Nils goes into the hospital next week at Presby. At Jackson Hole he didn't have very many visitors. Please visit him while he is there. It is ver important for a PMA. Thank you in advance. You all

bump for maggots to visit nils

**helmetcam** · 07-23-2006, 04:12 AM

I'll be there.

**CUBUCK** · 07-23-2006, 09:22 AM

Planning on making it in as often as possible, and bringing some food with me. I think by Weds a Carl's cheesesteak would taste pretty damn good.....

Hey a Carl's cheesesteak sounds great to me. But better check with Nils first. The chemo protocol he will be on kinda leaves food as your last priority because you really feel like shit.

I'll be at 177 Ft. Washington Ave. 168th St. on A / 1 train.

we'll all be there. and we'll bring food, too.

hey plakes - will you have access to TGR while you're there?

**yogachik** · 07-23-2006, 07:16 PM

Sending you my warmest thoughts and hope you're okay tonight. Must be a little scary. I know the NYC maggs will take good care of you.

Just got off the phone with nils. He answered from the backseat of a car "negotiating the bumpiest street in brooklyn." Sounds like he's having a good night with some friends. More typical plakespeare positivity before we hung up.
I told him to kick some ass this week. His response:
"That's the idea."

**Daywalker** · 07-23-2006, 09:21 PM

There's at least one guy here in Rockford, Illinois (bumfuck) sending positive thoughts your way. Stick it through to the end, crank it to 11, and send that bitch packing!

Just talked to Nils after he checked in today. He's got his own room "with a good view" so that's good.

Here are the specifics for those who want to visit:
Millstein Building, Hudson North wing 6th floor, room 156
177 Fort Washington

I'm going to stop by this afternoon after class. I'll scope out the room and see what he needs- tv/ski porn/dvd wise and report back.

What would be cool to do is organize something where we could all pre-schedule our visits this and the next couple weeks, just to make sure he's getting a pretty steady inflow of people and that say- 3 people aren't visiting all on one day and then no body goes for the rest of the week.

Do you guys want to do that here in this thread, or on our private e-mails? PMs are impossible because you can only send them to 5 people at once. Thread might be easier, but the drawback is it might be embarrassing for Nils to read. I don't mind starting an e-mail chain if that's what everyone decides.

Let me know!

**steve** · 07-24-2006, 08:16 AM

Let's do email..

(email?? oh the humanity!)

mine is pizzapizza at gmail

**BeanDip4All** · 07-24-2006, 08:39 AM

E-mails it is. If you want to be on the list, please PM me or post your e-mail here.

I'll send out the first e-mail this afternoon once I get back from the "recon" mission to see how he's doing, what he needs, etc

**Stu Gotz** · 07-24-2006, 10:07 AM

Does he have a DVD player?

**Woodsy** · 07-24-2006, 10:58 AM

he has his laptop which he said can play them

**Plakespear** · 07-24-2006, 11:59 AM

Hi everyone. Well, TL put up my contact info. Visiting hours are 11 AM- 8PM. the nurses are letting me use their computer, can't seem to get the wi-fi up and running. So if any computer nerds wanna help me figure this out, your tech support will be appreciated.

I have a DVD/VHS player, but didn't bring any movies along. If you want to watch anything bring it with you.

My first treatment will begin sometime this afternoon, and supposedly I'll start feeling like crap a few hours after that.

Woodsy, brink blank CDs so I can burn you those DBT albums.

One thing I could use is reading material. Preferably cycling mags. Due to L train service being suspended for the weekend, my planned trip to the Union Sq. Barnes & Noble last night didn't happen.

This is gonna be a long week. I'm confined to this floor, so I can't even go outside for fresh air. I walked around, and saw everything there is to see. I'm going to hate looking at the GWB by the end of the week.

Anyway, look forward to seeing everyone.

Nils

**Tippster** · 07-24-2006, 12:06 PM

Good Luck, Nils. Sorry I can't come visit, but know that my thoughts are with you!

I should be just in time for you to forever associate my presence with feeling like crap.
If you can see the bridge at around 7 look for me on my way in. I'll give you a call.
