Default John Lingenfelter Update...

Not sure If this has been posted here or not but this came from Ed at LPE engineering a few days ago...

Hello members -
Thank you all for all of the kind words, and thoughts that everyone has been sending in, I'm sure that they have been helping John during his recovery.
Since the re-action to the anestetic in November, John has been in a semi-comatose state, but, in the last couple of weeks, he has shown some signs of improvement. I spoke with his wife Cindy last week, and she said that he is responding to voices, and following her voice, and trying to laugh. I've known John a long time, and those words tell me that he is inside there someplace, we just have to help him find his way out. Everybody , please keep praying, and thinking of him, because I know that all of the support he has been getting from around the world is helping him to recover.

Thank you all,

Ed

I was watching the meguyer's show, they were interviewing someone who was very close to John, And the guy said that he spoke to John's wife and she told him that he had woke up and looked at her and said "Get me the hell out of here". It was so sad to hear about his accident. He has done some amazing things in the Auto world, And I hope to see more from him in the future.
