Pelican down! Duellers had a stroke!
Just got off the phone with Jim. It seems he had a stroke Saturday morning. He is in the hospital now and will be for a few days. His doctors think they will have him back to 100% in a few months with PT. It was an ischemic CVA but did not bust thankfully. He says he has been poked and prodded and everything else seems good, just going to have to make some more lifestyle changes with some different medicines.

Wow, as we get older. I'm glad to hear that he will probably be OK.

Thank you, Sid. Damn, Jim... ya know that was a close one. Thank God you're alive! Now you have to survive for a few days on hospital food. Don't go stir-crazy and get yourself arrested while you're in the hospital. No escape plans, no Buell motorcycles up and down the hallways.

Next chapter: "and so there I laid, staring at the ceiling with nothing to do, in a ward overstaffed with nurse internees..."
Get better soon Dueller, we are all counting on it. Glad you made it through. A cat has nine lives. |

Jim, we're hoping and praying for your speedy recovery. Sooner the better so my wife and I have a place to hang out if we take the motorcycle trip down the Natchez before the heat becomes unbearable.

Pelican down! Duellers had a stroke!
Someone called for a hot nurse?
 Hope you get better fast, Dueller. So glad you got to the hospital quickly. Thanks, Sidney for letting us know. If you need anything, Dueller, your Pelican family is here! Trying to think of any of my fellow cute nurse friends that live out that way...

Man thats hard to hear, Dueller is down. Don't like the sound of that, Bro.
Just lay low and take it easy, give yourself time to recover. Relax, we all can just wait for the next installment of the story. No pressure here. We are all pulling for you! Richard |
