Surgery, and the site on hold.

[ASSEMbler]

I've found out that my accident injuries require surgery, and soon.

All site and ebay related activities will be on hiatus.
The procedure has a 4-6 month recovery period, with
around 40 days in bed.

In the meantime I will be leaving Paulo in charge of the forums.

This is in effect immediately.

Good luck. Hope the recovery goes smoothly.

[mairsil]

Hopefully not a dangerous surgery, just a long (and peaceful) recovery. And if it is back/neck surgery like I suspect it may be, whatever you do DON'T try to use a laptop or cell phone while recovering.

[Tchoin]

Ugh, looks like some really serious surgery, hope everything turns out well and that you have a smooth recovery.

Best wishes!

[z_killemall]

Wow, don't know what to say... At least you found it before it could turn into something worse.

Best of luck and I hope you recover well, try to get some rest and avoid worrying about anything, you know you put the boards in good hands.

[Yakumo]

Bloody hell.

Get better soon!

[Borman]

Good luck assembler. My dad had major back surgery a few years back, trying to find the xray but its pretty crazy.

[Johnny]

Hope you have a good surgery and recovery.

[Tomcat]

Gutted for you but wish you a speedy recovery.

[VMS]

We're here for you, mate. Hope you have some nice nurses.

[WolverineDK]

ASSEMbler: my neighbour is going to get the same surgery sooner or later depending of how much crap the doctors will do before hand. So good luck mate, and hopes for a great recovery.

[Parris]

Wouah, I had a quick look at the procedure, I understand now why the recovery period is so long!!!

All the best for the op, you must be in a serious amount of pain to go for that, I'm sure everything will go just fine :thumbsup:

[cez]

Hope everything goes well with the surgery. Take it easy.

Good luck and get well soon.

Just don't ask them if they want to see your TOOL. Unlike members of this forum, the nurses might take it the wrong way! ;)

[Ed the Nerd]

Get well soon

[Nitro734]

I watched the videos, and that surgery looks pretty major. I'm no doctor, but that doc in that video was poking at things in the spinal nerve column just to identify it to the camera audience - maybe ask that your surgery isn't recorded on video for general public consumption :)

[SilverBolt]

Best of luck, try and keep in touch when you can

[ASSEMbler]

Thanks for all the kind words. This is the third, and hopefully final surgery
to fix the problem. This time it's nuclear strength. I will either triumph or
be an invalid, but I need to see where my path lies.

[karsten]

damn serious, then! O_O good luck, really

[babu]

sounds pretty bad. =/
best of luck kev.

[MitsuruX]

Hope everything goes well.. you'll be in our thoughts and prayers..

[ave]

Yeah, good luck man! Hope you'll be alright soon.

[handofg0d]

Best wishes to you during your surgery, and recovery!

[Ollie]

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

[kammedo]

You'll do just fine. take something with you to keep you busy. Best of luck!

Hang in there Kev, you'll pull through.

Anyone heard anything from Kevin yet? Read on his twitter he had a major operation yesterday. I really hope he's fine.

[Paulo]

Nope and i dont think he will be on for the next few days.
