrote about his situation. You will see the humor and wit and Lightness with which he carries even these difficult things. Please stay tuned to the site, and we will give you more of the medical facts as they become available. But we wanted to rush this early announcement as soon as we possibly could. Below the letter you will see that we have included five photographs of his pretty badly smashed up body.

Some people have wanted to know if they can get Ken presents or make some sort of contribution in his name to a charity. Ken has requested that if you are not a member of Integral Institute, please become one and if you already are please make as many gift memberships for your friends as you can.

Ouch!

 I send healing thoughts to Ken and trust he is in the loving and caring hands of those closest to him.  In his pictures he looks strong both physically and in spirit.  This is encouraging.  May his recovery be swift and sure!

 Much Love,

Jason

Re: Our Friend KDub Could Use a BIG Hug

I'm so sorry to hear about this.

So sorry that Ken is going through this.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Ken, along with deepest wishes for a full and speedy recovery.

With great love + great respect…

…and a big hug. 

Re: Our Friend KDub Could Use a BIG Hug

Ouch!

Dood!!! Watch your step!!

Although the face took a beating, thankfully the fashion photographers can still use your body…except for that damn purple (!) spot. (bigger than a dog. you're a funny man.)

In my thoughts. Get better.

… The pics of Ken's smiling face as he dealt with all the lurid bruises and swelling drove me straight to sign up for the I-I membership. How absolutely bleeding heart Green of me, hmmmm … Sending a hug and well wishes … :) Kate

Re: Our Friend KDub Could Use a BIG Hug

Get well soon! I send all of my healing energy your way. It is the least i can do. You have changed my life in so many ways.. and we have never even met.

Re: Our Friend KDub Could Use a BIG Hug

Gonna set up some crystals with focused intense healing energies!!  Time to ignite with Light!  Much like Ram Dass, I am sure this is an opportunity for Fierce Grace!!   Get well, Ken!!

And so it is! 

In Love, Light & Truth…

Re: Our Friend KDub Could Use a BIG Hug

Ken, we love you here at Zaadz, sometimes more and sometimes only slightly less than Buddha or Jesus!

That's a lot of love, or else worship and veneration, which is like love but involves more statues, altars and bowing - which I guess we could do for you, though that hardly seems useful right now. Besides, you're not a guru anyway;) So, if I ever have the honor of meeting you I'll give you a big hug instead of a bundle of smoking incense, being sure to avoid that big purple puppy on your side.  

For right now I'll just join Integral University. 

I wish you a speedy recovery with lots of flowers. 

Love & Love,

Jessica

Wishing Ken a very speedy recovery!

Re: Take Joy & Courage in Healing here & now!

Ken,

Having experienced the grace and grit with Treya and knowing so well the purpose and meaning of disease, illness and sickness, you’ve been there and you know it better than anyone else. Autoimmunity and CFIDS, unlike cancer, implies the body turning against the self and it often reflects a temporary shift of your inner ‘daemon’ to demons and just a detour on the path.

Remember Hippocrates and his wise saying: “Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.”

With you strong body, mind and spirit, we know and believe that your recovery is just a matter of time, and you can use the ‘down time’ to do/are what you do/are best. Wishing you to make the best of this experience and opportunity and Godspeed in being at your best again.

Thank you for teaching us the invaluable lessons of healing and transcending. You are always already healed, never mind the ‘purple puppy’ and the ‘ugly drapes’. Enjoy the biggest tattoo you ever got and let your sense of humor fly as you always do so wonderfully!

And since the greatest healing therapy is friendship and love, immerse yourself virtually and literally in all the healing energy, prayers and love that we are sending your way from zaadz, II and beyond.

Take Joy & Courage in Healing here and now,
Darina

Re: Our Friend KDub Could Use a BIG Hug

Sending positive healing thoughts your way Ken!

…he fractured some ribs. It will be quite painful to move around for a while …That swelling  concerns me though.

Namaste

Re: Our Friend KDub Could Use a BIG Hug

I'm new to KW's writings and all that, but recognize a thought leader when I see one. If you see this, I hope you are feeling better, Ken and if you'd like Reiki sent, just say the word.  Not to put too fine a point on it  - it makes you mo bettah…

Namaste ~

“man, someone cook the brother a bowl of soup! like today! ”

I had the same response! !

My husband always teases me that whenever anything happens I get out my soup pot.  It's true. 

I'm glad it's not just me having these urges.  I was ready to chalk it up to my high levels of mothering hormones. 

I even contacted Clint and threatened to come there with my soup pot and satchel. ( I have a bag packed, and I will go motherlove on your asses if need be!)

You'd better post some pics soon of kw in a fluffy (of course!) bathrobe sipping tea (not diet coke!) and eating some soup. 

The world is watching.
