I saw this post in the shout box, and thought it would be appropriate to make an announcement post so we can all hear what happened to him. here is the post i found in the shout box @ 20:50 pst.
"This is Von Drakes wife, I hope that I am posting this in the right area, I have only watched my husband play the games I have never been on here myself. But what I wanted to tell you is on Tuesday morning Von Drake fell at work when a machine malfunctioned and broke his right hip. He had hip replacement surgery on Wednesday . Friday he was transfered to the rehab side of the hospital. He is doing fairly well , he was in a lot of pain a little earlier. But the pain meds kicked in and he was able to sleep and I came home. He did ask me to tell his friends on here about the accident so you would know why he has not been on here."
Von Drake, I hope you heal quick and get back into gaming. Thank you Ms. Von Drake for your help in all of this, as I am sure he keeps you hopping
