    Some of you may know him as Rocket468 or Chance,Rocket468 the administrator of this forum, Chance one of my close friends and old employer.
    I received a text from one of my friends asking me if i knew that Chance was in the hospital. Which i didn't and to my surprise he has been in the hospital for a week or so.
    I will be posting the link to the gofundme, if anyone wants to donate.


    More likely, I will be visiting him sometime tomorrow and will try to report back, I will also be selling some parts and all the funds will be going towards this cause.

    Thanks everyone.

    it's never a good situation to be in the hospital, let alone when you have no health insurance.

    wishing you a speedy recovery so you can get back to your family and friends soon.

    Update straight from Gofundme

    I just visited Chance. He's much more alert and coherent today. His mind is back in work mode. He wants to be at the shop tomorrow, but the doctors are keeping him in his bed. I think they have finally seen his wacky sense of humor and they need the smiles he gives everyone he encounters!
    I'm not sure what tomorrow holds yet. I'll keep updating as I get the info.
    Thank you everyone for your support whether through thoughts and prayers or donations. Neither Chance or Delana know about thus fund yet, but we know when they do find out they won't be able to thank you all enough!
