Rich is in ICU and won't be able to receive flowers right now so you may want to wait till tomorrow to send them
Thank you Jack for keeping us up to date. I will remain in prayer for Rich. What is his family situation? Let us know when he can have visitors. Can we call the hospital to learn about visitors?
Thanks again,
Ed
OMG that's horrible news!!! bawlin)0
For those of you that believe in a higher power, please keep him in your prayers for a speedy, uncomplicated recovery.
Yes, Jack please let us know. I'd like to visit him too, if they allow. Poor Rich. He's such a great guy.. kind, thoughtful, always willing to do for others.
Rich, our thoughts are with you!!!!! =+grouphu9
Jack, please let us know if his family needs anything... anything at all. You know we all want to help out if we can.
In light of this awful event please make yourself aware of the symptoms of stroke, in case you're ever in a situation where you or another seems to be having one.

There is also another symptom that doctors now use, and that is whether the persons tongue droops to one side.
When Riches son gets back to me I will update everyone.
Rich is going in for another MRI, he's in stable condition but having a tough time getting his blood press. under control.
Jack, thanks for keeping us updated. Rich and his family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Holly & family
Our thoughts and prayers are with Rich and his family. Get well soon.
Get well soon rich hope your ok
I can't believe it. We were all having a great time yesterday at the garage.
We are all pulling for you MugMan. Your in our prayers.
I cant express how distraught I am over this. As Howard said, we were all togeter here yesterday and he was fine.
Muggy, get well soon my friend, we're all pulling for you
Get well soon, MugMan! Prayers said and keeping good thoughts for you and your family!
Jack... anything new? Is he still in ICU?
His son hasn't called yet and I don't want to keep bugging him, if he don't call by noon I'll call him.
Thanks Jack
Thanks Jack. I don't mean to bother you with it, because I know you're shaken up about it. It's just that we're very worried about him, and feel helpless. You know we'd all do anything we could to help Rich, and the waiting and wondering is horrible.
So again my apologies.. and my thanks.
No apologies needed, we all feel the same way, the waiting is for news is.... well you know, you want to do something but there is nothing you can do.
Just got some news, Rich is still in ICU and is sleeping on and off and they are waiting for results of results of two more Cat Scans that he had. No visitors yet.
Thanks jack
well if we can't visit i say we fill the parking lot outside with our cars and a banner and sit it out in the bar next door till he notices them.
Ill bring my tuba
In light of current events i would like to pay tribute by flying the flag of my favorite hero until he is back fighting the battle of empty Mugs everywhere. "It's a Bird... It's a Plane... No wait its a red VW Beetle... It's MUG MAN!!!" We Love you Mug Man get better soon.

For those who wish to join me you can find the image at http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f43/Skibumtgm/MugMan.jpg
to be honest i kinda want this on a tee shirt
Thanks, Tyler for your willingness to share your creation with us! There's no more fitting way to pay tribute and honor our beloved MugMan clap2-*
I know that once MugMan is allowed visitors he's going to have a truckload of us visiting him. I think it would be wonderful if we could get this put on Tshirts, and when we visit we could wear them! Imagine how much that would cheer him up?
Jack, thank you for keeping us updated. You're our lifeline of information right now, and we truly appreciate it.
Mugman, we're praying for you! Hoping you'll be well soon. =+grouphu9
Greg, I don't think they allow tubas in hospital zones.... SHHHHHHHHHHH thumpup)-
But they do allow old VW's %$oldcit
If he's not in a room overlooking the parking lot, he won't see them 01cry
This is on the Kennedy site. You can send in-hospital "e-greetings" to the patients, if you'd like to send him a note. They'll print it out and deliver it to him.
http://www.kennedyhealth.org/patients-and-visitors/send-e-greetings.html
I'm down with the shirts, even if we just get Iron Ons from Best Buy
do they have to be from best buy i like stapels or office max better
Which has better quality?
No I was just suggesting.
Great idea for the shirts, who wants to run with it?

Me! When will we visit? Thursday or Friday works for me.
Great Greg, can you have shirts by then?
His son is going to let me know when he can have visitors and we'll plan from there.
I don't have an Iron, KV?
Any time, Jack. =wink= I figured that was better than nothing at this point, since he isn't allowed visitors yet. At least we can send him some little notes letting him know we're thinking about him!
Greg, thanks for handling the tshirt project. Since we can't see MugMan yet it will give you some time to work on it. thumpup)- Let us know what we need to do..
Yes, I actually have an iron...
By run with it I didn't know you ment work on it. I don't have a printer either.
Greg, on the Staples website you can do it all online. You just upload the pic and voila!
Id rather someone else take this project.
Now that we got our mug man flags lets get some variety in there.

?/banghea?/
Mike just called and Rich can have visitors tomorrow =+grouphu9
I'll do the shirts, who wants one and what size do you take?
3xl, Please
At staples it's 2-4 weeks after the art w@%# is approved, so that leaves the VW emblem out, they won't print a logo of another Co.
I could have them done where all our shirts ar done then when we get them we could see him as a group sometime???
Ill put in for a large there bud let me knwo what the cost is. Also i just printed this full page and it gets a little pixlated not sure if anyone can enlarge it cleaner i only have snag it here at work. If only they would give me illustrator and photoshop here i would of been pumping these things out like crazy... i mean i would of done my work like i shoudl of been all day lol.
Anyway put me down for a large. what time were you guys goign up tomorrow Celly and i were thinking about takeing a ride up after work if we could get in.
here is just the logo so you dont print out all the blue jack
(http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f43/Skibumtgm/MugmanLogo.jpg)
http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f43/Skibumtgm/MugmanLogo.jpg
Plus, we need a larger file size.
you can get the Iron On ones that greg was talking about they are like 10 bucks for a pack and you can put it on any shirt you want. so in short if you want one to wear go get a tee shirt, print out the logo the size you want, cut it out, iron it on, then sport it as you wish. i did my South Jersey Camping Club shirt that way. this is easy and take the work off of jack.
Great idea, do your own shirts clap2-*
Hey do I get a refund for my 3xl. ;-)
Where do you order the Iron Ons??
Just about any store that sells printing paper.
Thanks, Jack. I didn't know they sold it. I guess I'll stop by Staples for the Iron On paper, AC Moore for the Tshirt, and then print out that bad boy.
Guessing I'll go down to see Rich on Thursday or Friday.
When are some other people going??
I wish Rich the very best of luck, and hope he has a full recovery.
In which Kennedy hospital is he in. I don't knoe the area that well. I see there is 3 locations.
He's at the Washington Township location.
You can get them pretty much anywhere CVS Walmart staples office max AC Moore Marshall's to name a few. Pretty much anyplace you can buy printer paper.
Thanks Tyler thumpup)-
My thoughts are with Rich, Connie and his family. Get well soon buddy!!!
Love the Super-pics guys, I'm sure Rich will too.
I fly home tomorrow afternoon so we can go see him Wed or Thur night.

I was talking with celly about maybe visiting tonight not sure what time but after work for sure so that puts us in the 6pm range greg. i will talk to him and get back to you.

OK, I called and visiting hours are 9am - 6:30pm for ICU
Saw MugCrankyMan this morning and outside of him being cranky and bitching a lot #@rofl3 (that could be a good sign) he seems to be doing very good. **^bana0 Ya You %$oldcit
Mike (his son) is getting his iPad for him, maybe that will un-crank him clap2-*
I'm sure he will love seeing everyone.
I gave him a SuperMugMan shirt and they got the basket the club sent.
I am wishing the very best for him. I wish I could get down there to see him.

I can't make it down there till about 12:00 or so... some of us w@%# for a living and have to put some hours in ... #@rofl3
Plus I want to pick him up some goodies...
Jack,I can meet you there...
Just left the Mug Man and happy to report they are moving him out of ICU as we speak ... Strike that as I type.

So glad to hear that Rich is in a regular room and doing better. :jump4jo":
Dave and I saw Rich for only a few min. today, they were getting him out of bed and having him try walking so we didn't stay.
Dave and I picked up his car and got it to my house, will try to start working on it tomorrow

Glad they are starting to get him up and around.
Now that jack has his car i was advising him to milk this till everything he was trying to get done on it is fixed #@rofl3 #@rofl3 #@rofl3. I know he has a carb over there that needs to get put in &^rofl &^rofl
It's a good sign that they're getting him up and moving already thumpup)- Plus, knowing Rich, he was tired of laying around anyway....
Tyler, good idea... that's a great recovery gift for the MugMan/ =wink=
Everything will be worked on!!
I'll be available all day sunday, if u guys are working on it! *snoopy) I'll bring [coffepot)<
clap2-* Sooo glad to hear Rich is doing better. :jump4jo":
Yeah, me too. thumpup)- Now not sure if I'm going to be able to make it down there to the hospital due to work schedule. sad0013=
Met kv at hospital today but couldn't see Rich he is being transferred to Magee Rehab that is part Jefferson today.
Yeah, bummed that I couldn't see him, but at least he knows we were there thumpup)- He must be making a great recovery to be heading to rehab already. Keep up the good work, Rich! We know you'll be out of rehab soon too, and back home in the arms of your family. =+grouphu9
What is the address for Magee rehab, Jefferson???
http://www.google.com/search?btnG=1&pws=0&q=+Magee+rehab
http://www.mageerehab.org/stroke-rehab.php
So great to hear of his improvement!! thumpup)- He's getting there & stubborn enough to make it I'm sure -
m
Magee is a great facility
I was hoping to see Rich today, but when I got there he was sleeping. Connie said Rich's room mate kept Rich awake all night with his snoring. I was afraid I would wake him by talking to much so I just said I was thinking of him, and I left. I'm sure he would like to see everybody when he feels better.
The parking is not the best by the rehab.
Not sure if I'm going to be able to make that trip again, with work, family, etc.. So please give Rich my best if anyone gets to see him.
I hope he got to enjoy some of the goodies I left for him yesterday thumpup)-
I stopped in to see Rich Wednesday at Kennedy and was able to pray for him and his family. I think he will be in rehab for a couple of weeks. There was valet parking at Kennedy so it was not a problem. I wonder if there is handicap parking at Magee? I hope to visit him this coming Wednesday. He has an intense desire to hold his grandaughter again that must only help his rehab progress.
Great Ed!! & even though this is a frustrating time for him, he could use the time to catch up on some needed rest - unfortunatlely his snoring roomate hinders that a bit - but still. Really glad to hear he is still on the right track, and without a doubt children are a good motivation to get better asap! While I worked with him he seemed to be a very calm but driven person, and I am guessing it is this drive that is helping him. I expect to see him in not so long of a time!
Matt
Any news on how Rich is doing at Magee?
I can't believe all this happened while I was on vacation. I didn't have internet access.
My prayers are with Rich.
Mike sasys Rich is doing well and settled in his routine, had him up walking today but is sleeping a lot because of his Meds.
That's what heavy duty blood pressure meds do to you until your body adjusts to them.
I'm glad to hear they have him up walking around. That's our champ, MugMan!! clap2-*
anyone know where he is at Jeff if i ever get a break from work i will walk down to see him

Cool thanks buddy
Does anybody know how Rich is doing? :confused04:;
I was wondering the same thing!!
Katie was just asking me how he is....
I did receive an email from Isabelle's mom last night that said he's improving more each day, but no detailed information. Perhaps we'll find out more information Saturday night at Isabelle's event.
Rich text me yesterday, he will be in Megee 6 more weeks. sorry, I forgot to pass it along.
Wow , 6 more weeks.....
It wont be the same until we see him post something here.

John, I couldn't agree with you more. It's not the same..
Yeah, he'll be back on the forum in no time!
In his words, "New update, I'll be paroled in 3-4 weeks."
Time frame Looking better!
Tell him if he violates parole, it's back in the clink for him! ( I oughta know...) %$oldcit
Great to hear! Just as long as he does not overdo it!
Don't bother going to see Rich, i'ts family only, I found out the hard way tonight. He's still doing OK tho.
He told me to stay away and just keep shinning his R--------. There is also a stomach virus going through the hospital.
Wow... thanks for the info, Jack. Will keep him in thought for a continued, successful recovery.
Rich may be home in a week!!! He said he's making progress but to much news to text. 2@@cool

Thanks for the update Jack. I was going to be in Philly on Tuesday and was going to stop in and see Mugman.
Rich just told me his son Mike is in Kennedy right now for appendix surgery. Man they can't get a brake..
Oh good grief, poor Mike. That's usually a quick & easy surgery and recovery though, so he'll be good as new in a very short time. ( I remember mine...)
Keeping you in our thoughts too, Mike! 09group:
Wow, poor Mike... poor Connie!!
That is good news about Rich though. Every few steps count!! Keep at it Rich!!!
We'll keep the whole family in our thoughts. =+grouphu9
Rich might be home Friday.

It's good news that you are walking. When I saw you at the hospital you where asleep. Connie said your room mate kept you up all night. I wanted to tell you to keep your spirits up. I speak from knowledge. Every time I go to therapy I see a lot of people in worse shape then me.
Again, I wish you the best of luck.
Mugman lives. Ill post updates when I can

Planking (or the Lying Down Game) is an activity consisting of lying face down in an unusual or incongruous location. Both hands must touch the sides of the body and having a photograph of the participant taken and posted on the Internet is an integral part of the game.
