Say a prayer for gina if you can. She is back in the hospital tonight in icu.

Prayers from Europe are done......

Our thoughts are with you Randy.

Done, for Gina and your family.

Done my friend, for your whole family. Hang in.

We need you, Gina. Do well, be tough. There are many great road trips yet to take.

My best and our best to you Randy, GINA and the Welch family.

Thanks for your support folks! I told gina that she had people all over the world praying for her.

They ended up taking her into emergency surgery this morning about 8am pst.

Thanks again.

Hi, folks. I'm relatively new to the board, but admire the sense of community that is here, and look forward to becoming more a part of it. For the sake of us newbies, could somebody post an introduction to Gina and her connection to this group?
thanks

God Bless.

Oh, Ming Blues = Paldi but on a different computer.

No still in surgery

She's my wife of 21 years. Her brother introduced me to european cars while we were dating.

I sent her here to audiworld when she had mentioned that she was interested in the new a8 so I told her post her questions about the car here on the forums. (We had owned 5 audi's prior to her a8, most of them my daily drivers )

She quickly showed that she could hang with the crowd on the a8 and a6 forums.

She's the most wonderful person you'll ever meet, and the love of my life.

I briefly met you when Kimchee was out here, and was sorry that Gina wasn't able to join us as she was on her roadtrip. But I enjoyed reading her updates...

Speedy recovery for her!

posts, it will become obvious to you that she is indeed a very special lady. I would guess from her postings she is very intelligent, a fine communicator, compassionate, and one hell of a mother. It is also obvious that she and Randy and their two children and dog have a very close knit and loving family. We up here in the PNW wish the entire Welch Family are best wishes.

My wife and I wish our best to you for a quick recovery. Hopefully our wishes still count even though I'm currently (and temporarily) driving a Dodge =)

Tom and Dena

A dozen times over.

And more.

She made it out of surgery a little after 11:00 am PST.

Still not out of the woods yet, but the prognosis is reasonably good. Will be spending lots of time at the ICU here for the next week....

Few years ago mom's heart crashed...long story short, she was life-flighted (dad and I drove down at 2am very fast) to Pittsburgh from Erie. She came through after 2 emergency surgeries.

2 months, we slept on floors, chairs, you name it.

Hang in Randy and family! Gina will pull through!

Good Samaritian (sp) in SJ

She seems to be doing better tonight that at the same time last night.

Taking the Doctors orders and spending the night at home so I can get more than two hours of sleep!

Thanks again audiworld family!

Thinking positive thoughts, pulling for Gina. Hang in there.<ul><li><a href="http://adam.about.com/encyclopedia/000573.htm">click</a></li></ul>

and keep us posted. We are your extended extended family and we do care!!

Amen

That can be serious.

the wife and I were just talking about you two last night (good stuff of course)...

From Randy's description the physicians were on top of it, so Gina's chances are much improved above normal.
Plus, with all of us pulling for her, she has an extra added advantage.
