Topic: A fellow Swamper needs your thoughts and prayers

Very good news.

It is, indeed! 

There has to be a hospital somewhere that has decent food with some taste.

I actually quite enjoyed most of the food I had while in the tiny little hospital in our tiny little town.  It may have had more to do with how low my expectations were.

Great News!

This is great news.  Heres wishing for a continued speedy and full recovery.

More good news!

I just got off the phone with Sinc. He's still fairly weak, but gaining strength every day. He said he's hoping to be back at work in a week, or two at the most. So I'd say he's definitely feeling better! And I did tell him about all the well wishes being sent. I'm pretty sure that he still doesn't have access to the internet, but I will be sure to point him here and to the similar thread over on the Autodesk C3D forum once he can access them.

That's awesome Jeff. So good to hear, and grateful you can share it with us. Thank you, and continued prayers for swift and thorough recovery. Michael.

Tell him to check over at Beer Leg/ Surveyor Connect also. I have been reposting your info over there too. He has a lot of well wishers there too.

Ditto.

Thanks, Dent, will do. I had thought about posting over there but had never posted on that site before...wasn't sure of their protocol.

[Dent Cermak]

Their "protocol" is probably the sane as here, so there would be no problems posting there. Another group of good people talking about what they do and trying to learn how to do it better. Probably half the folks on there are the CAD Monkeys. AND like this site, they are very concerned when one of the posters goes down like Sinc did.
Beer Leg or Surveyor Connect would be a good site for anyone here in the survey drafting end to peruse from time to time. A lot of good info is available there too. They are not as much into the engineering stuff and LISP programming , but are more of the small one or two guys in the field trying to make a living types.
If you follow one site you are missiing a lot. There are MANY sites out there, The trick is to find the best ones. For the programming power user, this is the place to be, for the Surveying and Mapping CAD Tech, Surveyor Connect has a lot to offer, put them together and you have some awesome tools.

Jeff_M, heard anything lately about Sinc?

[Jeff_M]

Yes, Dent, sorry. I had meant to post this yesterday and got caught up in a work emergency.

I spoke with Sinc's Dad Tuesday evening. They changed his medication and his body seems to be really liking it as he's showing more improvement. He still is facing a long recovery period, but they are all quite optimistic for a full recovery. I hope to talk with Sinc again this weekend.

Will post more as I know more, in a more timely manner.

verry good to hear!

[Jeff_M]

Looks like I posted too soon, as I just got off the phone with Sinc's sister, Rinah. Today is not a good day, I guess he's been having some good and others not so good. Richard's liver has stopped responding to treatment now, and the enzymes are saying he's at the 19% survival level. The docs have decided to move him to a chronic care facility for 90 days since there is nothing more they can do except continue administering the medicines and hope they begin to work better. He is not a candidate for a transplant. I'm stunned and can't add any more.

Sounds like he needs all the help from above that he can get.

Come on, Sinc! We are all praying for your speedy return to good health!
