I had been trying to get ahold of my attorney and friend Bill since February 4th and was getting the run around. Finally got an appointment for a week and a half later which got cancelled the day before (his secretary said he had to go into the hospital for a "procedure" but would be out the next day). After that I still couldn't get hold of him. Yesterday I told his secretary that I was tired of playing games and it has been over a month since I first called.
About three hours later I got a call from him at home (the number for which I had misplaced).
Well, it seems that he hadn't been avoiding me. In early January he had a very minor stroke but while at the hospital a doctor friend told him he wanted to do an MRI. The MRI reveals that he has stage four lung cancer. While they were draining some fluid beside a lung they accidentally collapsed it which resulted in him going into a coma for a week or two.
Long story short, he was in the hospital for most of both January and February and I'm feeling like crap for getting pissed about not being able to get hold of him.
Bill is one who does not talk religion or politics -- period. So I don't know whether or not he is a believer (I'm seeing him for lunch Friday and I'm gonna ask him), but any prayers would be appreciated.
