Posted 17 June 2011 - 05:27 am

On Wednesday my son collapsed in an exam and was rushed to hospital and at present is now partially paralysed from the waist down.
I've been in and out of hospital since and still the docs don't know whats happening.
The reason for posting this here is because if things don't get better i'm not gonna be able to make this trip.

I am totally gutted but i have to put my son first as i'm sure you'll understand.

I'm struggling to get on here much but roughly there might be a place in hotels if anyone needs them and a chunnel ticket for Wednesday

I hope things change for my boy (and for me) will try and keep you all posted

Cheers

Moose

Have a chat to Nick, as we're meeting him anyway (I don't think he's booked any rooms yet) and it's too late to cancel/change the bookings without penalty.

Hope your boy's ok and on the mend. I'll ring you later.

Bugger, heres hoping he makes a full recover soon
(and u get some answers as to what & why it happened)
As Kaustic said, germany will still be there
Done: Homo sap navigation/ twisty thing on bars to make it go vroom/ grabby thing to make it stop (in front of twisty thing)/ 'leccy things front and rear to make it glow at night/ Sucky + drippy oiler thing to keep chains moist (!!) / Laser Pro Stock Race pipes / bleeding ear drums (see previous mod)
To do: Educate homo sap nav system to operate twisty + grabby things/ get ear plugs

All Trashed Now... Pants... its a Cat B Mwahahaha it lives again!!

Hope your son gets well soon. It's horrible when your kids are taken ill and hospitals can be very frustrating but he's in the best place and they'll take good care of him.
