[EVDL] Bob Rice Update

780 Views 5 Replies 1 Participant Last post by  EVDL List
Good morning EVerybody,

I visited Bob Rice on Wednesday after work and wanted to give you an update=
on =

his condition. He was sleeping at the time but I talked to his friend Bi=
ll who, =

along with Bob's sons, have been visiting him often at the hospital. =



Bill reported that the MRI was done the night before and they were able to =
see =

that he had a stroke at the top of the brain stem. He can move limbs, di=
gits =

and can try to speak (comes out mumbling) when asked to do so but not ready=
to =

move about on his own. The road to recovery will begin with about two mo=
nths of =

acute therapy. I haven't heard the date yet that he gets transferred.

I'll let you know if I hear anything new!

Yours in EVs,

Dave

Dave, thank you so very much for keeping us informed. Our hearts and
minds are all with Bob, praying for a speedy "recharge" back to health.
But we know it will be a long, slow "restoration".

If there's anything we can do to cheer him on, let us know.

I know I haven't said much on the list for the last couple of years but
here's a public prayer that Bob will be okay. We're pulling for you all
over, including here in Nashville, TN.

Please tell Bob that David Chapman from Cave Creek sends him warmest regards and
that I have a nice steak with his name on it waiting for when he gets well
enough to come get it. Grilled corn and Baked Potato too. If that doesn't
motivate him I don't know what will. DC.

PS Tell him Tom was asking about him too.

Fellow EV'ers,

Thought I'd give an update on how Bob is doing after stopping in to see him =

today. Bill F and Dave D - please pass along to your groups.

Bob's still at Middlesex Hospital, Room 644. Past visits he was sleeping=
but =

this visit the therapist had him up and was having him try moving and =

exercising. He sat up and was even able stand up on his own twice! He=
said a =

few understandable works as they asked him questions. I didn't see the f=
eeding =

tube attached so he may be swallowing okay now? I read some of your lett=
ers to =

him and a newspaper article about AMTRAK and he recognized me. =



It sounded like they may be transferring him to a therapy center in Old =

Saybrook, just waiting for an available bed there? Some have asked for a=
n =

address to send cards to. The hospital said that you can send mail to th=
e =

following address and they'll get it to him. They will also transfer let=
ters to =

his next location (therapy or home).

Middlesex Hospital N6
Attn: Bob Rice, Room 644
28 Crescent St.
Middletown, CT 06457

That's all the news to share at the moment. I'll send along any new info=
as it =

comes along.

Yours in EVs,

Dave/NEEAA
