Frankie Manning in the hospital: send in those get well cards!

Posted on April 24, 2009 by

Here's a message from the Frankie 95 Festival organizers about the health of 94-year old legendary lindy hopper Frankie Manning:

Frankie
is in the hospital and has been there since last Friday. He's being
treated for a bad reaction to a medication and will remain in the
hospital for poking, prodding and adjusting. He's very weak at the
moment, and could use your prayers to get through this tough spot.
However, all indications are that he's going to make a full recovery
from this and is looking forward to seeing all of you at his birthday
festival.

In the meantime, Frankie needs something to do while he's hanging
out in the hospital and he loves to hear from his friends from all
around the world. You can send him a personal note of encouragement
here:

Frankie Manning, PO Box 737648 , Elmhurst NY 11373

More information will be provided as it comes in. Meanwhile, prayers and cards appreciated.
