Gail sent me this in email today, thought I would pass it on....
Please give Uncle Jim a call.
What a bummer.


>>Remember during all the wakes he was in such pain? He finally hit the point of excruciation and could not tolerate th pain any more. [even with the martinis and painkillers] Had him all over and found out that the 'Ronaldson curse' of Arthritis has taken great hold of him and he needs a total hip replacement and maybe a knee. He has his hip bone scraping bone on bone. VERY PAINFUL!!!!! Can you believe this? It's pretty big surgery and we are trying to keep the pain controlled [without themartinis] and getting him bulked up for this very big surgery. Never did we think of this?! He has to go through alot of rehab after this surgery.
He was on his way back to Florida after the Funerals. He was all packed to go. He is so down in the dumps. He was just staring to live again and then this.
Please think of him in your prayers. I will let you know where and when the surgery will happen.
His telephone number at his apartment is 718 816-5535. I know he would love to hear from all of you to keep him going.<<
