Barrie Pratt has knee problems and is now walking with the aid of a cane. More seriously though he has a pain which he first thought was a heart attack. That was discounted but the pain is still there in and around his stomach area. Right now he does not know the reason for his discomfort. Barrie is scheduled for more tests in early December so hopefully he will find the answer to his problem. Since late summer he has lost 46 pounds so hopefully he can find an answer since the weight loss was not planned.
Rae Graham is very positive about his prostate cancer. He has had 5 radiation treatments with more to come. Pat (his wife) is at home and doing well according to Rae with physiotherapy she is receiving for her hip replacement.
Jim Roberts a former member of our club and a Past International President of Gyro who now resides in North Vancouver with his wife Jean and also usually winters in Palm Springs. In mid October Jim had a heart attack and had 2 stents put in however shortly after he was still experiencing some pain so another operation was required. On November 4th Jim had bypass surgery and was released from the hospital this past Sunday. I talked to Jean yesterday afternoon, Jim was resting, and she said he is doing well but tires easily. Hopefully quite soon he will be put on a walking regimen which will help get him fully back to feeling better. I asked Jean to pass on to Jim the clubs good wishes and that we are all thinking about them at this time.
Now some good news!
Roger Delveaux had a hole in one on the 5th hole on San Gorgonio one of the Mountain Vista courses at Sun City Palm Desert. The 147 yd hole (gold) is a plateau green hidden behind a trio of sand traps. This happened for Roger on Remembrance Day (Nov 11) one day before his big birthday. He won’t forget this day. Congratulation Roger.
