    Re: Anybody heard from SWETM?

    Hello everyone!

    Sorry for not being on the forum or answering pm. I was really bad in the nerve damages I have in the spinal cord. That with a combo with a lot of family and friends things happened earlier this year. I totaly lost motivation for detailing. It's hard on my body when I even do a simple maintance wash. I need to be resting out the higher pain levels I get from it the next 2 days with basicly doing nothing but laying in the bed. And when I have a bad period with high pain levels. It gets very hard to fighting through to do the simplest things.

    Then a lot had to do with I got tired of my Kia cee'd LOL. It had a lot of paint defects that didn't show in pictures. Like a 10-20ft we would call it LOL. Then the PA Master Sealant topped with PA High Gloss worked really well during the winter months. So it looked good enough. Think it where from end of january to june before I washed it even.

    Sadly I get very closed in and just want to be on my own and power through it. It's not good doing this but I have some people close to me that check up on me. Then with the pandemic and all what that causes. Here in Sweden it's not recommended to seek health care if it's not absolutely needed. And with family close to me that's in the risk group if they get it. I have stayed away from the hospital. Need to go there again to take a MRI and see if it's worse than last time. 3 years ago they thought I was to bad in the lower back so a surgery would be pointless. Then I would needed to be doing a fusion with take away the discs from L2-S1 and make them solid. And I have gotten worse since then and it's not something that heals either sadly.

    Now with a new car for me. I bought a Hyundai i40 1.7L turbo diesel with a DCT transmission 2016. I feel like some motivation is up for detailing again. And also be on the forum as well. Don't think I have gotten better with writing less though LMAO



    I saw that there where thread about me in the PMs. Very humbling to read this thread. You are all amazing people! And I promise to catch up on the detailing scene and be more active in the forum. I have missed it a lot but just don't have had the energy to be here. And then I'm an all or nothing type of caracter. Which don't get it better LOL. But seeing forward to get on here again regualary.

    Regards Tony M

    Hi Tony,

    Thanks for updating us as to where you been and what you've been going through. Myself and all the regulars consider you part of our online family.

    I''ve had my own physical body issues to deal with in life but nothing like what you are dealing with. It's great to hear you're feeling better and back to your passion.

    Sounds like you're doing the smartest things you can to deal with your own issues as well as being respectful towards others during this Covid-19 Pandemic.


    Good to see you back.

    Re: Anybody heard from SWETM?

    So glad you’re back Tony. I don’t know if you can detail much anymore and whether it’s worth it, but we’re always here even when you can’t. Come say hi regardless, all-or-nothing or not.

    Prayers to you and your family, including a hopeful improvement with your back issues, whatever may allow that.

    Great to here from you, Tony.

    Hang in there, brother.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    Having had back issues myself, I sort of understand on a much milder level how serious the issues can be. Best of luck.
