Title: A Flight Simmer Could Use Some Support..Carrot is trouble
Post by: hardcase on September 26, 2002, 11:55:57 AM
I am taking the liberty to post here cause I think some of you know Carrot, Barry Hayes, or have flown with him. It is in the middle of another bout of a Brain Tumor and is back in the hospital. If you can take the time, post some good thoughts here and Torgen will grab, and get to Mama Carrot. This is copied for our beta page..


Guys, I think Barry is going to need some morale boosting. This thing is kicking his bellybutton at the moment. The previous painkillers are now ineffective, and they are trying to find something that works. He's in hospital, and they are having to knock him out so he can get some sleep.
Latest from Mama Carrot:

After yesterday seeming so much better, he had a bout of pain this morning, following what seems to have been a roughish night. We went along this morning and he seemed to be coming right again. Went away for lunch, then came back for a while, still apparently OK so headed off for a quick visit to a friend who was in the main part of Mercy Hospital after knee surgery and then when we got back to see Barry again he was in the throes of one of his worst yet sessions. Took them nearly two hours and a cocktail of drugs to finally get him settled. We have just come home leaving him sound sleep. They asked if we wanted to stay all night but felt if he was going to be kept mostly asleep maybe we would do better getting some sleep ourselves. They have my phone number if we are needed/wanted. Looks like we might be in for a day or two of not so good as they get the painkillers sorted out and at a level in his system. Feel so helpless, but they certainly didn't mess around and were doing so much for him - thank goodness he is there and not at home!!

Will further update tomorrow
Regards - Jill


I told her that I'd collect messages from the boys (and girls) here and forward them. Reply in this thread, and I'll send them to Mama Carrot and she can print them out and read them to Barry.
--------------------------------------


New Zealand has not step up and payed for his chemo which is about 2k a month US. We are taking donations thru Pay Pal to help every month. First month didnt cost his family a nickel, and with luck when he goes home and starts another, they wont pay a cent then. If the treatment works everyone believes the NZ gov will step up. Seems kinda dollar cruel. .. This wasnt a post for money, just give a post to raise some spirits.

If you want to donate $5 or whatever here is the link..hope it works...This is Alan Hayes's site, he is Barry's brother.

Hey Hardcase..I can't input my country in the pay-pal thingy.

E-mail me an address...I'll send a money order or something.

Hell yah..life is a whole lot more important than a game.  My mother had brain cancer...so I have an idea of what this is all about.

Will do. I'll track someone down that knows their RL addy. They may not want to give it out..you know how cruel the net can be. If they dont, it is the thought that counts.  Thanks either way


Extremely sorry to hear that about your Mom. :(I hope good was the outcome?

So imo, see how much money you can raise from all those wwiiol players you brag are still there. All those mac members, maybe? See, this is how a bad rep comes back to haunt ya.

The only one you hurt with that post is you. You really cannot be that inexperinced in life. I only hope you are a child.

a waste of time and saying the obvious..to all but you ..

Son, there are games and there is real life. Someone I and quite possibly many in AH, have flown with in wbs and fought with and against in ww2ol is in a fight for his life. He has an inoperable brain tumor. The Chemo has caused something that is giving him so much pain he most be sedated to unconscienous. Many of US have cancer, are fighting the aftermath, so many of US have lost loved ones. There is so little that we can do. The only thing I can do for Carrot, is to help take the financial burden off of his family. I will do this every month till the NZ gov steps up.

Damn you piss me off. :mad:

saving your post. Someday, somewhen.

As for the "spamming" just an OT subject about the sim I play. About 6 of us and you.


hardcase

:mad:

Fishu said it in a more calm mood. I am not Carrot. "just tell him hey" I will.
Title: A Flight Simmer Could Use Some Support..Carrot is trouble
Post by: Fishu on September 26, 2002, 04:30:41 PM
Braz,

That is incredibly rude and unconsiderate from you.

Because you don't like Hardcase, you don't like Carrot either, whos played lots of sims and is very respectable person.
He is whole other person than Hardcase.

I hope you will never suffer the same Carrot has and is suffering.

Hopefully you won't be either going through the same Hardcase has gone through and still is.

Hopefully the life will mature you in more considerate way.

Wow guys... way to give a troll legitamacy... in stereo at that.

Though...

I don't remember Carrot being a part of the AH community.  This is one of the first thoughts I had when I saw Hardcase's post here and on AGW.  

While I whish him the best of luck in his current battle, I'm still somewhat stricken by the idea that the first time I've heard mention of him was with a pay-pal link in the thread.  Maybe just a "if you'd like to help, let me know and I'll send you information".

It just struck me as odd... no matter how needed.

AKDejaVu
P.S.  I really do hope carrot recovers.

Hardcase,

 If you read this please email me at spmcnulty@austin.rr.com .  I don't have any credit cards or stuff like that but I'd like to send him a little to help.  Do you by chance know of a snail mail address that could be used?


thanks....

and Braz,  boy you sure are a piece of toejam of a human being.  I hope nothing like this ever happens to you or anybody you love....

 Everything seems to be doing alright.  The depression has come back a bit in the past few days. But that is because I went over to my ex-girlfriend's house.  The same one that I broke up with in such a manner that she didn't talk to me for 3 months and says I have no chance now.  The same girlfriend who went from 140lbs to 115 and looks like a super model now :D :mad: :confused: :eek: :rolleyes:

 Other than that everything is hunky dorry :)  all surgery wounds are healed and I still have a job so life goes on :)

Well Braz. You win Moron of the Year. Congratulations on being so pitifully sad. Your not even worth ragging on little man.


TO Carrot.

A friend of mine has just went though a Brain Tumor.  He thankfully  is recovering well after a long hard road. Not only for himself but his very brave family of wife son and daughter. 2 of the best kids I have ever known. All looked after well by a husband and mate who made it back to us. He never gave in.

I remember Carrot and his toons from the WW2OL BBS tho ive never had any direct contact with him.  Good Luck to you Carrot and to your family. I sincerly hope you and your family remain strong and wish you the very best.

Pay no attention to fools who have little comprehension of the battle you are fighting.
Title: A Flight Simmer Could Use Some Support..Carrot is trouble
Post by: Braz on September 26, 2002, 07:15:05 PM
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You don't know me or my medical condition, headcase and others. And you won't, because I would never use these forums for that purpose. I just got outta surgery, with plenty more to come. So keep it to yourself. Your rep is wrecked, imo.

BTW, ask Carrot where he got the art for his wwiiol comics SC. If ya don't know what your talking about, it looks bad.

Title: A Flight Simmer Could Use Some Support..Carrot is trouble
Post by: Torgen on September 26, 2002, 07:22:14 PM
Brazos,  after reading your post, I registered on this board just to post this:

Carrot has been a part of the online flight sim scene for years, back when AW and WB were the only games in town. Many of those folks have moved on to other games. That is the only reason HC posted here, in case some of the folks that knew him weren't flying WB or "that other game" and hadn't heard about what he is going through. I won't go into the details since you wouldn't care.

Consider our friendship over.


(edit) Why don't you mention that he specifically asked your permission to carry on your strip after you gave up, and you granted it to him? What a pathetic cheap shot.

-Torgen out.

I dont know anything about Carrot Braz, but regardless of who or what the man is like, im sure his family think of him differently and as yours may be, in a different kind of pain where any support is appreciated.

Had I known of your condition, whatever it might be, I would offer and do offer you the same support.  Its the decent thing to do, whether I know you or not and helps us all in the end be more thoughtful of others in more dire predicaments than ourselves currently find us in.

I wish carrot the best of luck with his treatment.

If I had a positive cash flow I'd certainly donate $5, but I'm sorry to say that I genuinely cannot afford even that right now.

I hope he gets better.

Deja, Animal bad call guys. Carrot was an early WBer, there are a lot of old fart WBers here. Carrot and Raxx were in CK (WB beta) when I arrived, and were the only other Kiwis in there for some time.

While =hard= and I may slog it out over WW2OL, I flew alongside =hard= many times as a Frog in WB. I have the a lot of respect for him and I can assure you hes not toejamting you (even though hes been obviously been brainwashed by CRS :D ).

There are a lot of old fart WBers here who are happy to help out AND happy for Hard to ask. Please do not confuse that squeak-fight monster WW2OL thread with a guy trying to do a good thing.

Hard, $5 on the way from moi, being a fellow Kiwi, a fellow WBer, and having a mother been through chemo I can sympathize with Carrot even though I didn't know him that well.

Vulcan- maybe, but then again, desite what lil' soap operas happen on the UBB, there's still people on the i-net who play the sucker card for money.

"I'm in debt for 30+ grand because I'm an idiot, please send me money"

Ring a bell? Should, someone has a website setup for helping her get her debt straight and according to the website it happened.


I flew CK .94 until 1.11r3... he may be more familiar to you, but he isn't to me. And he isn't very likely familiar to DJ either (another old timer).

Just saying, they (Animal and DJ) aren't all that out of line... this IS the internet.

Then your memory needs an upgrade DejaVu.  Carrot DID in fact, fly AH in the early days, up to tour 7 or 8 I believe.

But hell, he don't fly AH no more, so why should you give a toejam, right?
Title: A Flight Simmer Could Use Some Support..Carrot is trouble
Post by: Vulcan on September 27, 2002, 03:31:05 AM
Absolutely agree on the scam things SW, they are a dime a dozen these days. But if you're not sure on one like this its best to let it lie rather than make a less than positive comment. Carrot was involved in the very early CKs, I think I came in at about 0.83, and he was getting less involved then, hence I didn't know him that well but got too know Raxx better. I believe Carrot and Raxx have been involved with HT a lot in their betas, both AH and WB.

I was just saying 'bad call', coz I know hard, and I know of Carrot. I also know DJ and Animal are good sorts and thats why I only said 'Bad call' and the rest of my comments are just to let you guys know Hard would be on the level. :)

Hardcase...  I hate to agree with Deja, but this is the internet after all.  Maybe you could get "Jill" to provide the Hospital (apparently Mercy) along with the city address and even a phone number.  Anyone doubting the reality of the situation could call to verify.  Hospitals don't make a big secret out of "who" is in what room usually.

That comment, was in the middle of being so pissed. Painting with broad brushes is wrong. I know quite a few ppl who fly AH and I would wing with em anytime. Braz just grabbed me the wrong way.

I assumed wrong that Carrot was known more

First, considering your obvious self absorbed agenda to post on the AH BBS ranting about WWIIOL mostly for your own entertainment in responces, you would figure you'd be the last person to appoint yourself as a spokeserson for someone needing help here. Flightsim community or not, you layed a big turd here.

Are you not as clever as to when you rebuttle Keiran at every chance, but so daft to know you surely should ask someone else to post something for Carrot, concidering your persona YOU made here?

What's just as foolish, is you obviously took a opportunity to lash out out at the AH community as soon as someone posted something negative.

"Some of these guys are simply amazing. No wonder I dont fly ah. "

Good grief. I could almost hear you tripping over your keyboard to post as soon as possible to get a quick dig at AH, and why you are so right not to play. That's so self gratifying, and completely opposite of the welfare you preach now ain't it you fool.

It's as bad as oodie jumping in the same thread with why his life is worse because his girlfriend lost 30 lbs and now is a super model and so he is just that more life stressed? We are miffed who the actual victum is here for God's sake.

Noone donates to paypal normally, and under these circumstances, you should just feel embarrassed.

BTW, good luck to Carrot.

You should take it back to the ww2ol thread. As for Keiran, there are some quotes in the invite to do a review thread.


I guess the ppl on ww2ol and WB are stupid. We did manage to get 2200 plus USD to pay for the first months chemo. We wil prolly be able to do it again when he gets out of the hospital and has to start another one.


I dont think you speak for AH, now for the dig.at least I hope not.

One of us is an idiot.   So, what I read is really the person you are. I would hate to be judged in RL by any posts I have done. Perhaps I am stupid. I do see a difference between the BS going on in the long thread, and RL stuff that crops up now and then.
 That long post is the first contact you have had with me and vice  versa. I think I know you better than you know me.

Will you still be a whippin boy on the AH BBS like today? Or all cocked up and confident claimin "Thread Endin" mastery like the day before?

I bet you continue to be easily dogged at will, and  foolish. Maybe you slide off your keyboard drooling on a email to oodie.

Goodluck but your worth here has been well, decided.

 Maybe time to move along.

Kinda pathetic when a thread soliciting some support for a friend who's dying turns into this.

I remember carrot from way back....my hope is that he is a God fearing man...I don't believe that this life is the last dance.

As to those who crapped in this thread....you all must be very unhappy people.

Hard....tell him -soul- said hi and he has my families prayers.

WHOA!  Rude,  you were soul in WB?!?!?!  Holy cow!  I didn't know that :)  I wondered what happened to "soul" .  I figured he just stayed at WB hehe.


 Hardcase,

 Don't listen to creamo he has nothing to offer other than smart bellybutton comments.  He gets off on pissing people off.  It's his reason for being here.  I remember meeting you at the 98 con and defenately remember shooting you down in CK/WB when you were a stinking toad and I was red :)  You are one of the BEST in all these communities.  You know Carrot better than most here because of your WB/WW2 beta history and what you are doing for him now is remarkable.

Torgen and his brother are doing it all . I just copied and posted from the Beta Forum to AGW and here.  One WW2Ol forum, that I look in on. But you can include me in the ppl writing posts, sending money.:) I can speak from experience, the posts mean more to Carrot than money.

I was beginning to think the AH community wasn't as "matured" as say the WB one.

I forgot that quite possibly only a very few ppl would know Carrot, and since he was a stranger, or because it was a good way to rag on the messenger, the majority of this forum would would respond negatively or not at all.

There are some great excecptions.

Udie you shot me down a way more than once!. I also seem to have a cemetary of Udies here too:D Always a good fight.

Rude, please. This thread wasn't about some virtual flyer you shot down 3 sims ago after tc went on his personal crusade here. I pointed that out just as soon as that happened.

 Matter fact, of all the long time AH players, most I could tell you how mamy kids they have, where they live and work, and many more details. You just sport a mindless "Whine of the Week" thread I think. That's all I actually know about you. Weird.

Ooodie, I don't have to try and piss you off, your mentally skewed, and so whoopee shallow it's amazing.

The depression has come back a bit in the past few days. But that is because I went over to my ex-girlfriend's house. The same one that I broke up with in such a manner that she didn't talk to me for 3 months and says I have no chance now. The same girlfriend who went from 140lbs to 115 and looks like a super model now

You have depth man. S!

As Jekyll posted Carrot has passed away with his family around him in the small hours of the morning.  It has been a long and at times difficult fight for him and his family.  

He was a good mate, a great stick and vintage fighter enthusiast.

I'm probably lashing out as a part of the grieving process but if I ever meet at a con any of the people above who have posted toejamty comments, then don't be suprised if I punch your diddlying lights out.

woe be to the man that argues a point concerning a picture.


HTCs fault?  NO!   just wish you would done with this one as you have with others much sooner.  If any thread should have been locked up and deleted this was it, very sad indeed.
Is everyone as cold hearted as some have posted here? NO! But those so called fanboys did nothing but tarnish a decent reputation and should get a one way ticket out of here.  truely a low point for this 'community'

This thread contained some of the most tasteless posts I've read here. Sadly it's the Yanks showing calous insensitivity to Carrot's friends, which I find embarassing. The only redeeming thing this thread provided is it allowed some insight into the character of some people I had previously respected. There are times when the best thing to say is nothing at all and this was one of those times. Too bad some of you are too thick to realize that.

To those who have lost a friend, my condolances over your loss. 35 is way too young. And to those of you who displayed such calous insensitivity, I pity you. Seriously.

I'm sorry to hear of Carrots death.  I send my condolences to his friends and family.

The one thing I never expected when I joined the sim community, was the friendships that grow between players, squaddies, etc.
And whenever one of dies the community loses something.  A unique perspective, an insight, a person.  

And here we were trying to score points for our pathetic little ego games, while one of us lay dying.  I have never been ashamed of this community, until now.  
.
I hope to god that none of Carrots other friends or relatives see this thread.

Guys and gals. Everyone knows that a majority of a sim community is composed of decent caring folks. Every forum has it raggers. AH has just as great at community as wb, ww2ol or any other. I painted with a broad brush again with creamo, that is my bad. Apologies. I know carrot would have and his family will find the posts uplifting in a time of sorrow.

My most sincere condolences to Carrot, his family, and all of his friends. I know how much Raxx has been tortured by his friends suffering from our online conversations, e-mails, etc. It is quite apparent that Carrot made many friends and the AH community has suffered similar losses in the past and, as such, it's a shame that some would taint this thread with their bitter infighting.

Godspeed Carrot. May your spirit fly the way you loved to online.
