For those of you who know him, I just wanted to update you on a health event for him. He has been on lock down due to virus since he had a checkup for the success of a Watchman implanted in his heart to get him off blood thinners on March 17th. He also just had his annual physical this week. All good all around. I always call him before leaving work to see if I need to make a stop or pick up something for dinner. When I could not reach him last night, I came straight home and found him in his recliner breathing roughly - but unresponsive. He is in Providence Hospital ICU on a ventilator. He has had some kind of major stroke event - whether from a clot from his heart or a seizure we do not know. He bit his tongue, and although the usual paralysis on left side as from a stroke, no other normal stroke symptoms. They are getting him off sedation to see if they can remove the tube, and we are waiting on all kind of test results. I am not even allowed at the hospital due to virus, so wait at home for call updates from nurse. In all our years together, this is the first time I have not been able to be with him, so this is terribly hard. If you could keep good thoughts for him, pray, whatever, we would both appreciate it. I honestly do not know if - or how - we will come out of this latest event. Stay safe, and go caving when you can. Mimi Jasek
