Hello ED!

Wayne was not the first, is not the only one and will not be the only one
with medical difficulties.

Some names you might recognize:

Doug Myers (Now Deceased)
Bobby Queen (Status Unknown, believed to be deceased)
Alan Hess (I believe confined to a wheelchair)
Frank Vest (Had Cancer, in remission)
Mimi Gallandt (Is in a wheelchair)
Richard Helm (Now deceased, but as a heart transplant recipient, you know
the line he had to walk)

You might even remember Christopher Baker? (Now deceased but was crippled)

Just to name a few..

These people did not, for those still with us, do not, parade about their
health issues to gain brownie points in the name of being a sympathy whore.
