Thoughts and prayers for Sparky_Buzzsaw (updates)

Hello Bombers,

This is the hardest post I've ever had to make. A lot of you know my brother, Sparky_Buzzsaw. He was a former moderator, and one of the great contributors to this site as a moderator and forum content.

Well, yesterday I got a call from my parents that my best friend and brother was on his way to the town I live in on a ambulance (He lives in a very small town). Well they brought him in for possible heart problems.

At this point, we don't know what happened. The doctors have told us there is a problem with his heart, but it may have been a heart attack or possibly a blood clot. They have told us that one side of his heart is not acting right and I need your thoughts and I need your prayers please. A Cardiologist is coming in sometime soon to do a scan on his body to see what is going on.

Sparky (Cameron) is conscious and responsive which is a great sign, but he needs a pump me up. So I am heading back to the hospital and thought a great thing would be to read some positive responses to him from the Giant Bomb Squad!

If this offends the moderators or the site, I am very sorry. But he needs to hear people support him.

Please, give me some stuff to read to my brother to cheer him up!

Oh no! Sorry to hear that, I definitely remember his name on the forums and in the chat. Wishing him well and hope to see him in the chats again very soon! <3

Hope everything turns out well! Let em know lots of folks in GBi are sending him love!

I wish him the absolute best. His name was probably the first I started really recognizing in chats, because he's always a joy to see around. Hoping to see him again soon!

Really sorry to hear this. Sparky_Buzzsaw is a staple in chat, I hope he has a smooth recovery and can shoot the shit with us on live streams for decades to come.

Thoughts and Prayers his way, hes one of the few that responds to my crummy jokes and quips and he deserves the best

Best wishes for you Sparky_Buzzsaw, you're a real gift to the site and forums/chat! Hope all is well and you make a speedy recovery. We'll try to keep the place somewhat orderly for you on your return. :)

My best to Cameron, you, and your family, and here's hoping for a speedy recovery.

Very sorry to hear this - I absolutely recognize his name and deeply appreciate his contributions to the GB community. Get well soon!

Best wishes and prayers, guy!

Wishing you the best of luck, duder! Get well soon.

This is sad to hear. I hope everything works out. Get well soon!

Update us, hopefully with good news.

Oh gosh, that must've been a terrible phone call to receive. Stay strong duders, both to you and Sparky. I know he'll come through the other end even stronger than before! Wishing a speedy recovery so we can see you back around soon.

I've had my problems with this site and the mods, but seeing the love for my brother. I'm crying at my keyboard. Thank you all so much. I will update as I get it.

I haven't seen that name in a while. @sparky_buzzsaw Get well soon.

Stay strong, get well, man.

Having been a member on the site since the beginning, I've seen plenty of @sparky_buzzsaw's contributions to our community. Man. Sucks to hear about his health problems. Hope you pull through duder and get on the mend soon.

The only heart condition anyone should have is if Ezio walks up and is like "uh, uh, uh, uh"

Get well mate.

Sparky's a good duder, and I've had many a great (and inane) conversation with him over the years. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

You've always been a cool duder, Sparky_Buzzsaw. I hope everything turns out alright. Stay strong!

So sorry to hear about this. Get better soon and hang in there, duder!

Damn, sorry to hear that. Hope everything goes well.

Hope everything turns out well, best wishes duder!

Sorry to hear about that, wishing Sparky, you and your family all the best.

Hang in there Sparky ole’ buddy. You’ve got more stories to write, keep fightin man.

Everybody is pulling for you @sparky_buzzsaw. They dont come any better than you.

@sparky_buzzsaw has always made great contributions to the site, hoping everything pulls through for him.

Here's to you pullin through, Sparky. I hope everything turns out well for you!

Hope everything turns out well, Cameron!

Get well soon !

❤Sparky❤ We all believe in you. I know that you've taken time away from social media lately, so I haven't spoken to you in a while, but I look forward to our next chat. You can get through this!

Hard to imagine being on this site and not knowing @sparky_buzzsaw, here's hoping everything turns out alright. Keep up the fight! Hope you're feeling alright too Ryan!

Oh wow, best wishes, both of you. Tossing thought-hugs your way, man.

I hope everything turns out well

Had nothing but good interactions with Sparky - wishing all the best <3

Damn, that's super scary.

Here's to a speedy recovery.

I hope you get well soon Sparky.

Hate to hear this. I was just chatting with Sparky in GB Infinite chat a few days ago, and he's always a pleasure to interact with.

Stay strong and get well, Sparky.

Damn, that sucks. Hoping you get well soon Sparky.

That's awful. Get well soon. Hope you guys can stay positive. There's a great community here that could be of a huge help to you guys if things get difficult.

Get well soon Sparky!

Awful news, really sorry to hear it. Best wishes and hoping he gets well soon.

If you were going to make an all-time Giant Bomb Hall of Fame for forum posters, Sparky Buzzsaw would be a unanimous first ballot inductee.

I hope everything turns out okay. Get well soon, Cameron!

My prayers will go out to Sparky_Buzzsaw, you and your family! I'm sorry to hear about him and hopefully he has a steady recovery.

I hope your family is doing well and Sparky can kick this thing's ass.

That is absolutely awful. Sparky is wonderful and I always have fun chatting about books with him online through Twitter or whatever!

Please let him know that he is in my thoughts and I hope he is going to get well soon. Also, please let your family know that this community is filled with people that love and appreciate Cameron and hope that he, and your family, will be doing much better in the near future, if not immediately. Good luck, best wishes!

Get better soon, SB. We need our adventure game expert back.

Get well soon Cameron. Your time moding and contributing to this great community has not gone unnoticed. We also need your next novel duder!
