I just received a brief e-mail from Marc, who was very appreciative to know the community was wishing him well.
I know the Tour Semis have just moved to start with a substitute, but Marc said that regretably he would not have been able to participate anyway. It's not lost on him what great fun it would have been going head to head with [b:15a1cf09bb]cristano[/b:15a1cf09bb]! But due to his recovering health, he does not plan on returning to SOM Online anytime very soon.
I do not know any of the details of his current situation, other than the short message I received today. If anyone wants to post a message to him you can do it here, and hopefully Marc will check in with an update.
Again, he just wanted to pass along his thanks to those who have been asking about him.
Get well soon Marc! :D
