Here's the latest from Betty Douglas who is still hospitalized:

My blood sugar keeps staying High. The last time they checked it it was 300. I haven't been eating a lot I just don't have an appetite. They're saying maybe I can go home tomorrow and have to follow up with the cardiologist I'll probably have to postpone my cataract surgery because they have me on a blood thinner they don't want to take a chance of me bleeding during the cataract surgery and causing problems. I'll keep y'all posted. Thanks for all your concerns.

I just heard that Lion Betty Douglas is in the hospital (St Francis in Bartlett) with an unknown ailment. She's been sick for several days now and hasn't been able to eat. After extensive testing they are not allowing her to have anything at all now in case they need to perform a procedure. She"s scheduled for cataract surgery on the 7th. When I hear any updates on her condition I will pass it on. Right now, she, her family, and Mid-South need your prayers for her to get well soon.

Mid-South Lions... I had a very nice visit with our past president (1990-1991) B G Tatum today on his 94th birthday. He's in the Mississippi Veterans Home at Tradition near Biloxi.

He's in good spirits and even gave me a big "Hotty Toddy" and I'm sure he's watching the Sugar Bowl tonight.

Please keep him and his family in your good thoughts and prayers.
