Francis Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Haven't been on here since selling my 350Z (and forgot my log in, it's Z Boy) but just been told about this by Jay C and had to post up and wish Phil, Andrew and all of your family the best. I can't believe such a nasty thing would happen to such a top guy. Thanks again for all the help you guys up there gave me everytime I came up to ESR and for making us feel welcome etc., I really hope he makes a good recovery.

Wez21 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Sorry to hear this Andrew, but good news to a well deserved man! It was very empty without you and your Dad there yesterday. Having met him a few times and pestered him on the phone too I truely wish him well! The North East has some of the very best hospitals around. My thoughts and regards to you and your family.

Nigelp Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Blimey ! Just seen this thread ! I was supposed to be taking my Zed for a P2 on Thursday, I rang Andrew to confirm yesterday, he said they had some issues, but I didn`t realise it was anything as serious as this. I hope everything works out for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyvvc Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Both myself and Lydia are stunned at this news, and wish Phil a speedy recovery. We were only up at ESR a few weeks back getting bits on the 350 done. All the best to you Andrew, and the family. We're all rooting for Phil!

bigphil Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 Hi guys, great news today, and a massive relief for the family, phil was taken off the sedation and when you speak to him he opens his eyes, he can hear, and can move his hands and feet. Not phenomenal progress, but we are just soo thankful he is alive and now able to hear us and we can look into his eyes, i have never cried as much as when i looked into my fathers eyes after thinking i would never again get the chance. the doctors say it will be up and down, and he is far from out of the woods, but that small bit of progress is the best news and most relief i have ever felt in my life. Thanks for all the support, i have never had soo many offers of gifts, help, friendly chats and of course just support in all my life, you guys are like friends to us, and we just can't thank you all enough for your support, phil will be soo touched and soo uplifted by all of the messages. We are trying to give the usuall standard of service that we always have, but at this time i hope you understand if things take slightly longer or we can't give definative answers, and of course any problems please don't hesitate to call me, it's what we are here for. Thanks, Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Fantastic news Andrew. I must say I'm relieved. I can't imagine what you guys have been going through. You've been throuh a lot these last few days. Well, best wishes to Phil and the rest of the family and hope the recovery starts soon. It's not going to be an easy road for any of you but at least you know you have a lot of support and friends. Just think what Phil could do with the GTR if all the offers of gifts came in as vouchers for car parts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
