News about Tsuga

Navylion · 2019-01-03T01:23:50Z

So yesterday some of you asked where Tsuga was. Tsuga and I have become friends off the board and keep in touch via e-mail as well as with MB and Cave. I had e-mailed back and forth with him earlier in the day and he told me he took a spill on the ice. He said he fell pretty hard and hit his head. I didn't feel it was appropriate to put his business out there so I didn't say anything.Tonight I got an e-mail from him but, it was actually from his wife. She said it was ok to let everyone know so below is the transcript from the e-mail. I underlined and bolded some lines that pretty much tells you the kind of guy Tsuga is!! His wife is going to keep me updated and I will relay info as I get it. Keep him in your thoughts and prayers!!Hello Navylion, I'm Tsuga's wife XXXX. We ended up taking him to the hospital AFTER the PSU game. He ended up with a separated shoulder, broken elbow, two cracked ribs a punctured lung and a concussion. Apparently he fell twice, once on Monday and again on Tuesday. They think he broke his elbow and ribs and separated his shoulder on Monday and then punctured his lung coming back home. The stubborn old fart never said a word to me about it. He slipped on the ice Tuesday carrying wood in thats when they think he got his concussion. If you want to relay the message on to his buddies I know he wont mind. He's supposed to be laid up for a few weeks but I don't think he'll rest. Our grandson and daughter are coming in on Friday to help out around here and his brother will be coming up from Georgia to stay with us and keep an eye on him. I cant believe he waited until after the game to say anything. Get this, they found a piece if shrapnel in his shoulder too. It had been there for over 50 years now. Thank you SO MUCH for thinking and asking about him. Im here with him now and he said to tell all the guys he said "howdy". He's blessed to have a man like you as his friend. If you would like, I can keep you posted on how he's doing XXXX

I almost forgot...... I read this thread off to him and he was very touched by the words and well wishes from you guys. He instructed me to thank you guys from the bottom of his heart. He also yelled over to his room mate "that is the difference between PSU fans and ND fans. We pick a guy up when he falls and you SOB's show him the door and then kick him in the a$$ on the way out."

That’s pretty funny stuff bulldawgs, the mold on tsuga is definitely broken. I bet your grandmother rolls her eyes but laughs hysterically inside.

All this information gathering is awesome - The Legend of Tsuga is growing stronger everyday!! I'm ready to start the petition to have the Big Championship Trophy renamed the Paterna/Tsuga Trophy. Talk about leaders and legends !

BD,

Thanks for catching us up. I read your grandmothers e-mail at 4:30 this morning before work and woke my wife up laughing!! Glad he is feeling better and that he is surrounded by you all! You are going to need everyone of you to keep him on his butt while recovering!! Tell him to take it easy and get well soon! Keep the updates coming!!
