I just spoke to [livejournal.com profile] gingerpook. [livejournal.com profile] gunthar is doing much better. They have ruled out appendicitis and now believe it is related to chronic pain issues he's had. He is hooked up to an IV and is getting the really good drugs. His blood tests have come back good so far. Ginger said he may even be going home as soon as tonight.
[livejournal.com profile] gingerpook also told me to pass her thanks on to [livejournal.com profile] fairoriana and [livejournal.com profile] wiredferret for their help in getting someone to [livejournal.com profile] gunthar

Holy crap. What a night. [livejournal.com profile] hellbob & I had just finished dinner w/ a guest and were sitting around chatting when the phone rang.
[livejournal.com profile] hellbob looked at the caller id and said "Who is [[livejournal.com profile] wiredferret' RealName]? Now since this is someone I don't think I have *ever* talked to on the phone I figured something must be wrong.
When I answered the phone [livejournal.com profile] wiredferret asked if I'd been on LJ and said [livejournal.com profile] gunthar needed help.
I got on the computer and saw this post.

I opened my address book to see if I had a phone number for [livejournal.com profile] gunthar and I didn't, but I had an address. I told Wired that I was going to call 911.
When I got the 911 I told the operator what was happening and they transferred me to the one where he lives.
They said they would be sending both police and ambulance.
Then I waited. And hit refresh on LJ pages & email. And waited. And hit refresh.
When [livejournal.com profile] jmanna saw the posts she called [livejournal.com profile] gingerpook who rushed home.
No details yet on what happened/what's wrong.
According to [livejournal.com profile] jmanna he's at Fairview and Ginger is with him. He's heavily medicated for pain. They're thinking appendicitis or something similar. No confirmation yet.
You have to love the internets. [livejournal.com profile] fairoriana in Boston saw the post, called [livejournal.com profile] wiredferret in Seattle, who called people here in Minneapolis until she found someone who had his address.

If any of y'all ever need to find my contact info, it's in a flocked post, way back at the beginning of my LJ. It is back dated to July 12, 1970.

I'm still worried about [livejournal.com profile] gunthar, although a little less so now that I know he's at the hospital and his wife is with him, but I really have to get to sleep. I'll have the phones near the bed if anyone calls with an update.

A bridge over the river collapsed.
Neither hellbob or I take that route regularly and we were both home when it happened, so you out-of-towners don't need to worry about us.
