hopefully it's a rare virus that he got because of his weakened immune system that destroys fast growing cells and cures his cancer, and he'll get better but the virus will stay in his system so he can't ever get cancer again. this is what i'm hoping for.

is he still concious?

I was kinda afraid of something like this, last I heard from him was "i got sick and I'm at the hospital, UPDATES LATER" then 5 days go by without a peep.

you'll pull through bud, u got the fight in ya. f'reals though, hope you have a quick recovery.

for fuck's sake, this couldn't have come at a worse time. his immune system and general level of health have been garbage since the chemo. i do not know what this is but i am sure he is not in the best state of health to have to be fighting off a goddamn KILLER VIRUS that has put him in a state where he cannot breathe without assistance. jesus christ, how bout a fucking break for once? honestly.

he's conscious but like, ridiculously sedated or something. I'll call his mom this afternoon.

hopefully he's tripping or something because i imagine pretending to be darth vader would be fun for three seconds and soul crushing every minute afterwards, especially if he can't move much

Man, this is terrible and I know I probably don't have anything to do with this, but I still feel somewhat responsible.

i don't really have words to express how horrible i think this is.

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

okay, just got off the phone with his mom. it was a 20 minute phone call, and 19 minutes of it was about how was reckless in new york because he went to hang out with friends and came back alone, after taking a subway and walking four blocks.

anyways, they're doing all sorts of tests, including swine flu and malaria and shit, and they can't pinpoint what it is, but they think it's pneumonia because apparently it sounds like there's fluid in his lungs. his fever has come down a few degrees, and the lung fluid is gradually going away. I think she also said that his already weak-from-chemo-and-three-surgeries-lungs can't manage to breathe on their own because of inflammation (he's currently on a ventilator), but that is gradually going away too.

basically they're keeping him alive and stable while his body fights this off, for now!

so yeah, critical (and over the last two days, life-threatened), but stable and slowly improving.

His sister said he's heavily sedated, and hasn't spoken in two or three days now, but he's not comatose; it is legitimately the sedatives keeping him semi-conscious.

keep him in your thoughts!

Fuck, I really hope he gets better..

Hes one of those dudes that you will never quite forget, I can't help but feel a great sadness to hear this news and I don't even know the fucking guy. Probably the most sympathy I've ever felt for somebody over the internet..

Hell I never even talked to him online either.
