    Prayers for full recovery and well being. I know that feeling too. Few years back I was in AL heading to TX and get a call from my step-daughter that her and my wife were in the ambo from a car wreck. Talk about nerve wracking.
     
    JohnBoy Thanks this.

    Wow! That must have been extremely difficult for both you and Lesli, JB! I'm glad to hear that she will be ok.You must have aged a few years from the experience, huh?! I will keep her (you also) in my prayers for a rapid recovery. It really does speak volumes of Abilene and Tim that they were so supportive. That's great!
     
    JohnBoy Thanks this.

    Hey guy's, first off, thank you all for the get well wishes. Lesli is on the mend, albeit another test today. She wanted to know how it's possible I had so many friends....lol. Thank you all, and Abilene.

    We left our drop at 5am after we got done in Elizabethhtown, Pa. Tuesday. On our way back to Richmond our reload assignment came over the QC. It was a load sitting on the yard going to Fort Lauderdale for Wednesday at 8am. We got back to Richmond at noon, Kellan did the drop and hook while I went in to talk to a few people, then we left. We got to our Drop Wednesday at 8am and was empty at 9am. I dropped Kellan off then went home. We are scheduled to leave back out Sunday. Right now I'm trying to get my wife and our home back on track. God Bless all, be safe.
     
    jlind, jungHo, FLATBED and 1 other person Thank this.

    Got my reload info. Have to load Monday morning at 8am in Savanah going to Richmond. Was also told to drop it at the yard and will be going to the NW. We will be leaving about 9pm Sunday night for the 425 mile deadhead.

    On a more comical note, my wife and I have an over and under bet, I say her overnight hospital stay last week was under 10K, she says it was over. That doesn't include the tests we had done this week since I've been home. Healthcare in this country is a very sore subject with me. My wife and I are very fortunate to have very good health coverage. Most people don't. I just hope one day healthcare in this country will be affordable and available to every US citizen in this country.

    Everyone :biggrin_2559: about Canada but your bill for all of that in Ontario Canada would be only $25.00 to $50.00 ambulance charge and whatever MEDS needed that's not covered under their FREE PROVINCIAL HEALTH COVERAGE.
     
    JohnBoy Thanks this.

    Maybe we need to send more doctors over to Africa and treat all the Ebola cases for free and charge all the US patients here in the states $490 to hook up an IV. Oh, please, my bad, they already are doing it.
