Where's Palerider?

Post by ChicagoGranny » Wed Jan 18, 2017 1:57 pm

It's good to have Pugsy back and working hard. But, what about Palerider? He's been gone over a month.

Wondering that myself. Hope he is just on vacation.

He's not on any vacation that you or I would want to be on.

I have been in contact with PR. He has been ill and has had some fairly serious significant complications.
As of last night he was back in the hospital (again) but hopefully will be released today or tomorrow.

For those of you who are in to the prayer thing...wouldn't hurt to send some his way. I know not everyone appreciated his rather sharp wit but I wouldn't wish what he has gone through on my worst enemy.
He came close to meeting up with SirNoddingOff and still isn't totally out of the woods yet. It's going to be a long road to recovery. I have no idea when he will feel up to the challenges of the forum.

He did give me a chuckle sign when I mentioned to him that people are asking where he is. I usually communicate with him via text. It's just simpler.

I'm so sorry to hear Palerider has been ill. Sending mega positive vibes for a speedy recovery. Thanks for the information, Pugsy. Please let him know we're keeping him in our thoughts and prayers.

He had a medical issue about a year ago, too.

I especially miss Palerider.
He was especially kind to me during my brief battle with breast cancer.
I wish you all the best, buddy. Hurry back.
You make me smile.

PaleRider

So sorry to hear you're not feeling so great. Hope you start feeling better soon. Let's not be making any appointments to the big house any time soon, okay?

-Bill
