navychief Posted May 11, 2005 Posted May 11, 2005 Please say a prayer today for my shipmate, AT1 Fran McHale. He will undergo an operation today at a military hospital in Hawaii to remove a brain tumor from behind his right ear. Prognosis is he will lose hearing in that ear, but hopefully that is the worst of it. I posted about Fran McHale in a previous message sometime back. Fran made my last 1 1/2 years in the Navy a breeze. He was my LPO for the Line Division, and the most capable, natural born leader I had ever had the good fortune to work with. I pray his operation is successful in removing the tumor, and that his recovery is speedy. I am planning on trying to get a military hop to go see him, sometime later this month. Go Navy..... always.

firehawkordy Posted May 12, 2005 Posted May 12, 2005 Will do Chief, I hope he does better after his surgery. Quote
navychief Posted May 12, 2005 Author Posted May 12, 2005 No word yet on the outcome of Fran's surgery. I have tried calling his wife to check on things, but can only get voicemail. Fran has a LOT of friends, and I am sure that cell phone is ringing constantly. When I have some news, I'll post. Thanks for your reply posts, shipmates. NC Quote
