The Puerto Rican Diaspora (book)
Migrating and building communities in the U.S.A. From Hawai'i in 1900 to New England—the Puerto Rican diaspora grows in the States...more than in Puerto Rico itself.


Don Jibaro: "I own this book. It makes me churn.

he Health Report
DEAR JIBAROS... Last Friday morning I was hauled away in an ambulance with bright lights, noisy sirens and driving on the wrong side of the street.  I was speeded into an Cardiac Emergency Room cuz I could not breathe. Fearing a possible heart attack and/or stroke, it took two ambulances with 4 hunky medics to lift me up on the gurney into the ambulance.

The ambulance ride was terrible... it felt it didn't have
 any shock absorbers. Picture a Marx's brothers ride.

I began to sing BST's...

"I'm not scared of dying and I, don't really care
if it' s peace you find in dying, well then, let the time be near... just bundle up my coffin, 'cause it's cold way down there, yeah, crazy cold, way down there

My life has been changed, even as I write this to you, my favorite people. You see, once you drift into a possible life or death situation, you're never the same anymore. Because life is "nothing but a vapor" (James), here today and gone tomorrow, you learn to appreciate it more and every second is precious.

Huh, huh! Not my idea of an urgent ride

!Near death experiences instill a sense of thanks to God, because you've been given a second chance. There's also more passion in your outlook and less worry. You want all affairs in order. Peace with all men and women. Owe nothing to nobody. Clean your slate. Yes!

I wanted to ride in this beauty but I was too big
and my legs hung out pass the bumper.

I've also become a vegetarian just to put less stuff for the body to metabolize... just fish and veggies.

I weep gratefully.
