As some of you know, Jesse got sick and went to the hospital.

I just spoke to him and he is in great spirits despite everything and he is doing much better. Heck, he even mentioned to say "Hello" to all on this forum.

All that said, Jesse will have some medical bills and now needs to move to be closer to family to help him out. Once I know the financial implications, I will start a GoFundMe and start a sales thread here that all can donate something to raise money for Jesse if you feel so inclined.

Not only is Jesse like a brother to me, he also makes these boards a much better place. You will not find a more gentle soul than his. It's so hard to find people like him and I am proud to call him "brother".

I will try and post more updates as time allows..........

@Jesse_O if you can read this brother then get yourself better! This place isn't the same without you. You and one other member are the only reason I keep coming back to this forum lol. You are indeed one of the nicest people I "know" and I'm honored to call you friend. Fair winds and healing vibes sir.

A short time ago Jesse mentioned his health wasn't good, and when he disappeared without a word I figured things took a bad turn.

@Jesse_O Hope your back soon and feeling a lot better. Sure miss you bro!

Maybe, we could chip in and get him some Tank Girl goodness, just as a way of letting him know we are thinking about him?

Get well soon, Jessie!

@Jabberwookie

That is a wonderful thought and I thought that exact thought too. But we should wait until we hear more before making a decision.

You figure he is going to be moving soon. Things can get damaged or misplaced. There is also ideas about a go fund me and submitting books for auction on his behalf.

Personally getting Bill's out of the way would be more important than acquiring a cool book I might need to sell to pay for bills.

My vote is to wait until we know all the facts and try and coordinate what would be the best course of action for his benefit.

My 1 cent on the matter.

Yup. Perfectly reasonable. I should have clarified the timeline better.

I mean after he gets settled, and gets his bills under control.

I'm in for both.

Jesse, I donโ€™t know if you are reading this or not, but my prayers are with you, bro. Hope you make a full and speedy recovery. Football Sundays are just not the same without you! If you ever feel the need for a stack of Harveyโ€™s to read while you are recuperating just let me know where to send them. God bless!

While I can see the need to bring some levity in this difficult time. You my friend have an extremely "unique" sense of humor.
