Goodbye.
My apologies for not speaking to anyone.

I wanted to say goodbye and for all of you to take care of yourselves. It's been another fun ride but it now must come to an end. I can no longer use VPX.

Please keep pinballin' and take care.
 
Take care and look after yourself.
 
Take care mate, stop by for a beer sometime.
 
Take care. Have always loved the flipperless tables...
 
Thank you so, so much for all of your generous hard work over these years, Will...you brought lots of amusement for many people without asking anything in return, just for the fun of it. Take due care of your health and enjoy a most deserved retirement.
See you anytime ! 🤗
 
Bloody hell, (*&!@$, I missed this at the time. !@&*!@*&($#

As you saw the other day, Will, I'd just randomly-called you that Sunday to see how things were going. I'm terribly sorry we didn't connect that day, but appreciated the text-back on your part.

Ugh. So, dude, you got my number.

NOW, if you're just saying you're done with pinball, well... haha, I guess that's cool.

Just that I'm a bit scared, over here...

Hello. I'm not really ignoring anyone, just dealing with my neurological problems. It's gotten bad so I'll have to find a serious specialist to deal with this. I've pretty much told you everything. Just the other day I sat in my office chair for eight hours trying to sleep in it since laying in bed doesn't help; it makes it worse. Crying does help and so does the "hot & cold" roll on for a small time but soon it wears off. I'm doing what I can to TRY and find a REAL DOCTOR who will take my problems seriously.

Not much else really. Time to get Tatum's claws trimmed which is an ordeal in itself with the hissing, spitting and growling. Nonetheless it gets done thanks to a very kind woman who comes out to trim her claws. A blanket works wonders as well. I don't need a 17 year old kitty being crippled by her claws and don't want her in pain with her age.

Anyway, I'm not ignoring anyone. I'm just dealing with what is going on in my own way.

I may collect everything I have left over from VP and give them to someone. I have TONS of play fields and other stuff that is crucial to flipperless tables. Haven't found anyone yet really but I can only zip up the images and files and hold on to them; I have them all. TOO MUCH really and I wanted to get to them but never had the chance. We'll have to see.

Take care. I'm still here and now and then stop by to see what has been posted. Not much else. Keep the peace and keep pinballin'.

it might help.
of course you need to do the research and maybe talk it over with your DR.
good luck.

As a person who deals with complex medical issues, and gets a lot of unasked for 'advice', STFU
Unless you are a doctor, or have been through the same issues the other person is dealing with, quackery is not helpful

ypou don't know anything about me.
it was not intended as advice.
just a suggestion for reading.
take it or leave it...
doesn't hurt to listen.
btw,,,
i had SIBO 15yrs ago from H-Pylori parasite infection with a bleeding ulcer....
my stool was black because i was bleeding up high then the blood mixed with my poop coming out black.
search "small intestine bacterial overgrowth"
it took me 5yrs to come out of it from what the antibiotics did to kill the bug.
h-pylori lives in your stomach or duodenum pipe after your stomach...search "duodenum"
that little prick bug burrows into your stomach and intesting lining then secrets an antivenom to nutrolize
your stomach acid so it can live there all happy.
the antibiotics are devastating to the gut because the antibiotic drugs are not choosy about killing
everything off in your gut even the good guys.
it was a 10 day course of antibiotics 3x per day.
after day 4or5 i was getting real sick from the kill of everything, but i had to keep going to the end of day 10.
by the end at day 10 i was sick....the antibiotics sterilzed me and my gut.
microflora is very important for your immune system, digestion and general health.
i was sick for yrs recovering from the antibiotics.
i took probiotics to help rebuild the microflora but it is a slow process to rebuild the billions of microflora
in your gut.
i had no digestion and sick because my microflora was killed of with everything else from the antibiotics.
i had leaky gut syndrome because food was leaking into my gut and making me sick, IBS, blootting, constipation, enemas so i could poop, and maybe a little blood at times because of the ulcer and the drugs ripped my mucus and intestine lining.
the antibiotics did a lot of nasty things to me.
if left unchecked sibo can lead to stomach cancer
i was sick for awhile.
it was a miserable little prick.
to this day i am maybe 90-95% recovered.
i still get IBS and indigestion.
maybe my gut flora is not what it used to be.
i suspect i have mataplasia
search...."does h pylori cause intestinal metaplasia" and "duodenum"

ahhh, you want to play that game?
search 'necrotizing fasciitis'
Nasty little bug, too quick for antibiotics.
One treatment, cut, and keep cutting until the diseased flesh and muscle is removed.
8 surgeries to remove the damaged tissue. One 11 hour surgery to patch up the hole that was left. one month virtually tied to a hospital bed

Want pictures?

omg.... necro fasci is a nasty bug carnivore.
pete, that was not my point....i was not challenging to a who had it worse contest.
the point i was going after was i have been there and had my share.
i guess i should have pointed that out...
i could feel what Druadic was feeling...i was sick for awhile with the H-Pylori, ulcer problems and bleeding
that went with it....BTDT...it was a terrible time.
and yes,,,bring on the pics and don't hold back anything.....i love a gore fest.
tell us what happened that did this and what you went through with the pics....let's go..
