I am in dismay over what has happened here and don't understand what I can say anymore . I do not want to be chastised for what I post . This will be my last attempt to find out if anyone does or does not want to know how Sniper is doing . He has been in the hospital because of his heart and what he has said to me makes me fear about how serious it is . If anyone cares let me know . I think that he thinks no body does . I just want to know if he is right or wrong . So I will post this as a poll .

Very well said Dawg. And I think your words are what most on the forum feel for Sniper too! He is very loved here and I hope he will return also. And do not mind at all. Hugs!

Heya,

It would be insane to think that anyone here doesnt care about Sniper, quite the opposite. Everyone loves Sniper. He is a major backbone to the comunity. His stories and humor in the face of all his nightmares is amazing.

We could all learn something from him, and have, and I hope will continue to do so.

I love the Snipeman and my prayers go out to him and his family, if he is reading this then take heart my friend, I would guess there are 1000's if not more people on this forum who love sniper.

If you had titled your post "Who loves Sniper", I bet it would go off the rictor scale.

I miss Sniper and I don't want anything bad to ever happen to him or any of you.

I really hope we hear from him soon

Thanks

Jon

Eveofs, how is Sniper doing?

I think it is fair to say we all love and miss him and his wit!

Any illness can be terrifying to deal with but I believe that heart troubles can be especially frightening mainly I think in part because it is what almost makes us(and keeps the body going)

Sniper has a big heart and this shows through the strength in his posts and his wit through adversity. He (and his wife) have had so/too much to deal with but they are fighters and I so hope that whatever he is going through proves to be a minor blip and that he will soon return  

((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Sniper and Mrs Sniper)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))  <3 <3

eveofs - honest answer is of course we want to know how Sniper is doing and we hope and pray that he is doing well. Please don't try to take a poll/thread in attempt to measure that desire. This appears to be a very fluid time for this forum, and people are taking multi-day breaks for reading/posting. I don't think you are going to get a true measure, if such a thing can truly be measured.

You have posted in several threads and received several responses from a lot of different people in each thread from folks here saying that we want to know, yes please, give us an update. tsitodawg is absolutely correct in his comments, and many have already chimed in here in agreement.

The other part of my honest answer is that you have been very unrevealing in any information you have so far. You have stated that you believe he is doing worse than he has let on, and often barely saying that much. This is the very first time that I am reading that he is back in the hospital.

Whether you devulge more details or not, please let him know that he is in the prayers and thoughts of his healingwell family.

clonehead , I have not tried to be vague . Knowing what I do about him I believe he would try to make me laugh with his last breath . He only said his heart was more damaged than he though and he didn't think he was needed here anymore because of some trouble . He did not say what was the trouble . He said he needed to look after what was left of himself because he would not except another's heart . The new models are cheaply made . He said he would rather spend the money on his harley . They are going to run more tests next week so he would be away for a while . Then he said not to worry because his to do list was so long he would have to live another 100 years to be finished and the guy with horns would never let him leave chores undone .
I will let you come to your own conclusion . I want to send this post to him . I can't repay him and his wife for what they have done for me but I am trying to help if I can . Thank you for adding to it .

Eve, I have sent Sniper an email, not sure if he is getting email, but let him know it is waiting for him and that he and his bride are in my thoughts.

OBG yes. HE sounds like he is really down which happens with heart disease. He has been so vital here. People care about him deeply and enjoy his posts and sense of humor. Thoughts and many prayers for his recovery!!!!!!

Eveofs, please let Sniper know that although he does not know me, I hope he returns to the forum here as his presence is most wanted and needed. I wish him and his lovely wife all the best.

Thanks for posting :).

Of course, we all want to know how Sniper and Camilla are doing! I fail to see why you would think otherwise or feel the need for this poll! Please share my (our) love and best wishes to him and Camilla. This must be an especially rough time for her as well. To see a loved one suffer is excruciating, to face the risk of losing that loved one terrifying.

I sure miss Snipers posts. I always looked forward to his humor. It's just not the same without him. I only wish the best for him and his family. Please keep us posted on his condition, thank you! Kathy

I have been posting/reading here quite frequently here lately since the fall but for some reason I missed all of this. Of course, we care about him and for me everyone on this forum. I am so sorry for his heart problems. Sniper I hope you are reading how much everyone cares and supports you. Please if you feel like it let us know how you are doing.
