Update August 20th;
Some commentors have taken offence that I have put up this page.
In defiance of the clinical realities of my uncle's condition, they berate me for not waiting for a miracle and accuse me of trying to "cash in".
Vulgar and abusive comments have been deleted.
All others will remain because they have a right to express their views.

Having said that, I would like to draw attention to the fact that I put up the post on Sunday the 17th. The third sentence of the post speaks of what would be happening on Monday the 18th. Any fair reader will see that I was talking about what we could expect after the weekend.

I was hoping to offer more definitive news of my uncle by now, but the fact that the lines of communication have gone quiet at one end, compounded by massive time zone differences, means that I'm pretty much in the dark. Only when I get confirmation of the inevitable, will I put up an R.I.P with the appropriate dates.

This page was put up as a focal point for fans from disparate and varied forums to come together and share their thoughts and feelings.
Anybody can post here without having to register, become a member or be bombarded with advertisements.
It's done for the fans. I gain nothing from it.

Thank you.
