A GoFundMe went up recently to help with medical bills and other related costs. Here's the link: Ernie "The Barbarian" Gygax Needs Aide, organized by Dave Conant
The summary paints a grim picture of his situation. In addition to the things that were previously public, the page notes "He even died for several minutes this past week, but was able to be revived." And the page talks about things in terms of "going forward with the time he has left" more than it does a path to recovery.
This thread is a + thread to give updates and well wishes to Ernie. It is not a place to discuss other events in recent history, which would be more appropriate in this thread.
Good luck, Ernie. We're all hoping for the best.
