dokk, I was on the phone with Pattyecake when the news came in today. While I don't know ompi (John) that well, only thru sporatic chatroom convos and a brief meeting at Internext, I do know that he is one of the true gems in this business and pretty much your best friend in the world.
Mishi and I send all the best of wishes to him and his family and peoples, and most importantly now HIM. If there is ANYTHING that we can do to help please do not hesitate to ask.
We are all in this life together and the one thing that remains constant is that being there for each other is the most important thing we can do to fullfil our lives. It's been a very tough couple days for me and even more difficult for you and others. Know that I am here whenever you need anything.
To John (ompi), get well kind soul and never give up. You are a pillar of strength and determination and I know you will continue to be so now even in your time of suffering and pain. Stay strong and know that there are hundreds of us that are backing you up and supporting you in your recovery.
edit: i keep forgetting to turn my sig off on these threads.
