Everyone, we got this update from Addy.
Billy contracted a chest infection that affected his heart and kidneys. He's in critical condition in a hospital in the UK. His family is keeping constant watch. Addy has had brief phone calls with him. He's told us to hope for the best but prepare for the worst.
This is devastating news!
Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you everyone. According to his doctors his chances of recovery are nil and they are now focusing on keeping him as comfortable as possible. I wish I had some better news, I really do... it just felt wrong to ask for you prayers and wellwishes without letting you know the situation. Please continue to pray and send out your thoughts to him. Billy's still keeping his chin up and I'm trying my very best to follow his example.
PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?

I don't know much.
By from what I've read I had the feeling Billy is a friendly and humorful individual, open and still standing his point although he didn't have to convince everyone of it just to be right. Sad news.
Don't give up, billy. And however it turns out, I wish for you to spend good moments

"Death makes angels of us all
And gives us wings
Where we had shoulders
Smooth as raven's
Claws
No more money, no more fancy dress
This other kingdom seems by far the best
Until it's other jaw reveals incest
And loose obedience to a vegetable law.
I will not go
Prefer a Feast of Friends
To the Giant Family."

Thank you all, your sentiments have been relayed to him by his daughter and he cried, he appreciated it. He mostly sleeps now, he's on lots of meds and painkillers. His condition is considered terminal now. We must pray for his comfort, and that his mind and heart would be joyful and at ease. This is so hard. Thank you all so much.
