Just e-mailed Donny, and as Gary said Donny is having a biopsy done on some skin tissue on his eye lids in prep for some other work that needs to be done ...
Our thoughts and prayers are with him ...

As Gary also says "Gettin' old ain't for wimps" ...

Donny my praise for you.
Please keep one thing in mind; be concerned if you are able to do something about what is happening -- If not sit back and have faith, don’t let anything your joy.

Having said all that I’m betting you’re gonna be just fine; just as ornery as always. (smile)

I know Donny's hasn't seemed to post much the last couple of days. Although he did comment briefly this morning on the great NYC pizza we talked about.

Donny wishing you the best, I'm sure you'll be fine.

Best of luck with your problem Donny...I hope you recover thoroughly and quickly.

Ian

All the best, Bud!

Donny mi old mucker,

You know there are one or two on SZ you would like to throttle but I take it all in my stride, had a bit of a run in with Fran yesterday, but it's all in fun, life is much too short. When someone needs to go to hospital and things go wrong people join ranks, no one wants to see anyone ill or have problems and I don't care who it is, it's not nice. So Donny Buddy, Paypal, you get better and lets have you back up and firing on all 6 cylinders, get well soon.

For better times ahead

Kind Regards

Tony Hughes

Nice to hear that Tony...and to Don, we are all thinking of you, and hope everything turns out OK

Yes Larry,

We will all end up in Donny's situation sometime as we get older and bits start to fall off or things get added on that you don't want, and it's dead without him.

Cheers Larry

Hope you are OK I saw something about high winds did you get them!!!

Tony

Best of luck Donny

Donny,
Hoping this is merely a tiny bump in the road, and that you'll be back in top form again soon.
In the meantime, I assume you've got Fran covering for you at all your gigs.
Wishing you a quick recovery.

- Scott

Donny, all the best and get well soon. At the end of the day it's all about being healthy and caring for each other.

Hope everything turns out for the best.

All the best Donny

Donny, I pray everything is alright. Let us know.

Tom

Donny

We've never met but I was thinking its got to happen someday seeing we are so close and we both know Fran (Don't hold that against me-- HA!)

Get the medical business done, listen to the Docs, and get back behind the keyboard. Best of wishes.

Bill in NJ

Stock in UPS has gone done dramatically and he's only been out for a day! Our economy can't run without DNJ!

Take care Donny!! I don't even know what's happening. Let me know eh buddy? My eyes are getting worst by the day. If it something about your eyes and it's good news, please let me know. You helped me with everything else, maybe you can help here too. Love ya man,
Boo

Don,

SZ can't run without our Pay-Pal the Nikki-Dow just took a dive now they found out.

Wishing you all the very best Donny. Get well and come back to us as soon as you can.

HI Donny,
Hope You get well soon, best wishes
Rico

Donny, I hope you feeling well and back to making music soon.

Donny:

I missed a lifetime opportunity to see you "live and in person" at Mason's Shreveport "bash" a few years ago. One of life's regrets. Your posts are always interesting and your energy and enthusiasm are downright infectious.

Here's hoping that this is something simple and can be quickly put aside. Naturally, I will talk to the "Man Upstairs" tonight on your behalf. (Sometimes, he hears me... LOL!)

Get back here soon 'cause you are missed.

All the best,

Dave Rice

Donny sent me an iMessage yesterday (on my iPad)
saying he's being treated for inverted eye lashes (lower eye lids).
and that he'll be out for 4 days.
I trust he'll back with us as good as new. - Scott

Thanks for that info Scott ... I have no idea what all that means, but I think it sounds less ominous than what the word 'biopsy' usually connotes.
Donny, Mi dispiace di sentire si è malati. Io vi augurano una pronta guarigione.
Ciao,
Jerry

All the best to you, Donny. Hope you're up and running real soon.

Best regards, 124

This is the second time I have heard of this condition. My friend had a few eye lashes taken out with a tweezers but rest requires surgery.

I hate growing old and I hate this type of stuff.
