Al Sweeney UPDATE
Just got a call from Diana, Al's girlfriend. Al is now in the hospital with pneumonia and renal failure. It looks like he will be going into hospice care very shortly. Diana is still working out the details. She promised to call with more updates as things progressed. She asked me to let his friends know the situation and also said I could give her number out should others wish to call to get more news, offer support & encouragement, etc. 603-801-4494
We knew this day was coming, but it is never something we expect to happen anytime soon. Al is a great member of our hobby. We wish him and Diana all the best.

Re: Al Sweeney UPDATE
Called Diana. She is getting over the flu which her doctor says she got from the hospital visiting Al. She hasn't seen him in a week due to her illness. He is now in a nursing home as he needs 24/7 care in large part due to his interrelated feeding and breathing issues. Food and drink can get into his lungs and he won't take a feeding tube. The care provided involves making him comfortable (morphine); all other meds have been stopped. Not quite hospice but from what she says it might as well be. Hope for the best, but sad to say nothing encouraging.

Re: Al Sweeney UPDATE
If he won't take food and they take him off medication he won't last long. Al is a fighter and I guess anything is possible. Just a shame when we loose one of us, especially a member like Al.
