I’m sure Scott will continue to be a force of nature and pour his boundless positive energy into his recovery. I hope you all get a lot of quality time together while he rests. Sending all my best to you all and happy to send any East Coast snacks your way!

Nat, there "could" be a silver lining...

Remember the conversation we had at the adhd summit?

When I discussed my severe head injury at 15, coupled with my late puberty adoption hypomanic break in 91, it resulted in my 'diagnosis' of experiential savantism.

Scott's brain is like a sponge, and I am of the cautious opinion that Scott will recover; I will gladly come to Charleston and work with him in his recovery. I know how to trust that "you still got it" is soooo essential following losing everything (money is nothing next to knowledge)

BROTHER YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH AND BETTER THAN YOU CAN EVER IMAGINE STILL, NOW AND FOREVER

My current partner in Green Street Growth Advisors was the first to take a chance on me, and in the four years that ensued, we crushed it.

I met my now-wife, and I regained trust in myself because of friends like Rob Slingerland, who gave me a second chance.

I PREDICT A NEW NEURODIVERGENT DESCRIPTOR THAT EMERGES NAMED SCOTTOSHI

Think of me as a large, fat near 60 male Mormon ethnic Deborah Harry serenading you...

Call me (Call me) on the line

Call me, call me any, anytime

Call me (Call me) I'll arrive

You can call me any day or night

Call me

YOU GOT THIS BROTHER

I Love you, and many do, too!

NO! This is so horrible. Oh Natalie, thank you so much for writing to tell us the news. This is so much worse than I was imagining when Scott and I were texting the other day. Yes, please kick him off the internet, and I hope he heals up well. Glad you are all there to help him get better! Love from afar!

As hard as it might be for Scott to sit on the sidelines and recover, it’s the right decision. Sending all the positive vibes his way!

I'm so sorry. I wish you, Scott and the kids all the best, and most of all a speedy recovery. Scott is one person I would never say won't recover better than ever. You're a great family and surrounded with love from so many friends and family. Just wanted to add mine to that mountain of love.
