FEBRUARY UPDATE ON "THE SEEKER"

John had a stroke this morning.....The seeker, he is in surgery as I write, please all say a pray for him.
i will update as I know more

UPDATE: I have spoke with his wife and he is out of surgery and doing pretty well. Had alot of blockage which if anyone who knows John was a very healty person, non smoker ect. He is speaking and has movement in both legs and arms, fingers and toes. He is in ICU so I cannot go up there, still criticle for another 48 hrs. Thanks to all for your response, John is a hugh contributor to this site and of course my best friend so we need him back out and swinning the dectetor, i will make surre of that even if I have to dig the holes.. His wife said he wants to call me later tonight so I will keep all posted to any further developments.
Thanks, Jeff ;D

The 8pm update: Spoke with Johns wife and other then a few minor complications doing well, he has a phone but cannot us it just yet as he has to be flat on his back and very still. I told his wife that I had a post out and all of the TNET family is wishing him well and she will pass this on to him. i will continue to update tomorrow as I know with the emails I am getting alot want to know the progress. That really all I have for now and dont know what else I can do, My friend is down and I feel kinda helpless at this point.
THANKS TO ALL AGAIN..When he gets home it will take him awhile to read all the threads on this post.
Jeff :-X ;D

Spoke to John this morning, he is doing well and will be back out swinging in no time. He recovered very well and was thrilled about how many people sent him well wishes after I told him. He was lucky to get to the right hospital at the right time. I know when he gets home and sees for himself all of everyones threads on here it will really pick him up as this hobby and this site is a passion of his, I know for myself and many others that I have heard from that he is always helpfull and supportive to this hobby.
Thanks to all,
Jeff

MONDAY 7PM- John is doing well and waiting to be releast either tonight if not to late or first thing tomorrow morning. He caanot wait to get home and get out the lap top. He will be back on TNET. Has some recovery to do so will have some time. Watch for him and he cannot wait to speak to everyone who has sent messages.
Thanks to all: Jeff

Wednesday..Had lunch with John today at his house, He looks good and I can tell you that he will be out in no time diggin and doing those excellent posts again. He said he will try and get on here tonight. From here on out my updates are done as John will be joining us soon.
Thanks, Jeff

FEB 2nd- Sorry it has taken so long to update, I thought by now john would have started to come back to the site. I have recieved alot of emails from everyone so I felt I should update. John is doing very well and the doctors say 60-90 days take it easy and heal then he can do his bowling and we can go DIGGIN. I cannot explain why he has not been on the site but he does ask me what has been happening on here. I want to thank everyone again for the concern, If you ever met John in person you would want him as a friend for life. I will get his AS.. back on here soon.
