Thank you for setting this up Lowell.

Who is hating? I hope this isn't directed to me, although in general I don't think anyone was "hating" on this thread. It still remains that Dan suffered more than a minor stroke [[Which I think was the point that was made), and still likely has a long road to complete recovery. I am definitely glad to hear he is making progress.
Almost 300 views of the Get Well Thread but only 6 people have taken 2 minutes to send get well wishes? I expected more from DYes members. Reminder: You don't have to donate to send a message. I imagine Dan Gilbert is familiar with this website so let's do a little better.
Well Dan Gilbert will likely be out of commission for some time... it was a serious stroke. Thanks P1acebo for you sharing your knowledge of these things.
Dan Gilbert leaving hospital for intensive rehab.... code words for he's going into a nursing rehab center to likely get physical/occupational therapy. This stroke was serious... and his road to recovery will likely take a while.

Now that it’s apparent that Gilbert unfortunately suffered a pretty serious stroke, isn’t it time to discuss the 800 lb gorilla in the room? https://www.detroitnews.com/story/op...le/1249356001/
Thoughts on what is ahead?
I don't think it's that big of a deal in that it wasn't Gilbert making every last decision. He built a great team if individuals that were good at what they do and could help realize his goals and I don think anyone is thinking Detroit is out of the clearing yet either.
Also Nolan Finley is a hack...
I think the article is fair and states the obvious. While Gilbert's illness should have little impact on major projects well under way, it will have tremendous impact, particularly as he moves further into the neighborhoods, if he's unable to resume full-time duties in the future.
It's unusual to have a company the size of Quicken, along with Bedrock, to be privately held. Add in another 80 plus companies and to say there's a lot on his plate is an understatement.
Why are you unearthing a month old article that was already discussed to death?
Gilbert will make a full recovery as do most stroke victims who get immediate treatment. he was at the hospital before it even happened.
Are you feeling a little guilty over some of your comments earlier in this thread that presumed you have medical knowledge [[copy/pasting from Reddit is not medical knowledge)...
Haven't you paid attention to some other 5-10 year old threads that were resurrected in the last week?
I reposted on this thread [[sheesh.. as though an 11 day posting gap is anywhere near "unearthing") because Gilbert is in much more serious condition than you initially claimed [[and seem to still presume)... and the thread is evolving into a serious discussion about what if he were no longer with us, which would be devastating for Detroit.
So stop telling others what they should or should not do.... :[[
Why would I feel guilty about anything? Everybody speculated based on the scant amount of information. You still don't really know shit and continue to speculate.
It's common knowledge that the result of stroke care depends mostly on if acted on quickly enough, don't need a medical degree to know this. We also know for a fact he got immediate attention.
A serious discussion about pure fantasy. Which is completely off topic for this thread anyway. Instead you can bug off. :cool:
Like old folks always say, some day you'll understand.
Like youngsters always until then, waah waaah waaah FU!
[[Only those without a good upbringing include the FU.)
What does this have to do with anything I said? What a lame response.
Gilbert's a multi billionaire with access to the best healthcare humanity has to offer and was receiving care before anything happened. He's cracking jokes in the hospital... he's fine folks.
But the real question is when is Patterson dying and how much better will we be without him? Eagerly anticipating his death announcement hopefully next month.
Some great news here

#Cavs general manager Koby Altman said he spoke with owner Dan Gilbert today. Saw him for the first time since stroke and said his "mind is still intact and he still sounded like Dan."

“For the first time in a couple weeks I was able to talk to him,” Altman said. “He looks great, he’s doing really well. We got to talk to him about our vision and plan, none of which has changed much. That was really, really positive and exciting, sort of gave us more of a jolt of energy and goodwill.”
^^^ Yes, an ugly, classless comment. Especially considering how no one gets out of life alive. Politics aside...
^^^ Hey, you've got it really twisted if you think I'm a Patterson fan.
I don't even live in Oakland county, nor an 'old timer', nor clutching, but what good does it do to count the days down to his painful death?
What does it do for you personally? A great deal, apparently.
