Hey guys
As u all know i had a lung transplant some time ago but this past week due to medication complications ive been diagnosed with pretty bad kidney disease.
This has come as quite a shock and put things into perspective for me a bit.
The end result is that i think i will be moving back in with Beth and making a real go of it.
The end result of this is i wont have anywhere to park my sierra unless i park it on the street in carrum downs.
Im looking for a free or cheap option around melbourne where i can keep it and still be able to fire it up for trips etc.
Id consider part ownership or similar if it came to that.
Thanks

I've got space for another car Jon... and maybe even a limited amount of parts and gear if required.
Cost = 1 spare key so I can move it if required.
Note: The car will have to sit outside and will probably become our dog's new favourite piece of play/climbing equipment.

Thanks so much greg.
Im going to keep looking for an independant solution but that could be a lifesaver in the interim
Dont think anything will be happening until november just yet

Thanks Richard.
Its been a bit of a shock but ive met a couple of people like myself who have had lung transplants and then gone on to have kidneys too and the kidney transplants seem to do really well.
Im just trying to gear myself up for the next few rocky years as things get harder before they can get better again.

Ive spent about a month in hospital since july but sort of back on my feet. Just working part time while.my bloods r stable.
They went real bad when i got a cold so hopefully i can avoid that over the summer months but when they go bad again it will be dialysis time until kidney transplant and then the wheel goes around again for another decade

This whole thing has nearly been as stressful as having a carbeurated engine
