JEFF UPDATE:
a. 5/6/11@10am: Jeff was in surgery for approx 5 hours
yesterday and came through like a trooper. His son Ryan
arrived last night from Guadalajara. Jeff was so happy to
see him. Jeff is amazing and recovering so ahead of
schedule. Today he will be so much more comfortable. Thanks
again everyone. Natalie
b. 5/6/11@ 9:15am: Good morning K. Please post for me:
Jeff is doing very well. Surgery was a great success and
he's remarkable really! A lesser guy might not be doing
this great. Everyone who has called I am sorry if I couldn't
talk to all of you but your prayers and blood have made all
the difference. The personnel at the hospital are so kind
and compassionate. I am so surprised at the caliber of
doctors and nurses. Thanks to all! Natalie Prince
c. Also if you would like to get updates on Facebook send
me a friend request Kimberly Glick Ford
d. 5/5/11 @ 2:30PM I received this update from Jeff's
sister Natalie.
Thank you everyone for the tireless efforts and determined
resolve in the turn out for blood donations. Jeff would not
be having surgery today if it were not for the friends who
have shown so much love and support.
I am working with his insurance to get him air-vac'ed to
Scripps as soon as he is stable. He could not be moved until
the open fractures to the hip and elbow were reduced and
fixed. This should give him the stability to be moved. He
was taken into surgery minutes ago.
I am in touch with Adrian Gonzales who operates ICU
transport and low altitude air transportation but first the
insurance red tape has to be dealt with.
Jeff's daughter arrived yesterday and son arrives this
afternoon. We have all been able to stay at Alexa's mom and
stepdad's house which is a blessing.
Thanks again for the support which has been extraordinary,
especially Charlene Winger, Kimberly, Kim Meehan and Cesar.
Don't know what I would have done without you. Love to all,
Jeff's sister Natalie Prince
e. The blood banks have all the blood that they need for
now, however they may need more so please stay close and
check for updates.

f. Medical note from Char
Thanks to the outpouring of blood donors, Jeff Niemi will be
able to proceed with the first of several necessary
surgeries. Dr. Rocha his general surgeon and Dr. Escamilla
his orthopedic will proceed with phase one to get Jeff
ready for anticipated medical evacuation. Jeff is
challenged with a long road to recovery with Physical
Therapy.
I spoke with him yesterday and he is weak and as usual very
optimistic.
Glitches in the blood banks will be addressed with the
appropriate sources, thanks for the feedback to make this
system more user friendly.
This brings to light my plea for our continued need to
improve our Emergency Medical Response System with good
equipment and training for the paramedics in our community.
East Cape Health Center is planning a fundraiser on 20 May
at East Cape RV Resort to marry up with EISF, our new sister
city organization. Registration and tickets for their
fishing tournament on 19-21 May can be purchased at the
Plaza Pueblo Roadrunnner Cafe on Friday or any day at East
Cape Community Dental Clinic. Dozens of Paramedics and
Firefighters are coming with equipment and training
materials to work with our local guys in Buena Vista and Las
Cuevas.
Your support is always greatly appreciated and my continued
dedication to East Cape Community is steadfast to provide
the best training and response to emergencies and superior
Medical/ Dental services to our community.

RECYCLING NEWS
Before everyone heads north, please be sure to thank Lynn
Mirassou and Theresa Comber for the wonderful service they
provide so every month we can recycle two HUGE trailers full
of mostly plastic bottles, paper, glass and cans. And if you
recycle, thank you very much. If you don't recycle, please
consider giving it a try. I volunteer, with group of others,
who sort the bags of recyclables every month. This means we
open every bag to make certain that the drop-offs are
separated into plastic, glass, paper and cans, all the lids
are removed from bottles and that the plastic and cans are
crushed. Think about it...this is a lot like digging through
garbage cans. So, as a huge favor to those of us who
volunteer, please deliver your recyclables, SEPARATED,
CRUSHED, LIDS REMOVED...and for extra credit, please WASH
OUT YOUR RECYCLABLE CONTAINERS. The volunteers will love
you. Remember, in order to continue the recycle program,
enough funds must be collected each month to pay the cost
for hauling to UVERDE. Please make a $50 peso contribution
(which helps pay for the driver and his truck) when you drop
off your recyclables, so we can continue to have this
service in Los Barriles. Thanks.

THUMBS UP - Please sign
a. Thank you Awesome Sport Fishing!!
We did our 4th bi-annual boat ride with Awesome Sport
Fishing and as always it was Awesome!!! We got to fish
(caught a 29lb Dorado!!) and 3 other fish, went to Cerralvo
Island and shell hunted (they have great shells and other
treasures there), snorkeled and just had a great day!!
Watching the crew on the 'hunt' for a fish was so
interesting and amazing. We went for the first time on
'regular' Awesome (not the bigger boat the Too Awesome), and
found that the way it is configured worked better for our
group of 10. Theresa and the gang are great to work with
and will let you tailor a trip to what you want to do - ie,
snorkel, fish, dolphin watch, hang with the mantaray, sight
see or all of the above. You don't have to be a hard core
fisherman to enjoy being on one of these trips. We just
wish we had time to do the swimming with the mantaray!! It
was an all day trip and such great value!! Heck, you get
breakfast too!!
Our suggestion is to put this on your list of must do trips
when you are down here. I wish I had time for another trip
before I leave!! Jon & Chris Courtright
