From my understanding nothing has changed on this case. When new information is available I'm sure it will be posted quickly as a lot of people miss him and want to know how he is. We are all hoping for the best results and wish him a speedy, but complete, recovery.
At the risk of sounding like an old prune or an inconsiderate jerk, I think the last thing any one of us wants is for him to get out of the important hospital care he needs again only to put added pressure on his health and have to go back, or worse. Like I said the last time, it was far too early for him to come back and it showed. He was far too overstressed, that it was only a matter of time before something happened.
There are many insignificant events that cause stress in the gaming world that really don't matter in life. I'll mention the same thing I said at a navy junior officers meeting last week. As a leader you get stuck with a lot of bull-crap; guilds or division loyalties, alliances and the politics involved, member discipline and sorting out juvenile complaints from valid ones. You perform these tasks because you care and are passionate about the unit left in your care, but you need to be mentally ready to bare the burden of your choices and the crap that follows it. I'm not saying leading is what caused his health problems and his current predicament, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was one factor that contributed to the larger problem. I knew and warned him the first time that it was too soon to come back and he needed to take it easy, but in the end the decision was his. He decided to go back to work, to game again, all of that was a mistake in my view.
Personally how long it takes doesn't matter, how fully he recovers is the only thing I care about. Not 10%, not 30%, but as close to 100% as possible. My only advise to him right now is “Don't sacrifice your health for anything, just get better.”
