Place: Richardson Comments: Jim - look back at my post on 1-21 regarding Speedy. That's what Speedy & Myrna told me on his B-day, 1-21, and so far so good.
Place: Carthage, TX Comments: Alvin seems fairly upbeat on FBook and an update on Speedy would be great Don.
Place: Richardson Comments: Don L. - Alvin is on FB and that's where we've been getting our info. He posted recently about his kidney problems and going on "home dialysis". All I know is what he posts on FB, sorry.
Place: LV, TX Comments: Anyone have an update on Alvin's condition? Jim Young last posted Diane's FB info on 1/17. I'd like to send out an update to the vets on my e-mail distribution list and have recent info on Speedy. Would like to include info for Alvin as well and hope the news is also encouraging. Both Speedy & Alvin served in the Navy.
Place: Overland Park, KS Comments: Sending best wishes to Alvin. Happy Birthday, Speedy! 🎁🎈🎂🎈🎁
Place: LV, TX Comments: I just spoke to Speedy also. He let me know that his cell# is good only for calls & v-mail - so I know why he didn't see my text yesterday. I contacted him on the home# and, as Sandy said, he sounded pretty much like his old self. He was even jovial & laughing a bit - a helluva lot better than a few weeks ago. No need to add anything more to that, except I sure hope it continues. We talked a bit more about our times at SOC, working at A&P, and cruising around on weekends when someone had the car & anyone who was riding paid for gas - aaahhh ... I told him I'd gather clips of well-wishes from the g/b & forward to their joint e-mail acct. We had a great chat and he really appreciates all our support.
Place: Allen, TX Comments: My prayers go out for Speedy. You are really a brave guy. Looking to hear you have a complete recovery.
Place: Richardson Comments: Thanks for the tip off Dale! i called Speedy this afternoon to wish him a Happy B-day. Ask him how he managed to get the US Postal Serv & the Banks to close for his B-day? I talked with Myrna first to ask about his condition. First, he was diagnosed in 2017 with lymphoma. in Feb 2018, after lots of chemo he was cleared & cancer free! We all helped him celebrate at our Spring Mini! But in June 2018 he went back for a check up & he was diagnosed with stage 4 bladder cancer. He's been fighting it and it has affected his kidney functions. Myrna said he's been thru hell since Dec 18th and in/out of hospital. But, as of a few days ago . . . he's feeling much better because all the blood, platelets & treatments they gave him has improved his health. Kidneys are doing good for now. I then spoke with Speedy & he was his happy go lucky self. Telling me how grateful they were for all the food his relatives and close neighbors have been bringing over for them. He can hardly wait until our next Mini. Love and prayers for our old Lisbon, Zumwalt & SOC friend! Not to mention, he was our paperboy for a long time back in the day.
