We got back to our usual Far Place late last night and so were able to visit Osman at the National University Hospital this afternoon. He's not doing too well. It looks like he caught some respiratory infection whilst in Makkah since he's coughing intermittently, and since he's weak already with the spreading of his cancer it's going to be difficult fighting off the virus.
Fortunately he was not short of visitors and was getting lots of practical attention, like having his back, neck & legs massaged which seemed to help him cope, at least for a while. And just coping in that extremity was deeply heroic.
