Re: EMERGENCY! I think i broke my camshaft (update #2)

Hi Dan
Thanks for your concern.
I recieved a transplant from a cadaver donor on July 5th.  From what I hear
I was pretty lucky.  I was only on the transplant list for about 8 months.
Its going pretty well.  I am still weak and tire easily but getting better
fast.  I already feel about 200 percent better than I did on dialysis.  I
will be 42 on thursday.

Both bolts holding the cap on are broken and the cap is in two pieces.  It
looks like one bolt broke and the cap was ripped apart breaking the other
bolt.  I will get some pictures up soon.

Nick
