Just visited my buddy Vernon in the hospital and thought I would make those who know him aware of his condition which, thank goodness, doesn't appear life threatening. As many/most of you know Vernon suffered a stroke a few years back that paralyzed the left side of his body and put him in a wheel chair. Now he has an infection in his left leg right above his knee which has kept him hospitalyzed for three weeks. As of today they still haven't determined what caused it of what type of infection it is but he thinks he will know by this Monday Aug 11. If they feel it is not treatable they will have to amputate his leg. Remarkably he was in good spirits and almost as ornery as ever. What I would like to ask those of you who know him (or don't) to send him best wishes or remind him of some past pool contest he was in and I will copy your input and take them to him when I visit him this coming Monday. In spite of his exterior gruffness I know it will lift his spirits. Thanks.
