^ That's really sad. I hope things turn out for the best.
John's sister in law too. At least it's just more testing at this point. Hopefully it's benign.
Thanks SirO. Got a text from Mike late last night. Cliff (they've known each other for over 30 years) has deteriorated. He's in neurological intensive care and on a feeding tube. I know Mike is taking this really hard. It's moments like this that drive the distance from here to Hartford home...
Just got a call from Mike. The doctors declared his friend Cliff brain-dead last night. He had been on a breathing tube since Sunday. Cliff's son is going to travel to Boston to be there when they turn off life support... Mike wasn't hopeful of a recovery, and he's very much a realist and puts up a brave front, but I also know he's a sensitive, gentle soul, and as he said to me a while ago, he's tired of burying friends. Cliff was 64.
