Hi all
I'm Chris, an old friend of jt's, and he asked me to post for him about recent events, and why he hasn't been a regular on the forum for a while.  Eight weeks ago John was admitted to hospital for an urgent operation to remove a blockage to his intestine.  He has only been conscious for the last 2 or 3, and up to then his condition was critical, with only 5% chance of survival at the worst point.  He's out of the ICU now and getting back to his old self slowly.  Physical recovery is going to take a few more months and a lot of physio, and he's a while off playing a guitar although I think it's a hot priority for him!  If you could post your wishes on this topic I could print it out and take it in for him - I know he would really appreciate it.  For those who may live near, he is in Heather Ward, King George's Hospital, Barley Lane, Goodmayes, Essex, visiting 2pm-8pm.  I'll keep you up to date with his progress.
Best regards
Chris

I'm truely sorry to hear that, please send him our best wishes for a rapid recovery.

If it helps in saying this, a friend of mine ended up with a knot in his intestine, and although it was touch and go for a while, he did make a complete recovery. I'm sure now the worst is over JT will be doing the same.
