Debbie Linke has had trouble with her heart since the early 2000’s. In late March 2023 her condition declined quickly. After a few weeks at CMH then sent to VCU, where they prepped for heart transplant due to the severity of her condition. On April 19th a balloon pump was installed to help her heart pump. She then had to lay completely flat and unable to move, sit up, or get out of bed. She received a heart transplant on April 30th. Since then, she has been in rehab is now home with home health and therapy coming out to help her get used to her new normal lifestyle!

On March 23rd, Lucas suffered a traumatic brain injury resulting from a baseball accident at school. While practicing, he was hit in the left temple by a hard-hit ball that took a bad hop. Since then, treatment has included 2 ER visits, 2 CT scans, 1 MRI, and a team of specialists. His symptoms include memory loss, constant headaches, vision and hearing issues, along with cognitive deficiencies. He enjoys the outdoors and fortunately has not lost his sense of humor!!

KJ is a 4 year old boy that has Osteogenesis Imperfecta also known as brittle bone disease. OI occurs in about 1 in 20,000 live births. Currently there is no cure for OI. He has suffered a couple breaks in his short years of life as he will for the rest of his life along with possible other complications that come with the disease. Soon he will be undergoing surgery to correct his feet because of OI. He enjoys being outside, playing with cars, and being with his family. Life for KJ isn't the same as a normal four year old but we all try to make the most of it for him to have the most normal childhood he can.

Stickers

For 19 years we have included stickers in each issue of the magazine. I personally put each and every sticker in each and every copy myself (Doobie)!!! Here lately folks have gotten bad about pulling stickers out of many copies... I guess because they like the stickers so much. It has happened in the past but not like it has the last few issues. It is unfair to others who pick up a copy of the magazine only to find that their copy does not have a sticker. So, starting with the Jan-Feb 2023 issue of Behind Barz we are not going to place stickers in each copy. We will have stickers available for FREE but you have to send a self addressed, stamped envelope to our PO Box listed on previous page. We will then send you the sticker that goes with this issue (if you write “BB FREEDOM” on the envelope) plus we will throw in 3 more stickers, of our choice. We hate this has to be done but with the time it takes to place each sticker in every copy and then people are pulling the stickers out we feel that this is the best way to do it right now. Thanks for your continued support! We still have lots of killer prizes from our sponsors on the previous page to give away. So remember, you can’t win it if you don’t stick it!
