Title: Anyone heard from Roadman?
Post by: Cuda Cody on May 23, 2017, 09:52:30 AM
Anyone heard from Mark @Roadman (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/roadman_17) lately?  He's been pretty quite lately and just want to make sure he's doing okay?

I expect he's dealing with his mom again, or still. She was getting Alzheimer's and they were trying to get her in somewhere but she didn't want to go. He had moved in with her to look after her. This is as best as I can recall from when I saw him in January.

Now mind you, he did also say that they were going to get some street time in with Toxic's wicked Challenger.  :thinking:

I have been wondering the same about Mark. I sure hope it is that Toxic Wolf has been working him overtime.  :notsure:

Thank you so much for checking in on him.  I truly hope it's not serious and that he'll be okay.  He's a great guy and we miss him.  Let him know we're here for him if there is anything we can do.

Mark has had problems with circulation in his legs for some time now.  It had gotten worse lately.  I spoke to him today and he said they would be moving him to a hospital that has a Vascular Surgeon that can help him with the problem.  He has undergone a lot of testing and there is more in his future.  He said to tell all of you that he really appreciates your thoughts and prayers.

He said most important was for you guys to keep "Sugar and Spice" up and running.   :yes:
Title: Re: Anyone heard from Roadman?
Post by: Topcat on May 27, 2017, 07:20:58 PM
O.K. I think I know what this is.   :thinking:

arteriosclerosis

degenerative changes in the arteries, characterized by thickening of the vessel walls and accumulation of calcium with consequent loss of elasticity and lessened blood flow.

Hope they get Mark all fixed up soon.
Title: Re: Anyone heard from Roadman?
Post by: ToxicWolf on May 27, 2017, 07:36:18 PM
Hi Topcat.  I talked to him today and he got moved into the new hospital.  He said they will tell him when the surgery will be sometime tomorrow.

Talked to Roadman tonight.  He's having trouble posting with the Hospital wifi, but he's thinking about everybody here and looking forward to when he can get out and get involved again.  His surgery is scheduled for Monday.  I don't know the time yet, but it looks like a vein graph and they will have to take off one of his big toes.  All and all, he is in great spirits and just looking forward to getting it over-with and back to work.  I'll let you know what I fined out.

             Thank you all for keeping me  in your thoughts.  Had some complications after the surgery, had to go back in for awhile.  This really took alot out of me and I'm very limited on what I can psyically do now. All this after 65 years of never a health issue. And I have some additional problems they found while I was in there I'm going to have to deal  with. So I've been really depressed but I'm starting to snap  out of it. Anyway, I'll check in as often as possible. Thank you all again, it really means alot.    :grouphug:
