I heard from Chris this evening.

Bob needs a second surgery on his brain, the first bleed was an emergency as it was close to the brain stem.

The second one needs to be removed so he can start radiation therapy.

Per Chris - He's such a tough guy - smiling- kidding around with everyone - already loved by everyone at the hospital. He's such an amazing person.

Our dear friends need our prayers and best thoughts.

Chris and Bob - you know you always have ours! Hugs!

Bud

We will beat this crap!

In my thoughts and prayers too. Chris told me that Bob is a fighter and they both want to join our GFMPH Caribbean Cruise and I know they will. Bob will kick this beast right in the head with a lot of help from Chris.

Heard from Zimac

From her email;

Bob is out of surgery, fully awake and did exceptionally well. They said they would have never done the surgeries if they didn't expect a full recovery with a good QOL.
We are on the mend and expected to go home on the weekend.

Great News!! - Keep the prayers and good thoughts heading Chris and Bob's way.

Hugs all

Bud
