80 year old neighbor (one of the nicer folks on the block) that left home in the EMS Helicopter yesterday ( +/- $25,000-40,000 cab ride across town) came in from his daily walk and fell down in the shower hitting his head very hard. Fractured skull (minor issue) and internal hemorrhaging of the brain (very serious issue), multiple hours of surgery immediately following arrival at the hospital. Don't have any info on a prognosis.
That sucks. Hope he pulls through.
Thanks, he is a pretty interesting guy. Was an eye surgeon who retired about 15 years ago, loved to fly his airplane but lost his medical certificate about a year ago. Something that amazed me was he has a family farm over near College Station that has been in his family for over 100 years and on that farm there is a huge old barn. In that barn is about 30 or 40 old cars dating back to the 1930's that all crank and run but they never leave there. Seem he and his father kept every single car they ever owned and when they bought a new one they just parked the old one in that barn only starting each of them every few weeks but never actually drove them around anymore.
