In talking with Harry recently I learned that Don has been gravely ill. Don's Gall Bladder ruptured and released bile and some stones into his body. Septicemia set in and he was so ill that the local hospital couldn't treat him. He was transferred to a Boston hospital where they have fought the condition for 10 days. Septicemia is a serious, life-threatening infection that can get worse very quickly.

He was so ill that they couldn't operate to remove his Gall Bladder, which Harry thinks is going to happen soon.

I shouldn't to say this especially during Lent but if anybody posts a derogatory post about Don and his illness I will personally remove him or her from the Forums. There have been some nasty things posted in the past and now is not the time for anything but prayers and good wishes for his total recovery.


Onward to The Land of the Midnight Sun!

Certainly hope they have been able to get the septicemia under control and get Don headed back towards healthy.

I talked to Rhonda today and she reports that Don is back at work and doing fine.

I asked about the 2013 products and Rhonda said that Don would have an announcement in the second quarter.
