I just received word that Meteor Blades nearly died last week. He had a pulmonary embolism, and his heart had stopped beating until an ER team revived him.
His recovery is expected to take months, and as such, he will be taking time off from guest blogging on the site. The choice is an obvious one -- he needs to focus on getting better. So here's wishing him well on the road to recovery. I'm trying to find out where we can send flowers or an Amazon wishlist so does of us who want to send him a little get-well gift or note can do so.
Update: Meteor has written a diary on the subject. He also said he didn't want anything sent to him. He'd rather you guys spend money on defeating Republicans or donating to the Native American Rights Fund (his favorite cause).
