I spoke to Gil tonite knowing he'd been hospitalized again after 5 days at home following some earlier planned surgery.  To my surprise he has been back in the hospital for almost a week now. Some problems developed and he had to return for followup treatment.

He sounded good, just tired of being cooped up in a hospital.  He asked me to let folks know he's coming along slow but sure and hopes to be home for good on Mon or Tues of next week (Jun 9 or 10).

Gil sends his best wishes and is looking forward to a thousand post or so backlog to wade thru when he gets back on the forum!!

I was just about to ask about him as it's almost been 2 weeks since he posted.

Get well soon Gil.
