Congrats Rob, you truly deserve that. I hope the health issues with your child get better. I'll be praying for you and your family. In the meanwhile play the "balls" right off of that guitar. LOL.

The hospital staff have had to get tissues to wipe the tears off the keyboard guys, I just cant believe what i'm reading, its like the best dream you could ever have. what can i say, my head is in a spin, i feel dizzy as i type.

i'm literally in shock reading this thread, i was so excited when i opened it, thinking there was some new cool AL to read about, turns out it is very amazing indeed, the most amazing AL of all time! I really dont know what to type, you guys are the best ( understatement of the century!) what a ridiculously excellent heartfelt gesture, i'm sure i really dont deserve it, but will very gladly accept it of course!! Making a special AL and having it singed by all you knuckleheads really goes beyond the call of duty, I'm just another customer, I find it odd you even thought of us for even one second at your party, after all we are a long way away and i am just an AL fanboy.

I'm a bit lost for words guys, nothing like this has ever happened to me before!! My palms are all sweaty. I really love you guys, my little family is forever thankful. Hopefully Tom can get that little bit more happy by seeing me SOOOOO happy!

Quick update on Tom, he isnt doing so well, looks like we are not taking him home from hospital before he has the liver transplant, which is probably going to be mid next year, so we have a long stay here. Tom's first Christmas will be in the hospital. Been pretty tough the last 4 weeks, his lung problem is making things difficult, he cant gain weight as much as he should, needs to get to at least 7kg to get a new liver, at the moment he has lost weight in the past months, he's at 5.4kgs now. Long way to go. He's fighting hard and we are doing our best to be there with him 24/7, and he even managed to give me some smiles this morning at 5am, which was the best thing to wake up to!!!

Those of us who weren't at the Bash all know what we really missed - the opportunity to show our support for you and your family again, in another way. But I'm sure you know that we are ALL here for you, Rob! Big Poppa just seems to know how to present that sentiment in the best, most concrete ways.

Hang tough....

Guy's I have Rob on the phone and I can hear Tom in the background. He is speechless and can't believe the generosity. After meeting Sterling I can. Good on you BP and congrats Rob

Guys I thought long and hard about posting this because I didnt want people to think of me I wanted it to be about Rob and Belinda and Tom. Please direct the accolades to our fellow forumites...I would never do anything like this to capitalize on someone elses misfortune.....

ROb got a hearts and prayers award at the bash and we made sure that both Pzo and Rob were recognized at each event on the mic. You were in all of our prayers and on our mind.

I posted it because I wanted Rob to know know that it is done and knew the world couldnt keep it a secret.....

Rob and Belinda please keep up the postive vibes....its is a real test of all you have...but
you have more than you ever thought.......
