Joseph Montgomery

[Nittro]

Just an update for concerned friends and acquaintances of Joe.
Joe took a rather bad fall after miscalculating the steps at the ramp today. While somewhat resistant initially, it was necessary to call for an ambulance and have Joe taken in for medical treatment. He has a hairline fracture which they plan to stabilize with a small pin. In addition, Joe will have a pacemaker put in. A necessity that he has been considering for some time now.
When I visited Joe this evening he was in good spirits and talked about a planned trip back to the Maritimes to "angle" for Atlantic Salmon.
Joe is in room #503 at the St. Catharines General.

We wish him well and a speedy recovery.

Any recent news on this?

Joe was his usual jovial self when I visited him this evening. I guess Joe won't be playing Doctor again some time soon. His left arm took quite a blow and as such mobility remains restricted. Not only did Joe damage his hip, but fractured his leg in three places.
After the initial treatment, Joe was transferred to the Greater Niagara General in Niagara Falls, room 1228. He is undergoing a long term physio program to get back on his feet.
His wife Carol is only three blocks away now, making visiting more convenient
Joe says "Hello" to everyone and can't wait to get back.
