Dan was admitted to the hospital this morning with low blood pressure. From brother Enoch...

Dan was admitted to the Emergency Room this morning.

If you’ll recall, some months back he was admitted for feeling dizzy, then faint, then became disoriented, and finally unresponsive.

It was thought at the time he had mistakenly taken someone else’s meds.

But I am told this is not at all likely this time around.

So, please say some prayers.

Thx
Enoch

I just recently finished reading Dan's newest book (available here). "Was it Something I Said?" is a collection of Dan's writings and poems, some new, some posted previously at protein wisdom; with an included narrative history lesson of the early, heady days of blogging on teh intratubes.

Dan is a true scholar, a graduate of Dartmouth, a teacher of Shakespeare and English Literature, and a friend. He's given me some openings into bloggery things that no one else bothered to do; I'm happy to say I'm a friend of Dan's.

So, before this gets any worse, Dan, get back on your damned feet and back to busy!
