    It was good to see Teddy at the dragon and I hope to see him again next year.

    Ok everyone, I just spoke to Teddy and he is still in the hospital. They have gave him the news we did not want to hear. All his cancers are terminal. Which really sucks, but he is in good spirits as usual.

    He said to thank EVERYONE for the love and support.

    This is truly sad news that is hard to take, especially since Teddy is our friend. Teddy, you are in our hearts and prayers.

    At MOTD it was clear he pushed through and was wonderful as you would expect if you know Teddy. He is a fighter. I personally will hope the odds fall in his favor and I will do whatever I can to help (as many will).

    Dave, thanks for the update and all you did at at MOTD for him. It was wonderful.

    Sweet Jesus, Teddy. What can I say other than what we all have said and felt over the last week or so? MY prayer is that you can come out of this. Get well, my friend.

    Thank you, Dave, for sending this and bringing us up to par.

    FYI, talked with his daughter tonight.

    I've got more to share, but it is not yet public knowledge (we're still getting a hold of family).... this is all a result of the cancer and the prognosis is not good- at best they are saying three months.

    For right now we're hoping he tolerates the dialysis and that it makes him well enough to wake up and get chemo.

    Thanks Dave. I attempted to reach out to his Daughter on facebook, but it being my first attempt to use the platform, I don't know if it got through or not.

    Damn it !

    I just got a call from Jayne (Teddy’s daughter) and he has not gotten any better and has worsened. They are taking him off of life support, removing the intubation tub, taking him off the sedatives and trying to get him away for the family so they can talk to him one last time.

    Sorry I am upset and can’t type anymore.

    I just really don't have words. Any that has met Teddy knows what a honorable guy he is.

    Dave thanks for the updates and all you did for Teddy.

    Damn it! I agree with you 100% Dave. I'm just glad I got to speak with him for a few minutes last Thursday. He was already making plans for next years MOTD. I do hope he had a chance for his family to say goodbye.

    RIP Teddy. You will be missed old friend.

    Awwwwww, Teddy, why did you have to go? :Arghh: :( I'm sick at heart and will pray for you, your family and all the many friends you made in this life.

    Rest in Peace, my friend.
