and other times, life sucks

My dad just called.

My brother (John, the older of my brothers) has been taken to the hospital, not feeling well, slurring his words, and the like. The hospital is admitting him to the ICU for observation overnight; his blood sugar was 400+

Not that this surprises me; John is about 6 foot tall, but weighs probably 350+ pounds.

Good thoughts/energy/prayers for him would be good.  And for my dad, who is home alone this week while my mom is at a conference in Kansas City, and is totally freaked out.

Dunno what to do from here, but this is not good.

ETA: also, Sunday is John's birthday. He'll be 28.
