Many of us knew/know retired pilot, John Stewart. John and his wife were taking a cruise from Scandinavia to Russia a week ago when John began to get very sick. They took him to a hospital in Copenhagen and admitted him into ICU. He was diagnosed with some type of bacterial blood infection (staff, I think) which originated from a cut he incurred on his hand prior to the cruise. It seemed to have traveled to attack his heart valve. The doctors in Copenhagen have performed several surgeries on his heart and hand as the infection continues to travel. His son has flown over to stay with his mother in a hotel next to the hospital. John is VERY sick. He has a number of serious heart symptoms, hand symptoms, very high temp. and racing heart rate. Please keep John, Rosalita and their family in your thoughts and prayers.
