I am not the type to discuss my personell life with people,but since so many of you have bought parts from us here at 914ap.com i fugured some of you may want to know whats going on with us here.(well me james )
after two surgerys, five mri,three cat scans,four specialists,and a sepration from hiedi for a while.i finally see a end to most of my health issues.so the last two years have not been fun for me.i have been though alot.I never thought in a millon years the a low vitamin d could cause you so many problems.mine was 2.i had growth removed from a gland on my kidney.ended up on treatments that made me real sick.then i started losing my motor skills,so they thought that they had damaged my brain with the treatments for my growth.so at that point i really lost hope,i was walking like i was drunk,i was thinkin great this how i get to go out.They sent me to the neurologist.THE SMARTEST WOMAN I EVER MET.the smartest person i ever met period.She looked at my entire history and was able to fix a bunch of things the other doctors had missed.and told me why i was walking like a drunk and still having confusion problems.due to my nose being broke three time in my life it was blocking some tubes to my ears,i also have a crack in my skull they need to fix.ergo my walking issues and confusion.she gave me some pills do deal with the confusion.i havent felt this good in years.everything is so clear.AUG 3 rd i go in for surgery will be down for a week and my problems should be fixed. This is my apology to those who had ordering issues with us the last two years. We mfg and sold a unbelivable amout of parts from 03 to 08 with no issues what so ever,was a power seller on e bay.i didnt just wake up one day and say im not gonna be a stand up guy anymore. I have been a 914 enthusiast for most of my life.and always will be.that will never change.i will be assmbling a car and going back to attending events as a member not a vendor. nathan james hogue |

GREAT to hear you're doing better--health issues, especially the ones that seem to 'stump' the doctors are never fun especially when they're so invasive to you're life and your're day to day...
Getting back to doing the things you love, i.e. ripping up the pavement in your 914 will likely have a big positive spin on your life as well because getting back to the things we love reminds us all what we're really living for. I want to say a huge thanks, as a long time 914 owner for everything you provide as a vendor, between you and Mark Whitesell you guys have been a god send to the 914 communtity. Now get back into the drivers seat! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

Good to hear they are getting you figured out. Wish I could find a doc who could do that for me but I am afraid I'm a lost cause. Can't seem to fix Teeneritis (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)
Seriously though glad to hear things are looking up. We appreciatted the door panels you donated for WCR this year. Look forward to seeing you again soon. If I can ever be of any help. Please don't hesitate to call (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

SO glad to hear this story is showing signs of a happy ending.
I like doing business w those that understand the 914 affliction we all suffer from, and if that means more delays than "normal", NO worries! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

James good to hear!
I, like many Im sure, know first hand how frustrating dealing with health issues can be, and the accompanying frustrations with doctors & the health care "system" Its great when you can recognize PROGRESS & feel better. Take care and work on that car it'll be great therapy. |

Alot of us can sympathize James as we have, and are chasing medical mysteries of our own. They don't call it PRACTICING medicine for nothing. It's a bit more then just poop in poop out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) Best to you. We'll still be here for ya (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

James - Glad to hear your feeling better and getting health issues resolved. I hope your products will be available for sale when I'm ready to do the interior of my car. Mark
PS - I had sinus issues and a hole in my skull that made me feel all kinds of bad for a long time. Amazing how good it feels just being "normal". |

Glad to hear things are getting better for you, sounds like you have been through
a very rough time. Spending time with your friends doing things you like is the best coping skill I ever figured out through several serious illnesses and two divorces. The products I got from you are all top notch! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) You are the go to guy for interior 914 parts in my opinion.

I didn't know of your problems, but I am glad you are getting them resolved. I wish you the best. I still love my interior parts you provided a few years ago. I still need to get a driver door pocket to go on the new door panels .
Good Luck, JoeO |
