I would just like all of you guys to know that Bill was admitted to the hospital about a week ago. This is information that came from a fellow member of Bill's Tube radio forum (tuberadioforum.com) I will copy and paste the original paragraph from that member on June 4th. { I just wanted to let everyone know that Bill Cahill was admitted to the hospital saturday evening. The infection in his leg has took a turn for the worst and he is in alot of pain. They have the infection under control now but it looks like he might be in there for awhile. He is all alone and has no family or friends close by so needless to say he's miserable right now. Please pray for him to have a speedy recovery and to help ease his pain. I will pass along any information as soon as i recieve it.} There is quite a few replies to that thread on that forum and i will provide the link to that thread for all to view, as there is updated contact information in there. Bill Lives in Florida, so all times will be EST. http://www.tuberadioforum.com/t2395-prayers-for-bill-cahill

Hope someone is looking after his dog(s?) for him as well. His phone number is listed at the above link and says he would love some calls.

Get well soon Bill.

Any updates on Bill? This topic was started just before I left on my two week cruise. I just got back home yesterday. Bill hasn't been logged in here since the middle of May now. I hope he is okay.

Thanks, guys. I am now home. Got back this evennning, after a fiasco getting my dog bck out of kennel.
She is sleeping safely on our chair behind me as I tyupe this.
Thanks for all your prayers, guys. I have some way to go, but, am doing better.

 :) Hi, guys. Thannks for your wishes, and, prayers. Actually, it was Friday I got home. I then had a fiasco getting my dog back from the kennel, but, she is home, safe, and, sound.
I got cellulitis in both legs, left one the worst, when I dropped a smalll filing cabinet on my legs while moving it. I tried caring for it with neo sporum, but, it failed, and, it got very infected. Ended up in emergency room at St. Anthonny's hospital, and, admitted that Saturday night. I was given manny treatments of very heavy anti biotics, which cut it alot, but, they were also destroying the good cultures in my stomach, so, I was a very sick puppy for two weeks.

I appreciate all ghe kind thoughts, and, prayers for my recovery.
My troubles aren't over yet.
While both legs are greatly improved, and, I am slowly getting stronger again, my new primary dr. is trying to have me committed because he thinks blind people are incapable of caring for themselves. His latest fiasco is he is sending someone out to bathe me. Hmph!
There Will be words this morning..
And, I'm about to find me a new primary care physician.
Please continue to keep me in your prayers, as welll as my younger brother, whom just underwent tripple bypass surgery.
Thank You......

Great to see you back, Bill! Get better soon! Don't be afraid to tell the good doctor to f**k off! Most people seem to be afraid to even talk to thier doctors for some reason but they are just people ;D
