My son's best friend just heard some bad news about his father and was quite upset. The father had a problem with his leg and went into the hospital tomorrow for an operation, where he was told he may lose his leg.
Evidently, Barry had been feeling pain in his leg for a while but only went to the doctor, when the leg became too painful and was turning purple. I have heard of Barry over the years but had never met him until a few weeks ago, when we spent an evening together. I appreciated his wit, positive outlook and reflection about life.
I hope that the operation is successful and they repair the problem without Barry having to lose his leg. I saw that my son was upset as over the years he had grown close to Barry. It is distressing when a friend is going through a difficult medical situation, as it is tricky to know what to do to help.
We have a good medical system so we know that Barry will have the best of care, and he will over time recover. My thoughts go out to Barry, and his son James and his family as they face this upcoming medical crises, and we will be there for them in any way we can.
Update, Barry had his operation and it was a blood clot that was causing his problem, his leg is saved, and he is on the road to recovery. They just have to find out and get rid of the blood clot problem. Good News
