I sent an email to some of you and now Phred has asked that I make a post so here it is. Here is his original thread

I talked with him last nite and quite honestly he sounded pretty ickky.
He was pretty short of breath and his feet are swollen and he hasn't slept more then 2-3 hours since he has been home from the hospital. He finally expressed seriousness to his doctor and he had some tests today. As suspected, he is showing signs of Congestive Heart Failure.
congestive heart failure
NOUN:
A condition marked by weakness, edema, and shortness of breath that is caused by the inability of the heart to maintain adequate blood circulation in the peripheral tissues and the lungs.
He went into the hospital this afternoon according to his friend Jason against his will. He will be there a couple days while they run more tests. He is going to have a Nuclear Scan tomorrow to see if he has a blood clot in his lungs.
He is resting comfortably and is in the best place he could be right now.
He is here.....
