Marty, just a suggestion of maybe adding the paypal address to the first post. I could not find it at first and dug through the thread and found it in post #75.

glad to hear he is doing well!

It is always the little things or unsuspected things that get ya, a friend in the Porsche 914 world (I have a tube chassis 914 with 525HP SBC) had jacked his car up in the air and used a jackstand to hold it up - one of the mondo ones to top it off. The jackstand failed, dropped the car and crushed his head between the shop floor and the rocker of the car (these cars are low BTW)! His wife heard the screaming and knew enough to get the jack and jack the car up off of him. He too survived (had some dental issues from it) and it is amazing what the body can take, but just goes as a reminder to take extra care even in the most mundane or seemingly safe of situations. I use 2 jackstands and leave the jack in place if there is room now every time I work on the car for example.

sorry for the slight hijack but wanted to throw that info out there as historically I have been very trusting of a single jackstand. Again, glad to hear he is pulling through.

Okay, I just got off the phone with Travis and we are all in shock.

Kenny is going to have another Scan in the morning and if it's good then he may get to go home by the weekend. He will still have to go back weekly for check ups but the news just keeps getting better every day.

So for everyone that was going to be sending him something send it to Travis and he will deliver it to him.

ps For a man that was this close to death and to be going home so soon it truely is a miracle.
