All, I was able to have a conversation with Jacques minutes ago. He will get on the Forum this afternoon and provide an update directly. He sounded really good but his surgery has been delayed until early next week. I will continue to provide updates during Jacques recovery period until he can return to the Forum. Jeff

All, I spoke with Jacques last Friday. I just don't think he felt up to sending us an update. He will undergo surgery today (Monday) and I will talk with his wife, Susan, later this afternoon. Jacques told me he will not be on the Forum for the initial 10 days or so following surgery. I will update everyone later today. Thank you for the kind wishes, Jeff

All, I just spoke with Susan. Jacques surgery went really well for him this morning. He is already out of recovery and returned home around lunch today. Susan said he has some really tough days ahead trying to get back to where he will be able to walk. I will update everyone every few days until Jacques is back able to communicate with all of you on the Forum. Jeff
