Tim is the heart and soul of Getbig. Bette's message is extremely upsetting. Please everyone, pray for both Bette and Tim to make it through this bump in the road to recovery so he can get back here and give all of Getbiggers hell better than anyone has ever done.

I don't have social media stuff or know enough about it but could someone with access please ask his sister to pass on all our best wishes when he's awake, and tell him his attendance is required here asap. Jay is right, he's the heart and soul of this place.

Taken OFF life support sounds positive, unless it's for "do not revive" reasons. Keep fighting Tim! Actually I don't doubt Tim's will to fight, hoping the planets align in his favor. :)

Wes does not have heart failure he wants to keep his weight up if possible

Yes he mentioned many months ago that a doc said it was positive if he lost some weight before surgery. Recently he has complained of losing an alarming amount weight and his appetite was very poor, couldn't eat. Obviously you'd want to keep some muscle and strength to help you fight illness. This is not about Tim per se, but a measure of probable longevity in the elderly is measuring their grip strength, which I find interesting  8)

Based on the comments, they are saying it in a positive way.

Looks like she's reposted a few times.

The news of him being off the ventilator is in the original comments section.

Thank you. When Wes posted that goodbye thread, i had a bad feeling he knew it would be a very risky surgery. My prayers are with him.

There is no news yet about Tim's recovery on his wife's or sister's Facebook pages. Like the saying goes, 'no news is good news.'
