RiotAct Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I was wondering… what IS the last official update that we got from the team or PSE? That she’s in the hospital but recovering well? I honestly can’t remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely Realist, but that’s not how this started. People wanted an update and the family has made it clear, it’s a private matter. I work in the business side of medicine and I respect HIPPA. I try not to know people’s medical information. If they feel it’s a private matter, then I’ll respect their interests. It doesn’t mean I haven’t said a prayer for Kim among my family and friends. More than a few our fathers, but I don’t need to know anything about her medical condition other than she is ok. I have a close family member who works for the Sabres for twenty years, but I’ve never asked her about Kim, because it would put her in a compromising position. I’m sure she knows, but not going to ask her about it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure they have a nurse on staff at the home, and is getting too flight care. So if anyone wants to say a prayer, great. No reason to ask though.

Seems like a weird thing to speculate about. There is some relevance as to why Bills fans should care, even if only from a football perspective. Terry is in his 70s. It’s not crazy to say Kim, who’s much younger, could be the sole owner some day. If Kim isn’t in the ownership picture, it changes how long we may have stable, very good ownership. A team is only as good as it’s owner. Obviously, 99.99% of us care about Kim’s health primary because we are empathetic and she seems like a really good person.

TheFunPolice Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Given that she was always around the team and at games and hasn't been seen this season I think that says a lot. I also don't think it's crazy to wonder about the long-term absence of the president of both major professional Buffalo sports teams. It's a natural question. Delicate situation for sure, and I'm sure PSE or the family will update everyone eventually, hopefully it will be Kim herself who does that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems like the decent way to handle it. Our natural curiosity does not supersede her right to privacy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPA laws only apply to covered entities and businesses. It doesn't prevent private citizens from discussing things unless they are employees of those places. For example, a person walking down the street that saw someone having a stroke is not subject to HIPPA laws in terms of disclosing information as they do not work for a covered entity or business.

If she had a stroke (most likely what happened) we wouldn't really expect to see or hear anything for months. It really is at 6 months when recovery really slows down. They are smart to keep saying she is progressing well. It has only been a few months. She likely is improving very slowly. The reality though is she won't be President of the Bills again.

I've also seen this rumor circulating online and very unfortunate if true for the exact reasons you outlined. The only silver lining you can find in this situation is the Bills organization rallying around this and using it as more motivation to bring a championship home to Buffalo this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But one can hope. Many, many stroke victims recover fully with no side effects, and many have limited residual side effects and can resume their lives. My wife for one was back to work in 6 months working in the medical field. Yes, many can have life changing, debilitating side effects from a stroke and never recover fully.

BuffBillsForLife Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I'm not a doctor (although I have seen people play them on TV), but to me a stroke has always been the only reasonable explanation considering the apparent suddenness of her illness and lack of updates afterwards. Here's hoping she makes a full recovery. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone's side effects are different. My dad was very fortunate that he didnt really have any. His memory isn't great anymore, but his side effects are nothing like what happened with dick Clark and many other who have a stroke.

Wacka Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I a had stroke back in 2014. Luckily (if I can use that word) I had it while they were scanning my brain in the hospital. Had to use a walker for several months and a cane for several more. Didn't drive for a year. Had a real sharp memory before. Now I have to take a list food shopping for even several items as I forget one or two if I do. Ended up with a very, very, very slight weakness on my left side and dizziness if I look up for a while (like looking up at the trees in the woods. Had trouble remembering names but that went away.
