I thought both of you were the same!
He/she gave a different reason here: https://www.getdpi.com/forum/sony/61917-street-photography.html
Whatever may be the case, all the best!

I visited dpal yesterday afternoon. He is totally bed ridden due to the fall. According to him, he was helping a friend putting up a heavy hanging flower pot and lost his balance, fell backwards. Fortunately he landed on his left buttock and back and did not hit his head. The doctor told him that he suffered no broken bones. But I could tell that he was in a lot of pain still during my visit.
I told him about pegelli's post to wish him a rapid recovery. He asked me to say thank you to pegelli and said that pegelli is his No.1 dpi buddy and a very fine gentleman whom he really respects. He also asked me to thank Vivek for his kind words, and said he highly respects Vivek's many selfless helpful posts to all the dpi members. He said he was all set to go back shooting posting as usual after reading Vivek's comments. But his posts about the "Street Photography" article must have jinxed him then. Bad Karma. And that was actually my fault for bring the article to his attention.
To clear the confusion about the photos with the "99 car", two entirely different families thogh, the cars were available for rent. That was because we were at the Seatle Outlet together. I wanted to buy some Polo apparel gifts to my friends in Japan, and since I don't own a car and driver's license, dpal was kind enough to take me there. After shopping, we sat at the bench in front of the Polo Store and snapping away at passers-by. dpal let me try his Sony A7, but you can tell my pictures came out a little fussy, out of focus. The only good one was the one with the two African ladies and the boy in the "99" car at the store.
Hope this updates everything.
And dpal is a he, a retired and highly decorated LAPD(Los Angeles Police Department) Officer, if you read it backwards. I am very honored to have him as my neighbor.

Annual cherry festival at an orchard on the west shore of Cayuga Lake. It is a good year for the fruit trees and my wife picked about 4 lbs of sweet cherries in half an hour. Sony A7II with Contax G 35/2 Planar in TechArt AF adapter. Processed in Luminar Neptune, AI filter.

Best regards to dpal and hope that he recovers quickly. I know the feeling after recently taking a tumble down a flight of carpeted stairs carrying two armloads of framed prints. Stubbed my toe on a loose bit of carpet and went down the stairs head first with a couple of rolls on the way down. This was on my 80th birthday, but somehow I came through with nothing more than some bruised ribs and rug burn on one knee. Lesson learned to keep one hand free and use the railing when going down stairs.I visited dpal yesterday afternoon. He is totally bed ridden due to the fall.
