:airplane: One of the things that I have been impressed with is the quality of the people who visit this forum! By and Large, the vast majority of people who post in here are stand up guys, with good intentions and advice for the other people in the game.
I am going through some serious problems with my wife's health right now and I am struck with admiration and respect for the number of people who have responded with nothing but friendship and morale support for me in this stressful time.
While I spend a lot of my day at the hospital right now, as soon as I get home, I find myself drawn to the forum and feel as though I am with friends, just like you guys were right here with me in my living room. It is hard for me to explain, but knowing that you guys have a love for aviation as I do, that promotes a kinship which is hard to find.
Thanks for being my friend!! :salute

Sorry to hear about your current circumstances. I had to deal with a similar issue and I know how important friends can be. Best wishes to you and your wife.

:airplane: Thanks for your comments! I just try to convey enough info so that a new player can enjoy the game!
What a great bunch of replies guys, I can't express my feelings right now as to how much I appreciate your support!

At times this community, and we in it, look pretty silly and we act...well, let's just say not as adults should. We probably wouldn't allow our kids to act the way we do. This is our world away from the real world. We all share a passion for the game and military history. We have more in common than some might think. When issues of the "real" world come up, and they do for all of us in some way, we come together and act as human beings should. :salute guys and gals!
-
I'm a sit down guy but good luck to you and your wife anyway.
-
Earl, You are experiencing what many of us have found when going through difficult times.... We are a community and we care about each other. Despite the silliness and bickering, everyone who can, will help pull your oar with you.
Nothing but good thoughts and blessings for your wife and you....

Agreed. We have a remarkable ability to comfort people we've never met, and probably never will. 'Twas once a big help to me. Hang tight there, Earl.

Earl, I'm sorry to hear about your wife. Health problems are maybe some of the worst things to deal with. There's nothing concrete, just odds, and that awful waiting. I truly do feel for you sir.
I'll include your wife and your family in my prayers tonight.

:airplane: No, I just didn't set one up because she wouldn't understand any of it. This heart attack finished her mind, and the only way I know she knows I am there with her, sometimes she will squeeze my hand.
Thanks again to all, your support and thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated. :salute :angel:

Definitely fools, I should have read the whole original post and avoided being one.

earl your a class act all the way and I have always admired and respected you not only for your actual military experience with these vintage aircraft that we all have so much interest in but the simple fact that your a good soul.
cheers mate hang in there. life can stop giving you things and start taking them away at any age as some of us have found. All we can do is hold on to the time we have and cherish every moment with our loved ones.

:airplane: Thanks for the kind words! A GREAT BIG THANKS TO ALL THE GUYS IN HERE WHO HAVE MY WIFE IN THEIR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS!!! She is doing better, actually sitting upright in hospital bed and is now talking a little and knew who I was when I walked into the room with her. She actually took the spoon and fed herself some bites of Turkey for lunch!
Guys, this just proves what prayer will do! The Doc's gave her about a 25% chance of getting through this thing, and she has a long way to go before I can bring her home, but at least now, I have HOPE for the future.
:salute to all!

Earl,
I want to thank you for the many years of friendship. You sir, have been an inspiration to my family and it's been an honor to fly with you and the "Devil Dog's". Please know the Lyn and I have prayed for you and Barb. Should you need anything, your friends will be there.
-
Like I said in the O'Club thread that was started in support of you, I hope for the best possible outcome for you and your wife. You're a great guy on the bbs here, and I especially enjoy your posts in the aircraft forum. I'm also dismayed by rule#4 violations in a thread like this...

Great news, Earl! :aok

Hey ET,
I just logged in the forums. Sorry to hear Barbara's not doing well. You are in the Rhino's families thoughts and prayers.
Hello to all D-Dogs.
