A bit of an update on our dear friend Jeffrey. His Sister Lael Alston, called and we had a nice talk about Jeffrey. From what she said, which came from her other sister who is closer to Jeffrey geographically, he suffered a Large Stroke on the Left side of his Brain which usually affects the persons ability to speak as is the case with Jeffrey as well as other abilities I would assume. He is alert though as she said when his folks were there his eyes followed them around the room which is a good sign.
But shortly thereafter if I understood her as my cell phone wasn't receiving very clearly he fell asleep again. That too is not a bad thing as when the brain is injured/damaged it tires out easily. I've been all through that many years back as that's what happened to me. The brain needs time to repair itself, hopefully he didn't suffer any complete loss of any of the various areas within the brain. Also in case your not aware, our brains renew themselves of dead brain cells ever three to four months.
So if your inclined to say a prayer/s for our fellow model railroader Jeffrey now is the time he can sure use them!
Think positive, it doesn't cost anymore! Ask for a miricle, you just never know??

Ps: If you want to send a card here is the address of where he is at.
