Title: Dave @ Passenger Diesel/Performance is in Hospital
Post by: malone on November 19, 2007, 10:32:02 pm
Dave was sick from abdominal pain all day and night Saturday and Sunday. He was admitted to ER and immediately underwent surgery (by a team of 6 people) for appendicitis.

Dave may not be able to work for a few weeks. If you are a customer of Passenger Performance's, be assured that your order will not be lost. Your patience will be appreciated during his recovery.

We all wish Dave a speedy recovery!

Thanks,
Mark Malone

You don't need that thing anyway Dave, it restricts flow.  You should just yank that  out and replace it with a 3" straight pipe. :wink:  :)

Make sure you get a cute nurse(female!) and ask for the sponge bath. tee hee hee.

Hey guys, just got out of the hospital, I'm feeling Ok all things considered, a 4" incision and 8 staples later I'm good as new :o

Anyways we are closed all this week, Erik managed to get the remaining orders shipped out with the help of my mom. Anybody who has more project like things at the shop will be contacted as soon as I can start walking and stuff a bit better. I'm hoping to get a ride to the shop on friday so I can make some calls and get some things sorted out. Its a setback but everything will be ok thanks for all the kind words and prayers guys I really appreciate it :D

That apendix stuff can be very serious indeed.  My mother had it done when she was 8 months pregnant.

I'm glad all has turned out well for you.  8 staples must be interesting.  Do you think you will be allowed to keep them for souveinirs?

My wife has all sorts of crazy stuff saved.  Umbelical cord tips from the kids, hair trimmings, wisdom teeth etc.

Men collect blown engine pieces and our wives collect blown body parts...how morbid now that I think about it....

Oh yeah the nurses... there was more than one cute one there, particularly a young polish nurse, but I was so doped up on morphine I couldn't tell you if any of the things I was thinking about actually happened or not... :lol:
I am hoping this weekend I can start the build up thread for my new beater jetta with a franken motor :twisted:
