FON Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 The week started great with the starwars dvd, but this is the start of my bad week. Monday morning a massive headache kicked in and the girlfriend made me go the the doctors. within the hour I was in hospital. I had Viral Meningitas (not sure if spelt right) I had all the works CT scan, Lumber puncher (i think it was called and god I hope I never have to have one again). Finally been released this morning. To make things a whole lot worse I have to take it easy for a few weeks and have been told not to drive for a while as bright lights hurt my eyes. Which means I can't go to next weeks Collectamania which is making me feel gutted. I was really looking forward to meeting Carrie Fisher, the 2 billy plus a few others. I've even got my hotel booked for the friday and saturday night. I went to C5 and thought it was great but noe sadly I'll have to start waiting for the C7 posts to start. I felt like crap in hospital but the thought of not going next week after weeks and months of waiting is probably worst. Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lady Elanor Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 (edited) Oh heck, you poor thing, I do hope you get better soon. My niece recently had this and it's took her a while to recover. I'm sure someone would be happy to pick you up any autos you want, I won't be there daytimes or I'd offer. Get Well Soon and we'll make sure there's lots of pictures. Edited September 24, 2004 by The Lady Elanor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalfia Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 I'm really sorry mate. Do take care of yourself. And make sure you come to the next one! I know how you feel, I had a form of meningitas when I was 14. I had to wear sunglasses for nearly 2 weeks. Are you coming to Comic Con? Everyone is here for you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenGreen Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Glad to hear that you are on the mend. As much as these events are great, it makes you realise your health is really important. You only have one body , and there is a LFCC2 and a C7 just round the corner. Time for you to get fit and well again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidg Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 My god, you poor thing. I really hope that first and foremost you get better quickly and never have to have an LP ever again - i can sympathise from experience. Very same thing happened to me when i was 13 and i wouldn't wish it on anyone. I'm so sorry you'll not be able to make it to C6 too, and i really hope you can maybe find a way. Take care, and i really hope you get well soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danni09 Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 What about public transport? Although I know it's a hassle. I have to get the bus, train, tube then train. But it would be a shame if you had to miss out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FON Posted September 25, 2004 Author Share Posted September 25, 2004 Thanks for all the kind messages, I couldn't go even if I wanted to as I find even on my feet now for a short time I fell very tired let alone standing at C6 all day. I found C5 to be a very long and tireing day but was great great fun. Unfortunatly I don't have the energyat the moment, if only if was 3 weeks away and not 1. I've not placed a post on here asking people to get signed photos for me as it seems a bit unfair on them as the people I really wanted were carrie and the 2 billys (I had lots of queueing planned) and I know these will be the busiest and hardest to get. Its only a shame you can't do a pre order with SM. Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan's_girl Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 You could always rock about in a wheelchair if you can't stand for long periods of time. Maybe then you'll get to go to front of queues. That is if you find someone to take you.!! lol. Hope you get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
