I just heard that Shannnon Brown is in the hospital and it is serious. Anyone have any more information?

Yes, this is true. I have spoken with Shannon over the past few weeks and he is dealing with some serious issues. Although I won't go into may details out of privacy and respect for him and his family, he is enduring complications that stem from a gastric bypass surgery he had a few years ago. He has been in and out of the hospital as of recent, dealing with blood clots and other ailments. As you know, situations such as this are extremely dangerous and he is undergoing testing at this time.

He hopes to get back on his feet soon and I know he would appreciate all of his friends and fellow 'milkheads' thinking of him through this difficult time.

I will share more information as it becomes available....
Thanks.

Poor planning and procrastination on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part...

Yeah, I saw him a few weeks ago and when I asked how he was doing, he just kinda shook his head, like "not good".

I am pulling for him.

I talked to Shannon the day before yesterday. He is doing better, no longer critical it seems, but will probably be in the hospital for another week or so. He says thank you for all your prayers and words of support.
