I hate it for our program, but it is not like he won't be there altogether. He is still going to have a lot of input and I am sure Miles will be sure that SK's presence is felt.

Meanwhile, this poor guy has really had some bad breaks in life as of late and deserves the compassion of the LSU Tiger nation. We can only hope that he and his family will find a way to get things back under control and have the strength to live through those things beyond their control.

My wife's father was diagnosed with the disease about 3 or 4 years ago. It did get progressively worse but he underwent a surgical procedure to put some kind of electrodes in his brain hooked to a battery pack. By sending current through the wires his tremors almost completely stopped. It is an experimental procedure and doctors don't fully understand how it works, but my father in law is very happy he underwent the surgery. Hopefully Krags can find some kind of relief.
