If I remember correctly, they were touring in 2010 and I believe they had to cancel or postpone a few concert dates due to Don's "illness". We need to check in the 2010 threads regarding concert dates. And I may be totally off on this but I think the rumor was he had a stent(s) put in.
Like I said, I may be totally off on this but the way it sounded at the Runaway it could have been similar to his Dad's medical situation but his father's was probably a lot more serious than Don's.
I went back to re-read the thread again from 2010. From what ya'll said 7 years ago, you heard a stent was put in his heart and then they came back with knee. I'm starting to think it was his heart. Why would a doctor save his life for a knee problem.

Brothers for life. RIP Glenn
I'm not sure I believe in fate, but I know that crossing paths with Glenn Lewis Frey in 1970 changed my life forever, and it eventually had an impact on the lives of millions of other people all over the planet. It will be very strange going forward in a world without him in it. But, I will be grateful, every day, that he was in my life. Rest in peace, my brother.

I'm guessing a stent too. They are such a common thing now.
My bnl went in for a cath and got one today and my boss has had 7!
HB and Va, fantastic job on all this and we appreciate it so much!

Thanks - I had remembered something about his knee and also wondered how that could be life threatening. The stent sounds more like it. My BIL had one put in after a HA last year and is doing great. Sadly, Don is right when he said if his father had the same medical advances back then he could have lived many more years. I would bet that is one of many the reason reason he exercises so diligently. I guess we can say we are all grateful he is doing well.
HB and VA, thank you so much for your all your diligence in recounting Don's Q&A session. Sounds like a great evening and well worth the cost and the travel. Delighted you all had a wonderful time and were able to have such insights into Dons life and music that we would not normally have the chance to hear. Maybe if he does another such session I might get to go. What I would have given to have had that chance with GlennIts such a pity he wasn't around for these new ventures.

HB - Very nice of you to put all the Q&A on here!! It's great to go back and reread - certainly a lot of questions!
I thought I would post our photo. I cleared out some of the Runaway Tours logos in the background...I think it makes the photos a bit too busy!
Great pic LTEF!!!![]()
