Unhappy Everyone keep Lloyd in your thoughts.....

I went to Lloyds house this morning to drop off my heads. His wife greeted me at the door and give some bad news.

I found out that Lloyd Elliot was pretty seriously injured yesterday. Some sort of accident in the shop tore up one of his hands pretty bad. He is going for surgery tomarrow and his wife says it may be a month or longer before he can work.

If you don't know Lloyd he is one of the nicest people you can meet and will do anything to help you out.

Keep him in your thoughts and hope for a speedy recovery.

update

I am out of surgery. Had to have some tendons sewed togther and the end of my finger re atached (long story).

The pain is not that bad thanks to pain killers and I should regain use of that finger with therapy. It looks better now and I will "possibly" be back working in a few weeks.

I am glad they were able to save the finger. It was only from about the last knuckle on but I did not wanna lose ANY of my finger.

It's good to hear everything will be alright! I've heard of your good character as well and can only wish you the best. In a positive light, war wounds always make for good stories for the kids I think a lot of us have a couple ourselves.

I've only "talked" to you on the board but see what kind of person you are. I am glad everything turned out all right.
