Thank you everyone for the well wishes.  The Toshi’s greatly appreciated!  This shall be a new beginning for all FSM Forum members.  

What‘s shocking for me is how a 2 1/2 year old boy can grasp something once and apply it while getting better.  A swear to you all, he gets my help and has broken a few things, but his ability to see through the issues is nothing short of amazing.

Your friend, Toshi

So glad you're back Toshi!
Sorry to read of your seizure.  Hope your recovery is swift and problem free, and happy Ms. Toshi is doing better.

I'll be following, to what fun you and Ezra have with those kits.  Smile

Cheers,
Mark

Hello My friend. I'm so glad you are back, I was getting worried about you and the Missus. I pray that this year brings you and Mrs. Toshi much better health. No more scary stuff ! Just a personal note; I haven't had much time to do modeling but I still putter around with it some. I haven't even had the time (or knowledge ) to enable posting pics with this new computer I got so far. My Wife Barbara had cataract surgery on both eyes with great success. She sees so well now that I'm going to have her do most of my detail work for me LOL

Hi Toshi, I am so glad to hear from you and that you are doing fine.

I regards to that Testors Corsair, did you test fit the fuselage sides to make sure one isn't larger than the other side?  I had three of these kits and all three had this issue.

There you are,  WELCOME BACK !!!!!

Glad to hear that Ms. Toshi is doing better. I'm sorry to hear about your seizure, but I'm happy your back, and on the mend. ( No more of those .... one is enough ! )

Cant wait to see what you, and Ezra do with those kit's . I have made a 5 gallon bucket of popcorn, and pulled up my "Comfy chair". 

Merry Christmass, and Happy new year !

Very nice to hear from you again, Allan, and I'm glad to learn that Mrs. Toshi is doing better. Hopefully this will be the year when all of these health issues are resolved, I wish you all the best for your families future. Looking forward to seeing some of Ezra's work, when he is building right along side of you. I'll bet that will be a happy sight.

Happy New Year, Mr. and Mrs. Toshi.

TOSHI!!! Great to see you back. We get worried when we don't hear from you. I am so hoping that next year is better than this last. Happy Holidays, my friend.

Looking forward to this next build.

To my fellow forum members,

          Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!  I finally got the answer for Mrs. Toshi’s issue with her shunt.  It’s not needed.  She’s just doing pain management and has been resting. God forbid, she’s had enough stays at the hospital with surgery, Proton Therapy, infection, and another surgery.  I feel this up and coming year will be fantastic! 

I’ve been locked out and unable to log in until today.  Thanks to enash for fixing this issue for me.  I think a large majority of members have been unfortunately locked out as well.  

This year has been a really rough year, I ended up in University Hospital recently due to a seizure.  I went in not knowing what was going on and just got back home yesterday, hence my correspondence to you all now.  

I‘m in the process of starting this kit as soon as possible, it’s a great looking kit.  I decided that one of the corsairs I’ll build will be dark blue.  Ezra’s is lite blue.  I want to thank you all, FSM Forum Members rock!

P.S.  A really big hurrah to Mr. Tim Pressnall!!! I want to thank you personally for this amazing gift.  Ezra and I are really enjoying this build!

 

Your Friend, Toshi
