Talked to him Tue AM for 45 Seconds. He sounded like the 95 lb pound version of himself.

Eric, I miss you. Hope you feel better really soon.

I really wish there was something I could do for you. Please let me know if we can help in any way. Do you have grass that needs mowing? Anything? Can I pay someone to look for ticks for you?

Fellas, I'm kicking off round 2 of the plate passin, It's all I know to do for now:
"You have sent $100.00 USD to dragr@charter.net. An email will be sent to the recipient."

Get well eric.

Been gone all weekend, just received the most recent $200 in Paypals. Thanks once again guys. I'm gonna try to contact Eric today, hopefully he is doing well. Eric has told me that the money everyone has donated has been a really big help.

Im currently in Neuro-ICU at UAB in Bham, a long way from home and no visitors, gets pretty lonely. But they let me break my laptop out every now and again, shhh.
I have mold, that's right mold, growing in my CSF now. The shunt had to be removed until they can get me well (over 10 days, don't know exactly). After that i get another shunt.
thanks for everything you guys are doing, its keeping me above water during a very hard time. yall are the best!

Glad to hear from you. We're praying for you every day. Tell them to use a factory Toyota shunt next time instead of that aftermarket junk!

***Side note*** (probably too late now) if you had told them you were an alcoholic at check-in, hospitals will prescribe you beer. The one my wife worked at gave out Milwaukee's Best

Keep us posted

Eric,
Don't know you, never met you, but if you own a Land Cruiser we share a common bond.
I just want you to know that I am praying for your speedy recovery.
Hang in there, rest up and get well.

From the sound of things, it better be a medium.

Hope it's turning around for you soon, E.

I talked with Eric today. He still has the mold in his cerebral fluid. They are upping the antibiotics he's taking and will be there at least 2 more weeks. After the mold is taken care of, then they will install another shunt and he'll be back at home. He's at UAB Medical Center in Birmingham in the Neuro ICU. He doesn't feel like getting on the internet, says he very tired all the time, and he will answer his phone every once in a while. We don't need to ring his phone off the hook though. If anyone is in Birmingham, visiting hours are 10 am, 2pm, and 4pm.

As you know he's been out of work for quite a while now and he has told me to sell his Cruiser for him. I'll be posting it up tonight, but if you know anyone interested, he'd like to get $5000.

That SUCKS! I really wish he would keep the Cruiser. He's going to get better. I just know it. Eric, you have no option. Now quit screwing around and get better!! Damnit! What do you need for us to do to be able to keep your Cruiser?
