My Dad graduated IU Dental in 1950 & has been supporting IU athletics for over 80 years.

We had to rush him to the emergency room Wednesday night - bad common cold..

Yesterday was not looking good. He was pretty non-responsive yesterday until the end of visiting hours.

He started talking a little & asked if he could get the IU game on that TV?

He has bounced back some today.

I have never anticipated a kickoff this much before. Go IU!!

God bless your dad and your family as I hope his recovery goes well. IU's victory over OSU should give him a boost to make it through this season.

My dad was at the IUSD the same time as your’s, having graduated in ‘47 for his DDS and MS in ortho. 1950. Both my folks were huge IU fans and would have enjoyed this season, as has your dad. How’s he feeling this morning?
