Ok, Some of you may remember Mark (Harmless Little F***) and Sarah (Urbanhippie). They're a lovely couple of PJ fans here in the Midlands who got together through meeting on the Pit.

Now, as most of you who know him will know, Mark is in a wheelchair and for a couple of weeks he's been suffering with a pressure sore on his back, related to said chair. Sarah has understandably looked after Mark (as well as looking after her 4 children - the woman's a trojan) but the end of last week he was just too ill with a fever and was admitted to hospital.
I had an update from Sarah this afternoon and it looks as though they may very well have to operate on the pressure sore. This will mean a potentially lengthy stay in hospital.

Sarah and Mark up sticks and move house over 150 miles away in little over 3 weeks... They also have tickets for Tuesday's O2 show.

Please, please, please send your good vibes to them. They and the kids are going through a really tough time... Mark wants to be better, Sarah wants him better, they both want to see Pearl Jam... let alone this being the last thing the family unit needs so close to a big move.

They are both understandably upset they may not be in London (as well as the hoards of folk who'll miss them) but his health is paramount. So please, show your love and support for a wonderful PJ couple who need it right now.

Thanks.

... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.

    Basically he got a small injury and as he has little or no feeling below the hips, he didn't feel it. Pressure and rubbing from being in the chair constantly made it worse and caused an infection... because he has little/no feeling he didn't notice and thus, it got really poorly.

    These aren't normally a problem but it's on scar tissue around the spine. Anything to do with the spine is potentially dangerous and rather nasty due to his spina bifida. :(
