Well, I ordered mine on the 14th, and the order number is 176774, so I'm guessing they sold 200-250 the first day, maybe less.

Thanks. I just spoke with my SIL and it's not good. I may be flying north later this afternoon. My brother is in bad shape with a massive blood infection. They've got him on massive doses of antibiotics. I'm just stunned and sitting at my desk not knowing what to do from Tampa.......Any prayers you guys can muster would be appreciated.

I'm very, very good at prayers. Already praying for your brother and your family, Sir Rod. I'm only an hour from BWI. PM me if there's anything I can do. ((((((RB))))))

Good luck to everyone!

I'll have to come back and check on you later.

As of now, I'm preparing to hop a flight to Nashville, to rendezvous with my Mom, so she can have some help with the tragedy that has befallen her and my dad.

Two weeks ago, through no fault of their own, their motor home was totaled. 5 days later, my dad falls off an 8 foot ladder, bruising just about everything. Two days after this, Mom is involved in a golf cart accident at the dog show she is in charge of (big one in Nashville) shattering her hand, internally decapitating fingers...reattachment surgery on Monday.

BUT WAIT! There's more!
Call now, and we'll throw in Acute Myeloid Leukemia!
That's right folks, as of Monday, my bruised but otherwise healthy dad was rushed to the hospital after collapsing in the bathroom. Doctors immediately considered his fall as the cause of something bad, but a CAT scan revealed only the usual amount of cobwebs.
Then, a double order of blood work reveals that his white blood cell count (10-12 in "healthy" adults) has sky-rocketed to 150,000! [emoji322][emoji95][emoji323][emoji95][emoji322]
Doctors agree, it's AML. Patient is admitted post haste, and is almost immediately diagnosed with SEPTIC SHOOOOOCK!
That's right folks! An already bad long term diagnosis of AML, and life threw in septic shock!
Septic shock has a 40% survival rate in HEALTHY adults.
-----------------
One of the doctors was kind enough to call me last night and give me the info with zero sugarcoating.
So, I'm in for an adventurous weekend to say the least.
Good news is, mom has some friends who have survived AML, granted they're on mess for the rest of their lives, but it's been almost a decade for one of them...which means getting over this hump is what dad needs to do.
--------------

Again...GOOD LUCK TO ALL THE WINNERS TODAY!!!
I'm not being sarcastic. Even through all of this, I'm still fixated on the Radius (subconscious distraction I'm sure), and I can't wait to hear more about everyone's experience with it!
I'm hoping to order later this year, but we'll see how dad handles his situation.

LOVE YOU ALL!!!
Oh man HB, that's horrible. I wish your mom a speedy recovery and hope your dad fairs well with the coming treatments. Best of luck to you and your family.

Thanks Guys and Gals,

1. I truly appreciate the thoughts and prayers
2. I feel badly I may have brought the party to a halt
3. I gladly accept the thoughts and prayers on one condition:

The Radius party will go one and I want everyone's attention brought back to the fun of what today could bring 3 lucky people.

May this be a fun day for everyone and major good luck to you all!

If'n you aren't on the Provape payroll, you SHOULD BE. This post alone should be a sticky at the top of this thread and should generate thousands of Radius sales. Yes it should!



From Zen's review I'm betting about 10,000+ angels be gettin' their wings. Yes I do!



HBManOfTheCorpseDude. What can I say except that your folks are now completely in my thoughts and prayers. You're a good son for going to be with them. Yes you are.

On another not great note, my brother, who has Leukemia, had a medical procedure performed on Wednesday. Something happened after he came home and he had to be rushed by ambulance to the hospital. I'm waiting for my sister in law to let me know if I need to get on a plane to Maryland to be with him.

I'm not praying to win nuttin today. I'm praying for my brother and HB's parents. Yes I am.
Leukemia is tough. I hope your brother pulls through and it's nothing serious Rod.


Yours and HBs situations make the theft of my P3 from my truck while at work last night seem insignificant. Best wishes to you both.
