Hi folks, my name is Duncan, and I am a good friend of Shalimar. I am sorry to tell you that she collapsed earlier today. Currently she is in hospital, and we are very much afraid she may have peritonitis resulting from her perforated ulcer. It had

closed on it's own, but there are strong indications that it has erupted. She asked me to thank you for all the caring messages pertaining to Phil regaining his health. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you. As usual, she presented

beautifully. We had no idea of the seriousness of her conditon.

Duncan, I hadn't seen this message until today, and hope this finds Shalimar feeling better. Thanks for letting us know. Also hoping Phil is on the mend. Please give them both my best wishes.
 

Duncan, thank you for keeping us informed, so sorry to hear of Shalimar falling ill. Please convey to Shalimar & Phil our concern, and best of wishes and thoughts, hoping for swift and complete recovery.
 
Shalimar,
If you get this, I just want you to know I'm thinking of you and wish you well! Hoping your sweetie is doing better, and you both are on the road to recovery!
 
Hi folks. Duncan here. I regret to inform you that Shalimar is currently on life support in ICU following a drug overdose. Please keep her and Philly--who won't receive this news until later this morning when the social worker arrives at his facility, in

your thoughts and prayers. This was totally unexpected. I have known her for twenty years, easily the strongest, most compassionate person I have ever met. I doubt any of you know that she is considered one of the best therapists in B.C.

counseling those that other therapists consider hopeless. Still, she carries demons that would destroy most of us out of hand, and the stress of the last two months has been horrific. Along with her own severe ulcer issues, she still does not have any

definitive answers regarding Philly's condition, and the reason behind his low hemoglobin, (requiring frequent blood transfusions.) he is slated for further tests next week. I expect an influx of vets willing to "stand" for Shalimar to arrive at the hospital by early morning pacific time. I am beyond terrified.
 
Stay strong for her Duncan. She may not know it but she has so many friends on this forum and in real life who love her and are wishing/praying her to recover. Please keep us informed when you can.
 
Duncan, I just don't know what to say, beyond expressing my sadness at this terrible news and saying a prayer that she can recover from this tragedy. So sad. I am just stunned.
 
Dear Duncan, thank you for this sad update and know that I along with so many others here send you strength, support and hugs for Shali's and Phil's recovery. They are lucky to have such a friend as you standing by them.
 
Duncan, thank you for letting us know. It would be nice if we could send her cards while she's in the hospital, so she knows we are rooting for her and Phil. She is not in this alone. I'm going to send an email to her. If you could reply with the address of the hospital, I would send her that card. Hang in, dear one. My thoughts are with you too.
 
Thank you so much for letting us know, Duncan. Very sad news, they are the only couple who knew each other through this forum. Hope they recover soon.
