JULY 16 UPDATE- JEFF BACK AT EMORY

Tina and Jeff headed for the Emory ER around 4am this morning. Jeff's migraines have become unbearable even for a tough guy like Jeff. The CT Scan came back negative for ?? and everything is fine with his head, but until they can locate the cause of the migraines, Jeff will be at Emory.

The doctors are looking into the possibility of Jeff having meningitis and once his platelets increase, he will have a spinal tap. Apparently, this is not uncommon for a person with cancer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meningitis

The good news is that once they can minimize or eliminate the migraines, Jeff should be doing 100 times better. Tina also said that the food drive is going great! Karen Webster brought a spaghetti bake on Sunday night and Jeff was able to eat 2 servings.

Coach,

My heart goes out to you and your family and I just want you to know that I'm praying for you and thinking about you.

I'm so thankful to be one of the fortunate one to play for you over the years. I'm overwhelmed with all the good times and laughable moments on the football and baseball field. I still from time to time find myself hollering "Field that thing it's fair in Austrailia," or "Does your sister play?"

Man to man, I really appreciate all you did for us and the way your coaching my brother Ben. Your a good man and you've had an impact on a lot of boys that are turning out to be good men. I'm really thankful for that.

I love you and appreciate you and hope to see you better soon.

P.S. I remember spending hours with Josh Mann, Mike Easterling, and Brandon Smalls coming up with "Coach Blunt's Famous Sayings." I lost the paper somehow and have kicked myself ever since. But, me and Josh still talk about the day you wiffed the fungo bat three times, threw it in the outfield and yelled "PRUNE CRAP!!!"
