Posted: 10/23/07 at 1:30amYes! Get well!
#5re: Robert Goulet in Critical Condition
Posted: 10/23/07 at 1:38amThe warm wishes are nice - but this is not a condition that you "get well from" - its a fatal disease. But warm thoughts are certainly with his family and with Bob right now.

Posted: 10/23/07 at 3:38amThey're talking about a lung transplant - very risky but it does give him a chance. Let's hope...

Posted: 10/23/07 at 6:53amWhat a terrible thing to happen. I hope they can move forward soon with the transplant.

Posted: 10/23/07 at 7:50amI wonder if they find a lung transplant for him if that will increase his chance of survival---or simply delay the inevitable.

- Maybe they had family to tell first. Or they wanted to exaughst treatments before they made a public announcement. Prayers go out to him and his family.

As good as dead. Pity. Remember when he locked Carol in the trunk? That's why she became a holy roller christian and he went to aa. What a voice and what a lesson in how to turn your life around.
By the way, he hates being called "Bob". Vera calls him Row-bear, the french way.
Anybody got any good Row-bear stories?

Posted: 10/23/07 at 2:44pmChicago theatre director Michael Maggio had Cystic Fibrosis in the late 1980's. He had what was at the time a revolutionary double lung transplant. It gave him another ten years of life.

Aww, that's so sad. My thoughts go out to him and his family.
Wasn't he a heavy smoker when he was younger?
#17re: Robert Goulet in Critical Condition
Posted: 10/23/07 at 4:01pmThe disease actually isn't necessarily related to a person's smoking history.

Posted: 10/23/07 at 4:06pmI understand that. My grandfather had emphysema (sp?) all his life and he never smoked. I'm just curious.

Posted: 10/23/07 at 4:24pmI knew a lovely lady who never smoked that died from this disease. It's a terrible way to go. She hung on for a couple of years. It's so sad to see someone with such a powerful voice have to go through this.
