A man that had come to mean a great deal to me has become gravely ill. His name is Andy Romack. Most know him as Groundhog and various other varmit aliases. I am not sure of the extent of the illness, or the prognosis, but I do know that God can and will heal. Lets all band together and get the prayers moving. Thank you.
Praying. thmbsup
Andy, we were good friends at one time, and I still wish to be your friend...please get well soon and be my friend again.
Ned
prayers sent, Please pass any info you get along.
Mike
Although I have never met Andy, I have corresponded with him a number of times. I consider him a good friend I hope someday to meet in person and pray for his recovery.
This is terrible news
Any word on his condition?
Not yet...Jean has called his home and will let us know what he finds out.
Ned
Sorry to hear about Andy's illness. Please keep us informed. At times like this differences should be set aside and folks should be united in prayers for healing.
i know i should probably edit this but i got an email this morning from andy and here it is
Thursday 6 52 am
Jean I honestly do not feel like talking to anyone ... right now.
The rumors are true and I am very sick ... more tests this morning and I have been bed ridden for days.
The internal bleeding may have slowed or stopped ... My Doctor thinks I tore or ripped something inside carrying logs out of the woods last Monday.
...an infection set in last week and almost killed me.
Currently the meds have me sick as well... the narcotic pain killer is playing mind games as well.
Recently with the death of my friend Tony and the games Sir Roaring Bull plays ...
and the fact that "YOU" decided to embrace Bull once again and for whatever reason hug Ned the dictator ... I am done with the internet forums scene.
Real life has me down right now...
Andy
Thank you Jean. Andy is still one of us and will receive the same respect as any member of either forum. Please continue your prayers and well wishes for his swift recovery.
Ned

heres a copy of an email from andy i got this morning.
jean
Well Jean gettin poked n prodded ...another test tomorrow and possible surgery tomorrow.
Blood loss had eased up, but it is now worse... much worse.
Bad pain in the small of my back on my left side ... constant.
I am not liftin no more heavy nuts ... them logs weighed close to 300 lbs.
two doctors have already said it could be cancer.
So I be a little more than just nervous... but not scared
I have a firm belief in GOD and he will care for me.
Rather die in a good fire-fight or plain out war.
Andy
Thanks, Jean.
Thank you Jean.
Ned
when i wrote back i sent prayers, and asked if there was anything i could do. also offered him that fire-fight he mumbled about
Did that cheer him up any?
Ned
dont know yet. i guess i'll find out. worse ways to go than a fire-fight with a friend
Tat's how I would like to go.

Run bull like you're running from an alligator -- zig zag. See if Jean can lead you enough for a hit. devel
Hmmm seems like we drifted off topic but I am sure it would amuse Andy. Pray he gets better soon.
Good news from Andy.....
