Hello WW,

Lanny took a bad fall over the weekend and broke his 2nd lumbar vertebra. He's in the hospital still and dealing with a lot of pain. Please send him your prayers! The good news is that it's a compression fracture, so they did not recommend surgery. I'm not sure how long the recovery process will be, but they are sending him to rehab today.

As many of you know, Lanny takes care of the business side of WW, so things are very hard without him. We had hoped to have our revolutionary Saving the Post-Hysterectomy Woman program finished by now, so this has been a huge setback.

Please support this totally unique and one-of-a-kind revolution in women's health by ordering a product that you don't already have from the WW Store. Our wonderful shipper, Ryan, is sending out orders and keeping WW on track.

Thanks ever so much, and Remember to Remember WW Posture!

Sending best wishes for a speedy recovery for Lanny. Healing does have to take its time, and we know Lanny will be right back at it when he gets better. My thoughts are with you both.

I wrote you twice, Surviving. My email doesn't seem to be working right...and no Lanny! :-(

Thanks for all your prayers and well wishes! He was moved to rehab last night, so at last he will get real support in healing. He was literally wasting away in the hospital bed, but they were so overbooked that everything was moving at a snail’s pace. Carol and I are working diligently on the WW Conference - it’s going to be great!!

Glad to hear of the move to rehab - I imagine now they have him moving around more, which probably isn't any fun, but at least progress is coming. Keep us posted - love to the whole family. - Surviving

I hope Lanny continues to get well. It would be nice for both of you to be at the conference in good health next month.

I am very sad to hear that Lanny has had this accident and wish him a speedy recovery . If his carers are even half as understanding,innovative and positive as Lanny he will be in good hands. I really hope he is home soon and out of pain. Thanks to all the team , u r amazing.

Hi WW,

Thanks to all you beautiful women for your care and well wishes. Lanny is doing much better and I expect he'll be home within a very few days. He was given permission to walk the halls by himself, with his walker, so I think discharge is not too far away.

I've been taking all his food to him, as he told the dietician that green jello does not qualify as food. At least she had a sense of humor and retorted, "Hey, it's not even green jello, it's *diet* green jello."

He will have thousands of emails and phone calls to catch up on, not to mention a jillion other administrative details, so keep the good vibes and prayers coming!

Love from Christine
