I just want to say thank you to everyone for your kind words and messages over the last few weeks. For those that hadn't heard my 6 yr old daughter Holly was caught under a moving car nearly 3 weeks ago. Today is the first day I've been able to post here although I've been able to read the forum from my phone. Holly is having her ups and downs and she is up to operation number 5 and I hope operation number 6 will be the last.
Now for some good news, Deep Purple are in town and my forum brother Tommy has looked after me in spectacular fashion. I have done an interview with Steve Morse that covers the Y2D and the chambered Y2D. Also a sit down interview which Steve tells a great story about Sterling and his father Ernie. Steve Morse is the best and I'll ask anyone to step outside if they challenge that statement. I will be flying down to Canberra to attend the clinics and may have some cool pics of something super cool and new from camp Morse/Ball. I'll only do it if you guy's promise to stay loyal to the best guitar company in the world Ernie Ball Music Man.

Hey Col... Massive Positive Vibes to Holly, you and the family. Fingers and toes crossed for op 6 being super smooth sailing and the start of an amazing recovery. I'm stoked you caught some down time with Tommy and Steve. You and the family have had a hell of a run mate and you really deserved a great night out. Wish i lived closer, I certainly owe you more than a couple of beers... I'll get there eventually, and when i do watch out!!!
Take care mate.

Colin, I missed the information, too. Being a parent changes things in ways that non-parents cannot ever imagine. (I thought I could - I was wrong.)

You're a great guy and I am so sorry to hear of what happened - and ever hopeful that all will turn out well.

I don't normally post photos of my family on the internet but here's Holly. She has an infection on the bone which we need to get sorted before any skin grafting can occur. a tube was inserted into her heart last night to assist with medication. My stay in hospital with her has just doubled.
