I do not know his complete medical condition, but if his immune system is compromised, he would not be a candidate for a bypass. I know his medical condition has been fragile for sometime now, sad to say.
If the pool community can come together and raise over $150,000 for Jeannette Lee, I sure do hope we can come together and raise $10,000 for Larry Nevel can fulfill his bucket list of eating a Philly cheesesteak, going to Sea World, and seeing some sights in California in the last 6 months of his life. If anybody was worthy of a little compassion, it is this guy. If the thousands of people who know Larry contributed $1 or $2, he might fulfill his last wishes. I hope he does.
Karl Boyes sent me a private message this morning and said he's going to try to raise some funds at the Mosconi Cup for Larry by selling a Mosconi Cup souvenir. How cool is that!? He remembers Larry from the IPT. It warms my heart that our brethren on the other side of the pond cares enough about Larry to help him. I've become a huge fan of Karl in recent years, even before this kind gesture.
