Near a year since hearing from Jonnie King. Does anybody know how he's doing? Jonnie, You are missed here!
I fear the worst since he let February 3rd go by without comment and did not respond to pleas from the faithful. A great link to the rock n roll and hot rod past, he will be missed.
I surely wish we could find out what has happened. Like yourself, I fear the worst. Hope we are both wrong.
I called and left a message for Jonnie last night. He just a few minutes ago sent me a PM and told me that I could share it here, I am so glad that he is going to be ok. here is part of the msg he sent me: Sorry I haven't been able to contribute anything the last few months...and didn't want to spoil anyone's Holidays. But I was trying to do a good deed while in a shopping center in Bridgeton, Missouri in October, was in a hurry, stubbed my toe on a curb and fell face down on the sidewalk breaking my left arm, crushing my left shoulder, and re-injuring my neck & upper torso/disc/vertebrae injuries I had in my 2017 car crash when my brakes went out on my way to Kansas for a major car event there. My left arm was in a sling off-and-on for months, pain was at times pretty bad, and I slept in a front room chair as I couldn't get into bed because of the pressure it would put on the wounds...plus the sling was there. But Dr. Burns says my latest batch of x-rays show that the that the wounds are just about healed. Most of the intense pain is gone, I finally have permission to drive now and don't have to wear the sling...just have to take it easy for awhile.
Thanks so much, Mark, for letting us know the situation with Jonnie. Please let him know that we miss him and were worried about him and wish him all the best for a speedy and complete recovery........Don.
As usual, the H.A.M.B. board is a cut above and cares for its own...well wishes from Indiana. Regards, Randy Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.
Healing thoughts your way @Jonnie King...we don't bounce very good do we?...along with all your Hamb Buds...get well soon.
Wanting to update this old post. Jonnie has been dealing with some serious health issues lately. He is currently in a rehab facility. I’m in contact with him on a regular basis. Please pray for him.
I sure will. Just spoke with him by phone this morning. His spirit is up, but not feeling the best. Still bedridden. I will see him early next week.
Great to hear from you! Sorry about your injuries. My wife did almost a duplicate to your experience, also in October. So, know much about how a simple trip can drastically change your life. Continue to take it slow and easy.
Super/Stock Poncho, thanks so much for helping a fellow hamb’r. Let us know how you found Jonnie’s health today. I think that’s really kool your sharing all these posts from this thread with him, hopefully it will keep his spirits high!
