    Spoke with his wifey today and Jerry has rebounded (once again !)  Still on anti-biotic, but docs feel they have infection under control.  He has regained some mobility, was moved from ICU to a step down unit over the weekend and is now being moved out of the hospital to a physical rehab facility.

    His wife and I had a good laugh when I mentioned what a time he has had and how touch and goes it was for a bit, and she gave a big laugh and said "Yeah, he always likes to do things in a big way !

    So, pretty good news.

      Thanks Charlie!  Tell Jerry's wife to tell Jerry that he needs to get back on his feet pronto.  People here need him to prop them up.

      Thanks for keeping us up!  I keep sending him cyber hugs with pixie dust sprinkled with love.  Glad he is getting out of the hospital into a rehab.

      Thanks Charlie, you are a good friend. Did you get a sense of when he will be able to read emails- I am practicing restraint but maybe should not!
