Certainly one to keep an eye on depending on the severity of the stroke and which part of the brain it has hit it could be the beginning of the end, learning to walk or talk again in your 80’s is very difficult, and he will be prone to more strokes. Then again he could go on for years, however one to consider for next years list. Of course Kirk Douglas had a major stroke at 79 and is still going. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted June 26, 2019 On 16/08/2018 at 04:06, DevonDeathTrip said: Former Minnesota senator Norm Coleman, has cancer in his neck, throat and lungs... ALMOST some DDP points for unnatural death! Anyway, some bad news, and some good news. The Bad news: He is out fishing, so how bad can he be? The Good news: He is awaiting the results of a Mayo Clinic scan this week to answer that exact question! Former U.S. Sen. Norm Coleman credits an automatic/manual inflatable life vest with saving his life in a weekend boat crash on a northern Minnesota lake. Coleman was fishing on Lake Ada when another boat approached “going full speed and heading right at me,” Coleman wrote in a Facebook post Sunday night. (HINT HINT you can follow him on FB!) The driver of the boat, a father with two children in the boat, was looking at a fishing line and hit Coleman’s fishing boat “broadside and hurtled over my boat,” Coleman wrote. “At the moment of impact, I dove into the water. Coleman normally fishes from the back of his boat while trolling in reverse, but his fish finder in the back “was on the blink,” so he was sitting up on the bow trolling, he wrote. The impact caused the tiller to be sheared off and the seat to be crushed. “Had I been sitting there I would have suffered the same fate,” he wrote. Coleman, 69, announced last summer that he was being treated for stage 4 lung cancer. He was previously diagnosed with throat and neck cancer. “I’ve been facing mortality quite a bit in my battle in the last few years with the Big C,” he wrote. “I dodged a bullet this weekend. Hopefully, I’ll continue to stay a couple steps ahead of the Grim Reaper. Yesterday was a powerful reminder that we don’t totally control our destiny. I’ve been worried more about what my next scan at Mayo this week will show, than I was about the chance of something happening to me while fishing on Lake Ada.

drol 11,923 Posted July 1, 2019 Ershad is now on life support, overall condition is critical and he can not be send abroad for treatment. That's what his Party says. Anyway they also say he is improving and if the trend of improvement continues he will make a full recovery.
