Hi all.... a quick update on Footy's progress, I had a get
well card to deliver today....(Sorry Sir Kev, but no
pic of me on the Postie..... LOL)... I didn't get to see him 'cos at present they're only letting family members in to visit, but I did speak to his nurse and she told me that he is improving slowly, a little better than last week. I passed on all our wishes and she promised to relay the message.
Anyone who wants to send get
well cards, address them;
"
Footloose"
C/O Chill-Zone Refrigeration
PO Box 2943
Nerang
Qld 4211
and we will see that he gets them.
Cheers
Brian

Hello Brian,
Yes, the card was from me.
I'm having troubles with my member messages and can't reply to them for some reason. Thank you very much for delivering the card and for keeping us up to date with Footy's progress.
All the best
Viv

G/Day Brian
I spoke to Mrs Footy on the 6th July, and asked if it would be ok to
check with her in a couple of weeks, re his progress ect, she was fairly busy as one would expect, we also want to confirm if he has a Laptop so Sir Kev can organise with Members re chipping in and getting one if he hasn't one, I'll try tomorrow to make contact some time, she usually at the JF Hospital in the mornings, so I'll phone in the afternoon, he is a very popular fellow and the phone hasn't stopped,and I feel she needs a bit of space.
PS. Thanks for your current update.
Cheers

Daza,
From what we (Mark G and I) have found out Footy does not have a Lap Top, so we will organise something soon.
Cheers Kev

Thanks Kev
Let me know how much you want re: the Contribution for the Lap Top and what ever is needed to keep it running for a while, maybe Brian could find out what facilities they have for Lap Tops at the JF Hospital?

Spoke to Mrs Footy last night, the laptop is a bit beyond him currently, but he seems to be getting better day by day.

Wonderful news Brian.
Is he still in the induced coma, or have things gone beyond that?
Cheers,
Jim.

Brian,
Can you tell that nurse to tell Footy to take his time getting
well so I can organise that photo of you on the Postie bike ;)
Cheers Kev

I sent a card & enclosed in it a copy of all of the responses up to about midday Monday last week from the original post by
John letting us know he had some misfortune, and posted it that arvo addressed to the hospital. I just wrote a get well message & signed it "from your friends at EO.
Thanks for the update Brian.

That's wonderful Barry, I was wondering if anyone had already done that. I was thinking of it, but wanted to make sure I wasn't doubling up. I'm sure he will appreciate it!

G'day Brian
Thanks for the update mate. I've been away for the past week so really appreciate the info. Seems Footy is getting lots of attention and when he wakes he will be busting a gut to get out and about again.
Again thanks for keeping EO advised of his progress.
Cheers

I've never met
Footloose, however I was looking through another
Forum today (LCOOL) and his situation was mentioned. It was also mentioned that he was a published author so I did a little Googling and found this:
Site Link
He seems to be a very talented man.
It always surprises me how many times someone pops up and there is quite a story behind them.
It's a shame to see such an intelligent person laid low in such a way but I'm sure that the resourcefulness and talent that he has will get him over this present situation.
Good luck to you Jim and best wishes.
