Armand's been in the hospital since Sunday night when he drove himself to the emergency room! A section of his colon doesn't seem to be cooperating.
When I talked to him yesterday he said, "Just to show you how suddenly things can change on you, on Saturday night I was at a black tie affair. All decked out in a tuxedo complete with a cumber band. I trimmed my beard and was all polished up and today...I'm here in this gown with an open flap in the back."
I told him that I'd hold the vision of him in his tuxedo and he quickly replied, "Yes! That's a much better visual and I will picture you with a plumeria in your hair wearing a muumuu!"
Ann the Daughter flew to Morgantown from northern California today and says that Armand is scheduled for surgery in the morning.
Let's all send him our best thoughts for a speedy recovery. The Colloquium awaits!
