[TheForge] Tom Clark update Feb 15th

[Roger R Degner]

This is forwarded to the list from another blacksmith

I just talked with Barry McFarland, Ozark School of Blacksmithing, 
and this morning he talked (by phone) directly with Tom Clark.  Tom 
is weak after the surgery but in very good spirits.  Since the 
surgery went so well Tom was placed directly in "intermediate care" 
after the surgery  (i.e. skipped "intensive care" ward).  The 
Urologist and Surgeon did find the cancer in Tom's Bladder and also 
his Prostate but feel it is now arrested by their complete removal of 
both these organs.  Tom's prognosis for recovery remains as optimistic!

Keep Tom in your thoughts and Prayers,

Kent
