Hey guys,
I just talked to Phyllis, Jerry's wife. Jerry has been in the hospital since Dec 10th. He is in ICU. It has been a whirlwind she said. He went in for a hip replacement as the fall he took last May and the recovery from the fall did not work out.

So they replaced the hip. Jerry got pneumonia and had to be put on the ventilator a few times. He is having heart issues and now the latest there is an ulcer eating through his intestines. Sounds horrible. Each time on the ventilator has only been for a short period but he has requested no more ventilator. He and Phyllis could sure use our prayers and good wishes.

Thanks guys!!!!

You got it Doc. He and his wife will be in my prayers tonight. It really upsets me when bad things like that affect old FF friends.

No updates. I will call for updates weekly. I do not want to bug Phyllis (Jerry's wife) more often than that.

I don't think that there is anything that I can say that will ease the pain of his wife and family at this moment. RIP Jerry.

Thanks for letting us know Jim.
I tried to call Phyllis yesterday but didn't get an answer nor did the machine let me leave a msg.

I will follow up on this and be sending flowers or a donation in the name of the FF. I will post info here once I find it.

I've searched for the post last spring about a fall Jerry took down some stairs I think but so far have not found it. If anyone else can find it or share details of what that was I'd be interested. Phyllis told me that is what started Jerry on this path.

My heart is broken.
I am crying.
God bless Jerry and his family.
That man was so lovely to me in all my years on this forum.
Always concerned, always caring.
Rest in peace you beautiful soul.
You were, ARE loved.

I found the post Jerry made on 6/1/2018.
He also spoke of procedures and not doing well last July.
He broke his hip in mid May.
