I thought Mudcatters would like to know and wish him better.
Information via his Facebook friends give the following details:

"...our- dear friend Severn Savage has once again landed in the hospital. Friday night he went to the ER complaining of chest pains and general malaise only to discover he had an inexplicable build-up of fluid around his heart... They then gave him a free helicopter ride to Baltimore. I visited him tonight and found him weak but in good spirits, due in no small part to the return of basketball to television. He'd like visitors (rm. 626 in the Weinberg Section of the UMBC Hospital, the one near Camden Yards) and can be reached at 443-462-4770 in his room. Cell phones don't seem to work in the building. Please call or visit to cheer him up- Christmas in the Hospital has gotta suck. Am going back tomorrow and will report any news here, but please give him a buzz or stop by." Please y'all, give Severn a call or a visit if you're able."

Love and gentle hugs

That sucks. He was having such fun in the Tavern. Anyone have an address for the hospital? Hopefully, he won't be there long enough for cards to arrive. I have his home address around here somewhere.
Be well, Sev.

Sev, the last week of 2011 is absolutely the last drama permissible for you. You have pre-bought a good five years of happiness, headiness and health. And we need you home and feelin' good before the dawn of 2012.

I think it was all of that roast auroch that got to him in the Mudcat Tavern. Sev, get over this soon and when you return home we'll tie a rope to that tree and let you swing from the rafters.

I spoke with Severn about a half hour ago. His humour ain't improved; he told me two bad puns in fifteen seconds. It's a sickness he's lived with for years--the bad puns that is.

He was sounding good but not great. However, he's out of the ICU and the docs will run more tests to determine the cause. The doctors do not think the fluid is blood, so that's a positive.

Oh, dear.

Enjoy the basketball. But really, heal up quickly. I imagine it will be a lot more fun watching from your own sofa at home.

Thinking good thoughts of you.

Tell him this one:
This drunk sidled up to a pretty woman in the bar and says, "Haven't we met before"? She was totally put off so she said, "Could be, I'm the receptionist at the VD clinic."

"an inexplicable build-up of fluid around his heart"

Sounds serious, unless Severn has been hitting the holiday eggnog too hard.

Thanks to you from me. Humour, at a time like this, is all we have besides hope that a great friend will get well. You lightened my load a tad and I am sure Sev will appreciate the humour even more when he reads it.

Thanks for posting this info, rumanci. I caught a hint in a passing FaceBook "notification" of Severn possibly being in hospital but I wasn't able to track it down for more details.

Severn, I agree that this time you've gone to way too great lengths to get attention from nurses and find a broader audience for your outrageous puns and get out of cooking Christmas dinner.

So just stop it, y'hear?    Get yourself well immediately and get back home and start singing again.

I will try to call when I'm sure what number to use.

Love ya,
Genie
