Grasshopper Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 For the info of friends of Wayne's he's ccurrently being med-evac'd to the U of A Hospital in Edmonton to undergo treatment for a just diagnosed multiple myeloma cancer of the spine. He'll be undergoing dialysis tonight, and Linda is, of course, with him. Many of us have been aware of the back pain Wayne has been dealing with all summer, and it has now destroyed two vertebrae. Linda can be reached on her email at linda@blackswanhelicopters.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinstar_ca Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 have never met the gentleman, but certainly wish him well in this battle.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drkrider Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 Around the hanger we've watched Wayne's condition deteriorate over the summer, it's like watching someone age 20 years in a matter of months. We're all hopeful that the doctors will get him on path back to normalcy and back to his usual self. Not being around the hangar the last few weeks has left a rather large void. As I hear further information from Linda I'll make sure to keep everyone informed, and will be sure to pass along all well wishes to them both. Our thoughts and prayers are with Wayne and Linda during this time and we're hoping to have you both back in the hangar as soon as possible.

NG Limited Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 I worked with Wayne back in the late 90's. He is a fun guy to be around. I wish him well and hope for a speedy recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 Though we've never met, I wish the best for Wayne and Linda and all of you at Black Swan. I've had a couple of close friends wage similar battles, and I know that void you speak of. Take care, Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
