Gary called me from the hospital yesterday. He is in rough shape. Had to cut the call short because of pain. He can't walk.

He will go to a rehab facility in a few days. Then, in about three months, if things go well, they may be able to reverse the colostomy bag.

Oxygen level, which has been a problem for several years, is hovering around 82.

This is about as helpless as I have ever felt.

I appreciate the support and well wishes for our dear old friend.

Hang in there, Gary!

Can't add much to what John C (Bruno123) said. Gary has helped me and others many times. Pulling for him too.

Just got off the phone with Gary. He has a while to wait for his next pain meds, but was coherent and wondering about the next step, which is transfer to a rehab center. He thinks that will be awhile.

Never wanted to be able to fix something this much before.


Let's ALL keep thinking good thoughts.

Just heard from Gary's family. He has pneumonia. They are going to drain his lungs tomorrow.

Tough old dude.

Good thoughts to our friend and his fabulous family.
