The news on 76-year-old John A. Keel’s recovery from his heart attack is good.
Just in from Doug Skinner…
I just spoke with Keel. He had the operation yesterday, but is doing fine, and is due to be released tomorrow. I’ll be meeting him at the hospital, and helping him get back home and stock up on groceries.
The prognosis is good!
Many thanks to confirmations and news via John Frick, Mark Pilkington, and George Hansen.

Great news! Glad to hear he’s recovering.
Awesome news. I’m so thankful. Lets hope for a loooooong and happy life!
I’m happy to hear that he’s recovering quickly. Keel has always been someone I held in the highest respects, and I’d hate for him to go before I get a chance to shake his hand.

I’ve read many of Mr. Keel’s books, and consider him one of the most interesting and unusual writers around. Thanks for the update, Mr. Coleman, and the good news. Keep us posted!
