Long story short, some good friends of ours that live in California were in Decatur, IN today to pick up their motorhome after having extensive work done on it. He wasn't feeling well so they took him to the hospital in Decatur (is there really a hospital in Decatur?). Turns out they are transferring him to the hospital in Fort Wayne, IN right now, as we speak....to have a pace maker put in!!!!!
So here's his poor wife, thousands of miles from home, with two dogs on her hands, and a husband in the hospital!
The good news is they have plenty of friends in the immediate vicinity who can help out, and their motorhome will be safely parked in Decatur, and if it turns out they have to fly home, there are plenty of good friends who would volunteer to get their motorhome and car back to California for them.
These two are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. She doesn't have a mean bone in her body, and like her husband likes to say, she has never met a stranger. He is a great guy also and is a retired LA County fireman. He just turned 70 earlier this year, but he looks and acts much much younger than that. He stays fit and we see them out for walks all the time, so I just can't believe this is happening to him.
So, if you could all spare some good thoughts and prayers that the surgery goes well and he's back on his feet soon, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
