<br> 
<br>  Joan!
<br> 
<br>  Thank you so much for informing me about Fred! I am much distressed by
<br>this
<br>  turn of events, but hope that Fred's usual G G & P (= Guts, Gaul &
<br>  Presumption!  That's what we country types from Oklahoma call
<br>"chutzpah.")
<br>  will see him thru to a solid recovery, so that he can get at his memoirs.
<br>  I shall, of course, write to him, and send him some of the silly pieces
<br>of
<br>  Okie-&-Otherwise humor stored on my hard drive.
<br> 
<br>  It was thoughtful of you to let the ADS know about this.  How are YOU
<br>doing?
<br> 
<br>  I know Fred greatly enjoys classical music. I assume he would enjoy a
<br>tape
<br>  or two?
<br> 
<br>  Let me know if there is anything I can do to help out!
<br>

<br>  I'm sorry to have to give you the news that Fred Cassidy had a stroke on
<br>   Tuesday morning.  He is in Scottsdale, Arizona, where he had planned to
<br>   spend January and February writing the memoirs of his childhood in
<br>Jamaica.
<br>   It sounds as if the stroke was relatively minor, but at this point he is
<br>   still unable to swallow or to talk.  He has regained some of the use of
<br>his
<br>   right hand, and can walk with no trouble.  (In fact, he took off so fast
<br>in
<br>   the walker that the physical therapists had to chase after him and slow
<br>him
<br>   down!)  He will probably be in the hospital for at least another week.
<br>If
<br>   you would like to let him know you are thinking of him, you can send
<br>cards
<br>   to this address:
<br>   
<br>   Frederic G. Cassidy
<br>   Scottsdale Memorial Osborn Hospital
<br>   Room 328
<br>   7200 E. Osborn Rd.
<br>   Scottsdale, AZ 85251
<br>   
<br>   I'll let you know when he is moved to another kind of care facility, and
<br>   provide that address.
