    Just got the chance to actually talk with Claude this afternoon. While still tired, he is doing much better. His brother came down from Canada and is taking good care of him, including a much modified diet (for now).

    He is in great spirits and, while he road to recovery is going to be long, he is looking forward to returning to a full life, including Meatgistics.

    Claude did go through many very difficult moments and has several hurdles to go through in the future.

    Several people have asked about an address to send cards and such and he can be reached at:

    Claude Tremblay
    114 Rio Ridge
    Lafayette, LA 70508

    At this time the support is a major part in his recover, so any card or note will mean much to him.

    He would like to express his thanks for the prayers and support from this Meatgistics community. He is deeply touch by the friendship you have expressed.

    Please continue prayers for Claude and his wife, Liz. Their journey will be long, but with God’s grace and your support, I am confident that he will be himself soon.

    Chef I know that Liz has a live one on her hands and she wouldn’t have it any other way. My hands are together first for Liz and then, Claude. Hoping the thoughts will flow “down hill”. One day at a time you two.

        Good morning fellows! Today mark the first day that I am strong enough physically and psycho-emotionally to rejoin the electronic world. Most of November and December all (or most) of the communications were through my lovely wife. She was my rock through all of this.

        Glad to say that I am on the mend. It was definitely touch and go for a while, and on 3 separate occasions I truly thought that it was the end for me. Just writing about it brings a tear to my eye.

        To all of the “brothers” that send gifts and cards, I took the time to send you a private message. You guys absolutely rocks. To all that offered prayers, indirect support and best wishes, I owe you guys a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid. I believe in my heart of hearts that it is only by the Grace of God that I am still around. I am not sure how much stamina I will have to participate on the Community, but I am back.

        I do want to thank Waltons in this post more specifically Jonathon Austin and JohnG5 for the goodies. Jonathon coordinated with my wife a care package which came in just in time for me to have a nice gift on Christmas Day. I could not be more appreciative of a company and people that don’t know me reaching out in such a way.

        My biggest thank you though will have to be to Chef who DAILY checked on my status/progress and updated you guys. We’ve never met in person but did have a couple of telephone conversations, when I was strong enough, and it is uncanny that you could feel so invested in a friendship which started on a Community like Meatgistics.

        You guys ROCK!!! Thanks again for the show of support. I know a few of you are wondering the details of what really happened to me. I am an opened book so feel free to PM. If enough of you ask for the details I may make a PSA post. Although I am tempted to make the post right now I will wait to see the interest since it doe not really have to do with what we normally chat about on Meatgistics

                      It is great to be back! My stamina is waning at the moment so I will be offline until later (or tomorrow). Better take small bites at the apple. The consensus (between you guys posting and PM’ing) is that I should share the adventure from hell so be on the lookout. Just know that all the love and prayers made a HUGE difference

                                Dr_Pain Glad to “see” you again! Thought about you and your family often over the holidays. Glad you were able to be home for it. Looking forward to the potential PSA post.

                                Will remain in steadfast prayer for your full recovery.

                                    Good morning fellows! Today mark the first day that I am strong enough physically and psycho-emotionally to rejoin the electronic world. Most of November and December all (or most) of the communications were through my lovely wife. She was my rock through all of this.

                                    Glad to say that I am on the mend. It was definitely touch and go for a while, and on 3 separate occasions I truly thought that it was the end for me. Just writing about it brings a tear to my eye.

                                    To all of the “brothers” that send gifts and cards, I took the time to send you a private message. You guys absolutely rocks. To all that offered prayers, indirect support and best wishes, I owe you guys a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid. I believe in my heart of hearts that it is only by the Grace of God that I am still around. I am not sure how much stamina I will have to participate on the Community, but I am back.

                                    I do want to thank Waltons in this post more specifically Jonathon Austin and JohnG5 for the goodies. Jonathon coordinated with my wife a care package which came in just in time for me to have a nice gift on Christmas Day. I could not be more appreciative of a company and people that don’t know me reaching out in such a way.

                                    My biggest thank you though will have to be to Chef who DAILY checked on my status/progress and updated you guys. We’ve never met in person but did have a couple of telephone conversations, when I was strong enough, and it is uncanny that you could feel so invested in a friendship which started on a Community like Meatgistics.

                                    You guys ROCK!!! Thanks again for the show of support. I know a few of you are wondering the details of what really happened to me. I am an opened book so feel free to PM. If enough of you ask for the details I may make a PSA post. Although I am tempted to make the post right now I will wait to see the interest since it doe not really have to do with what we normally chat about on Meatgistics
