Thank you so much Sparky. I appreciate the friendship, mentoring and advice but the prayers are the most imprtant.
It's been a rough ride since early November and I don't want to burden all my great friends around the world with my Subaru.
I will say that I asked someone close to me if I'm actually dead and don't know it because the nightmare I'm living through can only
be hell. Roller coaster is the "UNDERSTATEMENT"of the century. Relationship is wrecked (not my doing), ill health as a result and the
hospital visits number 19 now. I'm on a first name basis with the medical staff from the ambulance guys right through to the neurosurgeons.
I don't have medical insurance So I use public health facilities!!!. 99% of South Africans will say the system sucks but they're wrong. My
issues are all but wiped out. A lady I met through a mutual friend 2 years ago really likes me a lot and has been taking me to a private
hospital for the past two months at her cost and it ain't cheap. Gabriella is special God Bless her. I can call at 2AM and she's here in 15 minutes!!!.
Getting back to the liner. My creativity all comes from being relaxed, happy and generally being in a good place. It's not happening. I live alone
and care for 2 Jack Russells and a rooster. My best dog and friend Ruby was killed by the others in a fight over dominance. Broke my heart and
I don't think i'll ever be the same. I don't go outside the property and I might as well be doing 25 to life. My missus is staying here off and on so
things are not the best. To top it all she's got cataracts and doesn't have insurance. She's out of her mind with fear. She went to Johannesburg General Hospital
for a consultation and the end result is that they could remove the cataracts in late October. She'd be blind by then and is a medical rep so she spends a large part of her
day behind the wheel. I couldn't watch her suffering I promised to find the 33,000
grand to pay for the surgery. She was sceptical but I prayed for help put my Harley Bobber project up for sale at a fifth of what it's worth and waited.
My Carbon supplier is a good guy and called to check on me. He asked how I was doing and I opened up to him so he asked for first option on the bike.
He came around to see the project and said he couldn't buy the bike because he could see how much I invested in it so he proposed a deal where he'd give
me the funds for her surgery and when I finished assembling the bike he'd like to ride it on occasion and when I sold it he suggested we share the profit.
He went to his MPV and came back with R33,000 in cash. You talk about prayers being answered?
?. The sceptical "one" I took to the best eye surgeon
and paid up front. She goes in on the 2nd of August for surgery. Weird thing is that the big dangerous stuff I handle with ease but the emotional stuff gets to me.
If ten guys were at my gate to beat me up I handle it like a walk in the park. I was a born warrior and only fear God, lightning and Boerbull dogs.
I believe in the Good Lord and I might be a lousy Catholic but I have guardian Angels protecting me. I did lose the plot between November and June but I came
out of it unscathed. I truly believe "Prayer is the Breakfast of Champions" and I'm binging.
Got lots going and the tide has turned. I'm earning money and so called friends said I could have used the money to buy tires for the liner but my Priorities lie
in the right place. This woman put me through hell but what's right is right. I'm taking a bunch of parts for the long car to have the inlet manifold welded, maching done
and powder coating. The liner is all I have and my only motivation to live. I won't back down and I'll finish it so I can run in August next year. Pulled a few more sponsors
with a couple of phone calls and slowly but surely my Juju is coming back. Why did I share my private stuff here on the forum?. Because I tell it like it is!!!!.
That's me in a nutshell. Without this long car and all you awesome friends I'd be in the ground six feet down.
