Mood: SO MANY TACOS, SO LITTLE TIME... Gotta Go, See ya there....:bounce:

[*] posted on 9-14-2011 at 05:38 PM


Just got off the Nextel # with Fernando (FDT ). He just got to Ensenada and is trying to find the hospital. He's going to call me back later and let me know what western union agent to send funds to so he won't have to be running all around. He's thinking right now of the ELEKTRA agents or EKT as it is on the western union web site. Soon as I hear I'll let you all know. He has turned off his U.S. cell phone due to costs down there. If anybody needs to get a message to him you can call me and I can relay it via Nextel 2-way radio. My number is 619 990 0270 or I guess you can call his Baja cell # at 011 52 1664 116 5788 from the states and you guys down there can figure out that number from there I'm sure..:yes: I'm happy to relay anything for those of you in the states.

I wish we could do more....
I have been trying to follow the thread as best as I can due to sketchy internet and being out of the loop. We have gotten updates from Shari and Mulegena and have been praying for their speedy recovery. Sorry I missed the mention of the Consulate ( as I said I wasn't sure if it was a viable resource ). I am glad to hear good news and that there is a band of Good Samaritans out there disguised as Nomads. You all are amazing when the s**t hits the fan.
Continued prayers....

ooops...i thought about 400 pages ago I saw it mentioned...wishful thinking...it's a slower process but could be fast if someone just did a bank transfer to the appropriate bank account, got it withdrawn and pay the bills...like if I have a grand in my bank account and I transfer it to FDT and people deposit into my paypal account which will in 5 days get into my bank account...am I making any sense at all? anybody have an account with any money in it? jajajaja...and a paypal

excellent update King Nomad...i'm never quite sure how much to divulge.

Absolutely!

Please confirm or deny lizard lips observations once and for all. It would give us a measure of peace.




This is one of the reasons I am done with this......Ron and Christine I hope it all works out somehow and for those Nomads who who have their head placed directly in their ass-pee off

I am not trying to be negative, but the man isn't exactly popular for doing the right things. Thats why he lost by a landslide in the past elections. Maybe if he reads this:

DO THE RIGHT THING MAN!!!!

6:49 PM Just talked to "FDT", Fernando. He just left Christina and said she is doing much better. Fernando is on the way to see Ron and he's going to get with the hospital officials and get an accounting of all charges, to keep them "honest" . More to come later as I get it....:yes:

I for one greatly appreciated your efforts on Ron(and Cristina's) behalf.

That there is sincere dissent as to the medical significance of your observations matters not. I have not one doubt you reported what you saw and heard as accurately as possible.

Thank you for that. And to all the others able to express themselves with tact, respect, and grace in such a pressured situation.
