Glenn's Health

[UndertheWire]

I think there will be update before the 6th Dec. When reports start to come out about the recording of the Kennedy Center Awards show, there will be mention of the Eagles and the reason why they aren't there. So long as it's good news, surely it would be better to have it reported that Glenn is recovering from surgery than to repeat a month-old press release.

I went ahead and merged the threads about Glenn's health. In the statement the band released on November 4th, all it said was that "Frey, 66, has had a recurrence of previous intestinal issues, which will require major surgery and a lengthy recovery period.” Since that was about 2 1/2 weeks ago, even though it hasn't been confirmed, I assumed he has had the surgery. I can't think of any reason they would delay - this is a very painful condition that can't be treated with meds so I don't know of any advantage to waiting - it seems like it would just worsen over time. And UTW, I hope you are right about that update.

I would also think he has already had his surgery, and is having some private time for recovery. In this case I would think no news is good news.
I'm sure when he's feeling better, he will release some kind of statement, but I think it would be a good 6 weeks of recovery for this type of thing.
We are all wishing the best for him & hope he's resting up without being bothered by the media.

In such cases, typically no news is good news.

I've checked my Google Alerts every day for any info, and so far, there's been nothing.

He ignored my advice to put out an update before the Kennedy Awards SHow was recorded, so all the reports refer back to the November. There wasn't even a mention of Glenn's health in Don Henley's interview with Howard Stern. I guess we'll have to wait until he turns up at a sporting event or charity do.

I suggest we all write him get well cards / fan letters. I may even put that suggestion on GFO. Here is the address:

Glenn Frey
