Another health issue

A little while ago I wrote a post on Bob Barker's latest health scare. There's been a recurrence.

This time there are pictures of Mr. Barker being transported to Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles for what is called a "non-life-threatening" back issue. His back was the problem in the earlier incident, so at least the stories seem consistent. But as I said in the earlier post, it's obviously difficult to know the truth in these situations.

The Price is Right's iconic host was said to be "awake and alert" and "resting and going through evaluations," according to his manager. At age 94 the evaluations will be very thorough. They used an ambulance to transport Mr. Barker to the hospital because a private car might have caused unnecessary pain to him.

And that's about all the available information right now. We'll see what happens.

UPDATE: Mr. Barker has returned home. His business manager says: "He's home, he's resting, he's comfortable. He wants to thank all his fans and those (who have) been reaching out. He wants to let them know he's resting and on the road to recovery."
