He's doing well, actually.
He was involved in a wreck (not his fault) about a year ago, that resulted in multiple injuries which included a shattered scapula (shoulder blade). Put him out of work for a few months and they were almost "sure" he'd have to have surgery to fix the scapula.
But it looks like the healing has been coming well and surgery will NOT be necessary.
So he's back to work and taking it a bit slow while he's recuperating.
