Ted Baulch suffered a stroke earlier this month and at this moment is in hospital undergoing intensive care. Hopefully in the near future he will be transferred to rehab, but not just yet.

He has a blood clot close to the brain that is at this moment inoperable and he has lost his ability to talk and a high percentage of his mobility.

Dot and the family would like us to know the situation but strongly request that we all respect their privacy in this trying time, and do not attempt to contact them just yet. Dot will keep us updated as things progress.

I can only reiterate that Dot and the family have requested their privacy not be interrupted at this time and I guess it should be understood that this information is for the benefit of 87 and ATA members only at this time and not for general conversation.

If you wish to add comments here I will ensure that they are passed on when the time arises to do so. Ed.
