To friends of Tom Farland NØJMY and customers of Hayseed Hamfest -

I received a note from Tom's family this evening with some unfortunate
news.  Tom has been hospitalized and is suffering from some serious
medical problems, the full extent of which are presently unknown.  I had
an email from him Sunday saying he'd been in the local hospital for
tests, and still had a lot of pain.   Evidently things got a lot worse,
as he was taken to the Emergency Room later that night and transferred
to an ICU in Cedar Rapids yesterday, where he's mostly sedated due to
pain.  They think it may be pancreatitis, but the diagnosis is uncertain
at this time.

Tom's wife asked me to pass this information along, for the benefit of
anyone who may be waiting on a reply to a Hayseed Hamfest question or
order.  Please be patient until things get sorted out, and pass this
information along to anyone who may be asking.

In the meantime, thoughts and prayers for Tom and his family would of
course be appreciated.   I'll provide any further information as I
receive it.

73, Bob W9RAN
