Intensive care? That's awful. I pray it's nothing serious and that he fully recovers. Thank you for letting us know and please keep us updated.

Thanks everyone, I know he'll be back soon, and back in the swamps chasing ghost orchids.
They apparently found something in his kidney that caused a blood clot in his lungs. What's in his kidney is still uncertain and they are running tests to see if they have to perform surgery.
I didn't go see him tonight cause I wanted his family to be with him. I will see him tomorrow morning around 11am and let you know what's up.

You're a good friend Swamper, I know you will give him kind words from all of us.

The hospital confinement has got to be excrutiating for Mike because he's so fond of the great outdoors. He's probably suffering from "Swamp Withdrawal" symptoms in addition to the discomfort of his other ailments and treatments. Poor guy. My prayers are with him.
