To know Joey and Kerri is to love them. The news of both of them being diagnosed with cancer is heartbreaking. We've created this site so that you can get updates, offer help, and use the guest book to write thoughts of encouragement and love. The outpouring of love and support they are receiving is very wanted and appreciated, however there will be times in the future when the Lynchs may not be able to keep up with phone calls and visits. Please use this site as an alternative means to stay connected.

Good Morning. I would love to say we had a wonderful night together, but unfortulately, that was no so. Joey had a rough night. They set up a bed for me beside him and I was so glad they did. He is in a lot of pain today, but they changed his meds, so hopefully, now we can get him up and he won't feel nausea. Thanks for understanding our need to keep him quite. Hopefully by the beginning of the week, he'll feel up to seeing you. Love to all.

    Donna and I heard about you and Joe this past week and you've been in our thoughts and prayers ever since. I recently lost my job and thought it was a pretty big deal...it's really nothing campared to what you guys are going through. Please know that you're loved by all and will certainly be thought of daily. Tell Joe we said hi and keep up the positive thoughts.

    Love,

    Rob and Donna Neill

    You all have been thru alot and you just need family time now and time for Joey to heal. We all understand that because it is so important in order for him to get better.
    He has a great bedside nurse !! Glad you could stay with him last night Kerri. Hope you got some sleep. Take care of yourself and give Joey a kiss.
    Love,

  6. we want you to know that we are keeping up with both of you on this site . you are both in our thoughts and prayers . Danny has a special message -- when either of you are ready to come home post surgery , anything on the lot at Webbs is available to you . also , he is glad to drive you home with one blind eye and the other not so great plus he will pay the tolls . the first part of this offer stands but not the second . By the time you get to Freeport you would have more anxiety than before the surgery. Take care ,we love you , Danny and Linda

  13. Hi Kerri,
    Tell Joey to hang in there. It does get better. Every day he will get a little bit stronger. I think you are doing the right thing by trying to get as much rest as you can. Bronwen, Shelley and I are going to meet tomorrow so you will have everything you need when you bring Joey home. Talk with you soon. Sending our love, Joanne&Terry

  14. To my loving brother, sister-in-law who I consider a sister, and awesome nephews..... I wish I could be there helping in some way but am sending you all positive thoughts and know both of you are going to come out of this stronger as we all will. I am walking next week-end for the City of Largo, FL Angel Warriors, (this has been planned since January) for the Relay of Life...Fight Against Cancer for the American Cancer Society. At the time when I signed up I was thinking of Scott and Sadie our survivors, and of course our loved ones we have lost. But I never dreamed that my baby brother and his wife would have to go through this. But what is so amazing is that you are doing this together. Were you two ever meant to be or what!! Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you all. I love you soooooo much. Kerri....we are doing our overnight to Portland this year right??!! Hell...let's do Boston!!! Miss you...love you all...talk to you when you are up to it....Love, Debbie, Joe, Jerry & Max
