I understand ,Francisco, that you have this thought's . It's normal to have "what..if..had " questions .
Don't worry , friend of our friend , nobody here will even think about it to trow the first stone at you .
Because we all know a stroke can hit you at anytime and at any place whatever you are doing ...or just not doing.
Dave could have it wile walking the dogs or wile modding for his and our pleasure to .

All you can do , is being as much as possible by his side ,take care of his beloved dogs and if you have a few minutes left ...keep us informed pleace.

Sincerest best wishes for a smooth recovery Dave .
Much strenght and my respect to you Francisco

We pray for you, Sir, please get well...

Hi guys,

I've been in touch with Cédric Orvoine at Ubisoft Montreal (Ubisoft Romania is incredibly hard to get in touch with).

Will post any update in this thread. I detailed David's story and linked him to several different threads on subsim. I have encouraged him to register and join us in this thread to help us try to sort something out to assist David and Franc.

He will be forwarding everything to PR at Ubisoft Romania as well, or at least - give us some proper contact information for the office.

Best,

PP.

This was posted earlier - but for anyone who isn't fully aware of David's story please give this a read: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...=119798&page=4

Thanks for everything PP:up:

"UPDATE ON DAVE".......Good Job PP
 

I received another email from Francisco, I am summarizing it however if you guys want I can always post his responses in its entirety.

Dave is currently at Fitzgerald Mercy Hospital in Philadelphia. He is still in the ICU. Dave still has a blood clot and the options they are giving Fran and family are both risky. The choices he has could make things worse or kill him.

EDITED: Dave is unable to receive anything until he gets out of the ICU.

I did not want to summarize the following......


I do not know what to do. I wish Dave have family to help me decied other than I. I hope I can wait till I can go see him again after work Friday. I leave at 11 at night work and can be there all weekend.

Thanks for tell me not my fault but still feel guilty anyways.

I will tell more as I know. Mom and Pop go to see him all the time for me so he not be alone.

Thanks for the update Torps, sounds like a grim situation indeed, however nice to know Dave has someone there to be with him at the hospital. All thoughts are with him and Francisco now. Difficult decisions ahead for them.

Also thanks to PP for his efforts.

Thank ou for the update Torps. Keep us posted!

Prayers with you Dave

Hey guys.
Can someone do me a favor and get the latest getwell messages/ comments to me in a PM so I can send it to Francisco? I am in the middle of moving (just got MY 1st house) so any help would be appreciated.

Hmm,

Do we have someone in Philly? If yes, do you think it would be wise and possible have a print from the Subsim community put near Dave's bed, so he can see it?

They say these things count and help one fight his illness but on the other hand it could cause more trouble. When my dad was in post-stroke coma we kept for 4 days as close to him as possible (ICU) constantly dodging doctors, talking to him and telling him to fight.

In the end, he died with no apparent results for our efforts - his situation might have been very bad - brain dead - to begin with. But the strange thing is, he flatlined right as the priest that my mother brought finished his service.

For Francisco: I suspect Dave's condition resembles my father's. If that is so, you simply cannot control when the next stroke happens and must perform surgery (bypass operation).

One doctor told my dad - "You may die at your desk, reading the papers, or while watching TV". No strong emotions or activity is needed, the condition is THAT bad.

So keep the spirit up! This is not of your doing! But Dave needs you to fight along him. Be positive, be near him, and you may be that little something he needs to fight further.

Torps might be to long for a PM, PM me your email and I will compile the list a little later tonight and send it to you. This ok.

Thanks for the update Donut. We will figure something out.

Torps/Donut, email Fransico and tell him to bring the laptop computer to the hospital next time he goes. Have his sign on to Subsim. Perhaps Dave can still read the posts and get something positive out of this. Elaniaba suggest printing these posts up for Dave but maybe the laptop will do the trick.
