Thank you all

I only met you once briefly 100 years ago at a tournament, but feel like I know you through your posts on here and your books.

Praying for you!
 
You got this Jay!

FYI - Still my favorite commentated match ever was with you and Mark Wilson in the booth on a really late night US Open match between JJ and Rempe in 1999.
 
OK old man, I don't make mini cues for just anyone. I make them for folks in the game that I admire.
You got one of my first! 2015 Mosconi cup if memory serves.
Most of us here are feeling the Cold Wind(Hu:)

Wake up tomorrow and many more days and realize, that you have made a big impact on so many people.

I have not been posting much lately due to health issues. My doctor here has me on an ongoing course of treatments that will last a couple of months.

It all started about a month ago where i was getting weaker and weaker every day. First (my doctor is a young woman) gave me a series of tests and i had severe anemia. It was affecting my kidneys, liver and bladder.

Some of the procedures are very uncomfortable but if i ever want to play pool again i need to do this. My health comes first.

I was reluctant to do this but im reaching out to billiards family for emotional support. Thanks for reading this.

Are you in the US?
 
Jay, it's been a while since I last saw you. I've played at your house a couple times, once with Dennis and once when you were trying to get back in shape. I also bought your Anniversary, had RKC set it up, and it has been playing fantastic. Anyway, I wish you all the best and I'm sure you will make it back to the table!
 
good luck jay, there are only a handful of us real old timers around left. you are a trouper and will come thru fine i know it.
