That is pretty rough. No Sternum? Wow. Get better Mike so you can get back here and make fun of me.

Our long time board member @MikeG has been absent from the board for at least a couple weeks. I have recently learned he remains in the hospital for treatment.  At risk of sharing info that is no

Mike suggested putting up some pics while we were watching the game.  I haven't provided a lot of details on Mike because I didn't want to invade his privacy.  He shrugged that off.  But he's been hospitalized since 9/21 - very serious stuff.  Multiple surgeries.  If you know anything about being bedridden that long, you know he has a long way back in rehab, just being able to regain the strength to walk again, not to mention the actual surgery recovery and risks.  But he was positive and resilient.  We talked a lot of Bull and we discussed watching the hoops game Sunday.  But he has a pretty busy medical calendar so we'll have to see.  Those of you that really know Mike from his nearly 20 years around the board and even longer time around USF Athletics, you'll be comforted to know that while he no longer has a sternum, he still has his salty wit and sarcastic tone.  It's set aside only when he's putting a move on one of the nurses.  :)

You are a good man for visiting him. Well done.

He’s watching the game from his bed.  

 

One of you looks pretty bad and the other one is in a hospital bed.  😁

Get well soon Mike.

Kinda puts everything in perspective. So glad you've made it through some of the rough stuff, bud, hope the journey to go is a lot easier. Prayers still going.

I only know you through your interaction with this board. My kids only know you because I have filled them in on what I know about you before we say a prayer for you. They are always asking me for updates. We will still be praying for you and your speedy recovery!
