We went to American Lake VA today. Found out that Gator doesn’t have pneumonia! He has bronchitis…..I guess that’s better. They gave him a really strong antibiotic called Avelox, (the same stuff they gave him last month!) the doctor seemed to think it would work. He said if there is some kind of bacterial infection in Gator’s lungs this medicine should take care of it. His voice is sounding much better.

Karyn called while we were in Lakewood. She said while she was in Burns Oregon the weekend after the Merle concert, some bikers came in to the bar she was in and she told them her daddy was a biker. They asked her his name and she told them they wouldn’t know him because he was from Washington. Then she told him his name was Gator and they said “THE Gator?” then she showed them the digital photos of her dad on her keychain we gave her and they said yep! That’s him! They heard about him online! Pretty wild….they told her to tell him he was in their prayers….

Gator’s been in a lot of people’s prayers for the past 9 months and its working!
