Hi All,
WELDONS son called me today, told me that he was in the hospital.
Said that he was not doing to well. I called him right away.
He told me that he was alright, he was in good spirits.
They will be running him through a lot of test tomorrow.
As I hear what is going on I will keep everyone updated.

Weldon usually mentions things like this to me if something is wrong so I am praying that its not too serious. I made a couple calls to Philly to see what I can find out from some friends. My Prayers are with you Weldon.

**positivesoul** · 09-07-2010, 11:17 AM

OK Weldon, take a quick breather, then jump back into the ring! Gonna need your input when we're ready to roll out the Philly Songwriters Honors that I recently spoke to you about. [[No I didn't forget you, lol!)

In all seriousness, get well soon. Prayers n Best Wishes for you and your great family. BTW, my daughter and your grandaughter still get together regularly! Get well.

**positivesoul** · 09-07-2010, 11:23 AM

I just re-read the original post and saw that it wasn't Weldon himself who made the call, so the concern is heightened. Will call his family for more info. Hoping for good news.

**positivesoul** · 09-07-2010, 11:24 AM

Tom... THANK YOU for notifying us.

**positivesoul** · 09-07-2010, 11:26 AM

Sorry, THANK YOU CEASAR!

**nosey** · 09-07-2010, 11:31 AM

I too was missing Weldon on the forum and called him on Friday apparently before he went to the hospital. He told me he was suffering from severe Acid Reflux and had lost @ 40lbs due to his inability to eat. He asked me to mention that he would be giving commentary on the Tammi Terrell Unsung episode thats upcoming.

Here's wishing Weldon a speedy recovery.

**positivesoul** · 09-07-2010, 01:21 PM

I just heard through a family member that Weldon is indeed not doing well. The thoughts & prayers continue.

**chidrummer** · 09-07-2010, 01:44 PM

Sending one upstairs for you, Mr. McD.

Get back here as soon as you can.

**jillfoster** · 09-07-2010, 04:36 PM

Hoping that his condition will improve. Let's just keep good thoughts.

**satipe** · 09-07-2010, 05:33 PM

Weldon

I'm sorry to hear this news. I had heard that you were a bit under the weather, but nothing along the lines of this.

I wish for you a quick & speedy recovery, get well soon. I'm not home now, but when I get home & get a chance, I'd like to post a pic or two that might make you smile a bit. Thanks for all of your tips & encouragement over the years, you're definitely in my prayers.

God Speed!

Weldon:

I only just burst through to the forum again after hanging around in the yard with no one to speak up for me. I know you wil fix those doctors and nurses good, but make sure they realise they can't monopolise you. We need you here. And also, I want to do your photo book.

**ceasar** · 09-09-2010, 07:24 PM

**LUDIE** · 09-14-2010, 01:56 PM

Ceasar; I had to jump back on here when I heard My dear friend was hopsitalized. Weldon has been such a good friend and mentor for the past several years . The strangest thing is that I never bonded with any of his family and I need to know what Hospital he is in. Let Weldon Know I offer up prayer for him daily!.............Ludie Montgomery TT Sister

...good news TL ...just said another prayer for the big man

**jobeterob** · 09-16-2010, 02:10 PM

Wonderful news! We don't often get great news like this about the guys that were at Motown in the day! The last good news was Ralph got a new hip.

Well done Weldon and hope to see you back shortly.

**juicefree20** · 09-20-2010, 12:13 PM

Yesterday, I received a call from L.C. who visited with Weldon. Weldon is aware that all of you have been asking about him & wishing him well. He asked L.C. to send word that he is feeling much better, his procedure went well & that he is scheduled to go home soon. He said that as soon as he is able to, he'll respond & thank everyone for their well-wishes, which he appreciates a great deal.
