Brad, one of my best buddies in the whole world ran into a very nasty mosquito while on vacation last week in Mexico.
Brad is now ensconced in a Los Angeles hospital with a nasty case of viral meningitis. He became ill Monday morning on his way back to Alaska. He made it as far as L.A. and then staggered off to the hospital with a screaming eyepopping headache and a temperature of 102 degrees F.
He'll be in his inner city hospital (why couldn't the cab traveled another ten minutes to the posh Beverly Hills Hospital?) through the weekend.
We're all very worried about him, but he's doing better and it's very good that his flavor of meningitis is viral and not bacterial!
By the way, Brad was a co-winner in last year's Westchester Lagoon Ice Classic. When I chat with him tomorrow, I'll get his date pick.
