#295730 - 04/13/20 05:07 PM Update on Joe Pointer
Jeanette_Isabelle Carpal Tunnel Registered: 11/13/06 Posts: 2999 Loc: Hot Springs Village, AR	As I mentioned, Joe Pointer, my friend's uncle, was in ICU and was not expected to live. He's alive and now back home.

Jeanette_Isabelle Carpal Tunnel Registered: 11/13/06 Posts: 2999 Loc: Hot Springs Village, AR	During the early days of the quarantine, Joe needed a pacemaker. Within a few days of the surgery, he came down with pneumonia. He went into ICU, and the hospital did not expect him to live. As for his age, he is in his seventies.
