gran Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 Good on ya AJ keeps my faith in our species with guys like you around mate ! Keep topping up the good karma people +1000
astonjenks Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 Thanks guys Its the least I could do as Micky does my watches and as in the film 'As good as it gets' (one of my favourites) I only did it for selfish reasons :-) All joking aside Micky has told me his Mum had a cup of tea last night which is excellent news! AJ
Nanuq Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 That's fantastic news AJ. I've been through this for the last year with my dad, made 6 emergency flights to go see him on death's door, and he's still here. So I'm intimately familiar with what this means to Micky and his family, and what you've done for him. He will never forget it. This is what makes this place great. We few, we happy few, we band of brothers.
Nanuq Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 Pffffft! Maybe for that pansy Aston you drive! Now my Land Rover on the other hand....
astonjenks Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 Exactly. I had to drop off my Casino Royale DBS yesterday and this is what they gave me to use (better their car than mine for the mileage) Its a new DB9 Volante, too cold and windy for roof down though:-) AJ
Nanuq Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 Too cold? I'd have the top down at 0F in that beauty! Here's my convertible...
astonjenks Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 I would but it would have messed Micky's hair up! Oh wait a minute he doesnt have any :-) too much noise at 110! AJ
SSTEEL Posted May 6, 2015 Author Report Posted May 6, 2015 Thanks so much Andy for everything, you are a diamond mate, I cannot thank you enough!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
SSTEEL Posted May 6, 2015 Author Report Posted May 6, 2015 Damn, pressed submit instead if return! Update: I spent last night at my mothers bedside, she does not look well at all, she can't open her eyes, and can't speak properly, I told her I was there whilst holding her hand, she gripped my hand and whispered, love you. She managed to drink some more water. I spoke to her consultant but he couldn't give a forecast on how long she has left, he was hopeful that her liver and kidneys are ok. She's not eating at all though. I will be going back to stay with her tomorrow as I didn't sleep at all last night whilst I was with her. Will update you a further soon.

astonjenks Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 You're welcome Micky Delighted we got you there safely and in time. My thoughts are with you and your family. AJ
Stephane Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 Once again, our thoughts are with you and yours. It's a terrible experience to loose a mum. It's even worse to see her decline and approach the inevitable. I will not pray as I'm no believer but I will multiply my thoughts of you and her. Warm regards, Stephane
Nanuq Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 I think this says a lot about what Micky is going through, and how you guys are holding him up as he holds his family up.
dieselpower Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 Great quote 'Nook. I once heard Maya Angelou talking and she said when times get tough she remembers that her mum told her "It takes pressure to make diamonds". @ ssteel, glad you made it in time. I feel there is another diamond in the making. 1
droptopman Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 What an awesome community, here to support each other. Proud to be part of it.
stray_cat Posted May 6, 2015 Report Posted May 6, 2015 You are blessed that you made it as I was right as my Dad passed. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers...
