**TFL'er in Hospital**

You may remember a post of mine about my friend Byron Quick ("Spartacus") being hospitalized about 2 weeks ago.

Byron called me about 5 minutes ago, to let me know he's back in the hospital. I don't think the problem (severe nosebleed) is quite as bad this time, but given that the prior problems have been treated and that he has religiously been taking his blood pressure medicine since the last incident, it is disturbing.

I am hoping that Byron will still be up to coming down to ATL for his birthday, which is next Thursday. If any of you would like to call him, his room # is 7067214733.

Embulization is what Byron says was done. If I understand what he says they did, they ran a tube up his femoral artery to close to the site, and released particles to block the rupture. The procedure lasted about 3 hrs.
 
John...I will be keeping Byron in my thoughts and prayers...and sending my guardian angel to watch over him. Let's all pray that they get this problem taken care of as quickly and as painlessly as possible.

Thanks for letting us know, John...and do keep us posted.
 
Hope your friend is well soon. Hope they get the problem handled! Steve

I spoke with Byron a minute ago. He's doing much better than last time. He's hoping to be released today, though he may miss another few days of work.
 
Spectre,

Thanks for the update.
Glad to read that he's coming home.
Give him our best - we need everyone
'cause the fight is still ahead of us...

No fate but what we make...
 
Update:
Byron's condition wasn't nearly as serious this time, but he has been in considerable pain, which I understand is finally easing off.
His birthday is tomorrow (Thurs).
