I just got home and Oh my God, Glenn

This is so sad and shocking for me, because just the other day--I think it was Wednesday--Glenn sent me the longest coolest most satisfying e-mail I have ever received. It was the equivalent of a five page essay on the Fisher Paykel machines, all his wonderful articulate and oh-so-smart descriptions of the two available machines. It was unbelievable. I was in awe of it, and then he asked me if I wanted to know something in particular, and I immediately e-mailed him. But he didn't answer, and because he is so responsible and classy, and off-the-charts exceptional, I knew something was up. And Sweet Jesus, the tome that he sent me may be the last thing he did before he fell ill.

Here's an idea of what he's dealing with. My brother, Pete, you may have seen him in Robert's picture thread on Memorial Day, was shot in the face at the end of the Viet Nam War, the bridge of his nose laterally eviscerated. He's fine now, Old Norge War horse that he is, but he insists that getting shot in the face was less painful than a viral ear infecttion wich he also suffered over there.

So our poor buddy is in agony, and we need to send every loving healing salutory thought we can for our magnificent genius Glenn DO-DADS as I lovingly love to call him.
 
I just checked and the email came Thursday morning.

So he was still fine then. Aren't viruses the most insidious lethal vicious things alive.

Again, let's send our very biggest Texas-sized hearts out to Glenn, and hope and pray and expect that his hearing is fully restored.
 
Get well soon, Glenn.

Re hearing loss: I have tinnitus, a constant ringing noise in the ears, caused by an adverse reaction to some medication about 10 years ago. It also caused slight hearing loss at some frequencies.

The ONLY thing I have found that helps is Ginkgo Biloba tablets. (herbal) It works by stimulating blood flow to the inner ear regions - it opens up the blood vessels in the area. As soon as he is well enough to, I would suggest Glenn tries taking some premium brand Ginkgo Biloba tablets, 2000 or 2500 mg tablet 3 times daily. This can help stimulate healing and repair by keeping a good flow of oxygenated blood to the area.

I have experimented with cheaper brands, but they have no effect, whereas the premium brands (in AU, Herron and Blackmores brands are good) have a definite improvement.

Inner ear infections can affect your sense of balance too, which is very disconcerting.

Best wishes.

Chris.
 
Yes, best wishes for a speedy recovery, Glenn. One day at a time is the best way to think about it. I know how good I felt to all those good friends on here that responded when I was laid up from my fall, a kind response and good wishes go a long way and show what a kind group this is.......
 
Bob thanks for letting us know

So sorry to hear this about Glenn :-(

I pray he heals soon.

Bob...is he in a Houston area hospital, or local EC?

If you talk to him, give him my best wishes for a speedy recovery!

Miss you guys!

Glenn- I am sorry to learn of this- ears are difficult and I know firsthand that even those of us with high pain threshholds can be reduced to whimpering with an ear problem.

My best thoughts are with you - I hope you are well soon.

Anthony
