Just read online that Gregg went into Hospice today. A very sad day if this is true. Relix reported it.

We are not certain about Gregg's exact situation in the moment,but we know he's very sick & I pray for him.

Who knows what is true:

The wording is still super vague. The yahoo article says he's not "in a hospice", but you can get hospice care at home. Both of my parents did when they were in their last months. The hospice nurse came once a day to check on them and give them medication.

As always any communication with this band/Gregg is always vague, possibly intentionally vague in this instance. Of course the internet media today doesn't do any critical thinking or researching they just want to get the news out first and not accurately. That just feeds to the rumors.

Obviously this is a private matter, so they don't have to tell us anything. Hopefully this means he's not as bad off as what was being reported, but it still isn't a clear update.

Sadly, I've come to realize where there is smoke...

There were rumors of bb king in hospice care followed by a denial from his management. A few weeks later, he passed away. Praying hard for Gregory.

Yeah, the fact Gregg is at home resting does not in any way prevent him from being in hospice care. Those two things are not mutually exclusive, not by a long shot.

One thing is for sure: Whenever Gregg is truly on his deathbed, we won't know it until after he passes.

Nor do we have any right to know or should we have any expectation that we should be informed.

tbomike, I was not suggesting otherwise.

I'm just saying this is the way it is with Gregg. Get used to it.

as we all know, the road unfortunately does not go on forever...

IF.. and I mean If the reports are true I hope it comes peacefully for Gregg, he has already lived the hard & painful stuff.

The road does go on forever. When we leave the earthly plane, we go to a place called eternity, where God and others are. Duane is directing the musicians. The Bible has chapters where it is mentioned "for the Director on the string instruments" (Habbakuk), that is what Duane is doing. He became a director for the musicians in heaven. His talent was recognized and rewarded, and when it is Gregg's turn, I know darn well what band he will be in next.

But he has said that he hopes to see everyone again, and that he is just resting on Doctor's orders. Why read more into it than that?

Get well Peach!
