I will be lighting a candle as I think of and pray for Andy (GPanda) tomorrow morning when I get up and have breakfast. I wondered if all those Fodorites who have benefitted from Andy's great posts over the years will join me, all over the world, wherever you are, as your day begins on Monday Jan 3rd, light a candle for Andy and hold him and Beth in your thoughts and send strength and healing thoughts his way as he undergoes this surgery.
Please join me and let all Fodorites know where your candle will be shining

Sue Huml, will be lighting a candle in Chicago Illinois, USA.

It is already January 3 here in Beijing. The day dawned hazy but now the sun is shining which I take as an excellent omen here in the ancestral land of Pandas.

Heading out soon to find both joss sticks and a candle to light in anticipation of January 3 dawning in Boston soon. Can't be too careful so a little eastern insurance and a little western insurance sounds about right.

Wouldn't we love to see a satellite photo of candles lit 'round the world in support of Andy? Panda-monium on the planet,'tis.

Andy, for what it's worth, we spent hideous dark months at the Brigham a few years back and thought that all was coming to an end but miraculously it didn't. I don't presume to know your journey but I do know from hard-won experience that life can surprise us -- fortunes can turn just when we are certain that they won't. I am thinking of you.

More candles for Beth, Bob, and Karen during the vigil ahead.

We will be thinking of all of you and watching for updates.

I'll light one here in Maryland, too. All the best.

Considering this was only posted about four hours ago, this is so heartwarming and special. Just thinking of all that focused energy and thought coming from so many parts of the world all beaming in towards our GPanda. Even if your dawn has already broken in Australia, Thailand, Japan or India, it's not too late to join us, because Jan 3rd hasn't arrived here (in the US) yet.
I want Beth to picture our earth from outer space with burning candles/joss sticks/ tiki torches on many continents with us humans spending some focused moments sending our healing thoughts towards a special friend to all of us - one who I've never even met.

Sue, but of course you know he's not nearly as nice in person as he is on Fodor's?

Only joking!!! But Andy is a seriously funny guy, so that comment was in his honor.

My candle is ready, and I'm going outside to wish on a star right now.

No candles available in my Trichy hotel (there was an emergency one in the bathroom at the last place), but am sending white light and healing thoughts from India.
