I know many have been asking and some rumors were flying around. Jonathan's sister contacted me today, via PM. I am very sad to say that Jonathan was indeed in an accident and fell into a coma. He has come around, but is having some memory challenges. Whatever your beliefs, please make time to pray for his recovery. Jonathan was a great contributor to the Jaguar as well as this site and I look forward to his return.
Please post your well wishes here, rather than flooding his PM. -------------------- He has always wanted to control everything. Sadly he can't even control himself. - Anonymous 10/4/09
Your reasonings are the reason why I'm here. This has proven again and again to be probably one of the last "safe harbors" from BS of any videogaming board I've ever frequented. JSII is quite simply awesome. - Vanadium 8/24/05 HO HO HO! Saturn Claws: Well little boy, what would u like for Xmas? Child: I wants a PS2 Saturn Claws: Fuck off......you can have a Jaguar like everyone else - Bonzo 12/27/04 Jason ROCKS! I can't wait to see that stuff!!! - Thunderbird 12/26/03 |

I dont know who you are talking about, but my best wishes all the same.
-------------------- I have Asperger's Syndrome, which means i can come across as rigid and overly argumentative. Please try and look past this and contact me if you have a problem with what/how i type. I type and read very literally and use no undertones. Thank you for trying to understand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger_syndrome

I just received this message from Jonathan's sister:
QUOTE Many thanks for the kind words about my brother I dont really know what he does with Atari stuff (not into computer games) but I do remember him being very proud of a controller with a round knob on.I have seen Jonathan today and his recovery appears to remarkable. He answers basic questions like who he is what year etc and even remembered to insult me jokingly as big brothers do! It looks like he will make a full recovery in time and is only complaining about Dizzy spells. As I left he even said this to me "there is not much up here in my head to damage after all its very roomy). please feel free to post this or copy and as a personal note please say with big hugs and thanks to all the well wishers. GREAT NEWS! -------------------- He has always wanted to control everything. Sadly he can't even control himself. - Anonymous 10/4/09

Good to hear that he is recovering and has not lost humor.
