oh wow someone wanted a pic of him from the event/ i dont know where to find this? there is a pic. of him in his profile. its a little old so its ok for someone to grab it and post it. so everyone can see what he looks like . i know some said they talked to him but cant put a face to a name? his daughter amber sister cherie and I spent a long day with him. so far just test after test. he got sick all over the place after the spinal tap. they are going to start him on soft diet thursday. they have stuck him so many times he,s black and blue all over his upper body. and back. the thing with steroid treatment the doctor said he will be real real hungry. and he,s starting to swell in the face. he has to lay flat after the spinal and that pissed him off. to make sure they strapped him down. made him even more pissed off. nurse said if he gets mean she will knock him out for the night. meds are ready for that. sorry all i know for now.
