OK guys,
I stopped by and dropped off the stuff I was doing for Nick today and:
I asked him straight up how he was feeling, and in his own words, he's "Doing OK". He said so with some trepidation, but he defiantly said so.
He had an operation wherein they took some biopsy bone samples from his lower left back (I'm assuming his pelvis) to test for....... cancer.
No, he didn't look like the Nick we all know and love, but his spirit was the good old Nick we all know, he just seemed a bit tired. A natural affect from going under anesthesia and the knife just a few days ago. He was Nick, just Nick slowed down a notch.
The man is amazing. When I met him he was recovering from a heart attack and was in a foot cast for a broken ankle..... I was introducing a Lou Czarnota built car right into his own back yard (Phoenix, AZ). He looked it over, said "That's a nice car you have right there." and went about his evening. I was totally unaware of who I had just met.
After that evening and over the years, Nick and I developed a great relationship and Nick has ALWAYS been there for me! I cannot thank him enough.
Here's to Nick, and hoping for the best possible prognosis and a very speedy recovery! See you at Bates!!!!!!!!
Folks, please send all of your positive thoughts and prayers for Nick. They can only help!
