    Default JOHN SPACE TRUCKER UPDATE

    Hi all,

    I had a chance to talk with John today. He had to go back into surgery to have some leaks fixed in his new heart. His speech was clear and his sense of humor as sharp and quick as ever. He is feeling much better but still confined to a bed. His left side is fine but the right side is very affected and he has limited movement. However, the prognoses is much better and he has decided not to sell his Spyder. Once he gets off all the tubes and stuff, he will go to the Rockford Rehab Center back east. He doesn't know how long before he can come back home to Oregon. It was wonderful to hear my friend laugh and swear again. Please keep John and his family in your prayer. I will pass on new info as I get it.

    Ride in comfort,

    John
