Updates on Jim
Posted at 2:55 AM on 11-2-07 by Rob T Firefly
On the October 30th episode of Off the Wall, Emmanuel and Bernie S were able to give us some cautiously optimistic updates on the condition of our friend Jim, who as reported earlier is in the hospital due to a serious stroke.
Jim has been released from the Intensive Care Unit, and is now in the hospital’s rehab ward. He has reportedly, with great effort, been able to speak a few words. Jim’s sister, who has flown up from Australia to be with him, is reportedly very impressed with the rehab specialists who are now working with Jim.
You can listen to the October 30th episode of Off the Wall here. The discussion about Jim begins at about the 51-minute mark in the file.
The change of rooms means the address to send cards and letters of encouragement to be read to Jim has changed as well. You can now write to him at:
Lutheran Medical Center
Attn: James Vichench
Room #3220
150 55th St
Brooklyn, NY 11220EDIT 2-1-08: This address is no longer valid. See this update for the current address.
You can of course still email Jim in care of the show, and those messages will be read to him as well.
Our thoughts remain with Jim and his family.
