I tried and actually got through to Glen (on his cell)a few times this evening, but we had a horrible connection. I did get through to his wife and the hospital has released him to San Antonio (Daughter).........although Lufkin does have some highly thought of hospitals.........San Antonio is better.

Keep him in your prayers.............

I just had a call from Glen. Like Joel said, he's much better - been released from the ICU unit and put in his daughter's care. She's a nurse in San Antonio. He's got more hospital work to have done - but they'll do that in one of the San Antonio hospitals. We had a good talk - even if I did have to struggle through the accent. That must be a real level-headed 14 year old granddaughter he's got. Glen said he will have access to the web when he gets to his daughter's house and will sign on from there - so I'm sure there's more coming. It was good to hear his voice - he sounded strong - and that's a good thing.

wiskers_ump's daughters DAD

This is glen.

I want to thank each and everyone of you for all the prayers and thoughts.
The ICU clinic at the Lufkin Clinic was flooded with calls from people that
a lot of you had contacted with offers of assistamce. I am in SA where I
will have to undergo several more test and almost certainly one more
attempt at balloning a couple more blocked vessels. But,,,, I am alive and
that is largely due to the fast thinking of my 4 year old grandaugher and her 14
year old sister. The 4 year
old saw me bent over holding my heart and told the 14 year who immediately drove me to
the local hsopital. They had no power, only a couple of generators, but the nurse
in charge has been a friend of mine since her high school days, and she immediately
got FEMA to helicopter me to Lufkin where a team was set up to start the surgery
procedures. I was told there that I had suffered a massive heart attack
and would surely not have made it had not everything fallen in place as it
did. Guess GOD does like me.

Hey, cannot thank you people enough. I hope this makes sense, but had a long day
and trip.

I am so happy to know you are in a good place with family to take care of you.
I am leaving in a couple of days for the west side of Louisiana with supplies etc for friends and former neighbors, they got hit much like your area.

Take care and practice your best delivery of the, "Coach, you are an idiot" look.
When you have that look reworked, you will be ready to go back to working games.


Again, so glad to hear that you are doing well.

Scott

What accent? He talks Texan English, just like he always did. Now, if he was an import, from somewhere else outside of Texas, I could understand the comment about an accent.



I'm really glad you're OK, Glen, and hope the procedures come out great. See ya this next summer maybe???

Mike,

Funny you should ask that. I would let my wife answer that, but Mick would not let the post go through.

LOL
