    what you have said here is very true, Sp has been thru the battles, an right now hes battleing for his life. I truely have the utt most respect for the man, and as sick as he has been the last couple of mths,.....speakeing for myself, i miss the talks we have,thru every conversation it seemed like i was always learning something new....Sp is one of the few,that a man can trust, an he wont lie to benifit form your mistake..he would teach.....I to try to do the same, i dont claim to know it all, but i can say this......when i screwed it up i gave it 110%, an sometimes , i do such a good job, i need someone to help me unscrew it........

    I don't even know what to say... <sigh>

    SP and his family continue to be in my prayers. May the Lord give them strength to endure whatever may be ahead and instill peace in their hearts...
     
    Big Don and dino6960 Thank this.

    I think sp is in everyones hearts and prayers here. We are all pulling for him. I just don't know about this hospital and the care he is given. One minute they want to release him and the next minute he is having a stroke. Either they don't really care or don't have a clue to his real condition. If I was there I would be mad just like Mrs sp. The poor lady is going through alot right along with her husband. sp has been fighting hard and I pray he can get by this yet one more hurdle. :(
