My dear friend and regular pool sparring partner, New York Larry Gendler (azb member Larry732), is in the New Britain (CT) Hospital awaiting surgery scheduled for this Friday.
He had been complaining over the past few weeks about stomach discomfort and spasms and they finally figured out that he has internal GI bleeding requiring surgery. In advance of the procedure they have been doing a lot of iv nutrition to get him as strong as possible going into it.
Larry is 92 yo, very active, and can still catch a gear and play run out pool with his silky-smooth stroke. He has done an incredible amount for seniors, veterans and even kids through his teaching and support efforts. He was inducted into the New England Pool & Billiards Hall Of Fame for his amazing work. Here's a Fox61 video from 4 years ago about his induction.

I love this guy and will be heading over to see him later today. I will be happy to pass on any well wishes.
Thanks!
