Koete Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Gene Colan’s wife Adrienne informs us that Gene was taken to Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York early in the morning on Monday, Aug. 10 by ambulance. All is looking okay, and best guess is that Gene might be laid up in hospital for a few days. In fact, steady improvement could get him home by late Wednesday-early Thursday. He has pneumonia in his right lung behind his heart, and possibility of infection of some fluids. Some Encephalopathy-related difficulties may be going on, too. As positive vibes are always a nice tonic, cards, letters and well-wishes are deeply appreciated, and can be sent to: Gene Colan 2240 Burnett Street, #5D Brooklyn, New York 11229 http://robot6.comicbookresources.com/2009/08/gene-colan-looking-okay-after-being-hospitalized-monday/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koete Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 From Clifford Meth's blog: Adrienne Colan writes me this evening, "Good news: Gene is being discharged Monday. The infectious disease doctor has decided to send him home with a 'feed line'. He'll be visited daily by a nurse for one month. She'll inject the antibiotics into the feed and it will go more directly to his heart. This bug typically lies dorment and hides in the heart valves so he's taking no chances and I'm thrilled. His care has been outstanding and we're so grateful. God has been so good to us! Thanking you for your support and prayers...Gene's spirits are up as they had been all along. You've all meant so much to us throughout this ordeal. We take not an ounce of it for granted." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
