    Some of you might know, but for the many who don't -- my husband (timvp) has been in the hospital for two weeks.

    What seemed like the flu a month ago, progressed into a massive liver abcsess (over 5 inches wide), pneumonia/lung infection and more caused by a very unusual bacteria. Last Monday in ICU, the doctors told us that he might not make it. As you can imagine, it was a really rough time for us. Through his strength and the support of many people, he began making baby steps of progress.

    He fought through the days and nights -- trying hard to force air into his lungs to keep them going and to get the infection out of his body.

    Now, things are improving day by day. We have some final hurdles to get through, so that's why I'm asking now for prayers and good thoughts from the SpursTalk family.

    It should go without saying, but this thread is absolutely not a place to troll. We need him well. He has a wife, three babies, and plenty of other friends and family who want and need him to be healthy.

    Thanks for your support.

    Oh, damn.



    Here's to hoping he gets well.

    I'm not very religious. But I'll send a prayer his way tonight.

    I will definitely say a prayer for him Kori. My sister and her husband were going through a very similar situation a couple of months ago, and I know how hard it is. Keep your faith in God, and he will heal L.J. I don't know you personally, but I believe God is watching over him, and your family.
