Bill’s Facebook page was updated this morning with the following message. “William is still in the ICU and his family thanks everyone for their thoughts and prayers.” Bill’s wife, Daryl updated her own Facebook page last night that she is “sad to report that Bill is not getting better,” which is truly disheartening news.

Let’s all continue to send our best wishes and prayers for Bill’s recovery. For the last three nights out at SF Beer Week events, we’ve been conducting toasts at 7:00 p.m. I’d like to suggest that we continue that practice each night until Bill can join us in toasting his own health.

Also, as of this morning, there are 133 comments wishing Bill a speedy recovery on his Bottom’s Up blog. If you haven’t already done so, head over there and let him know he’s in your thoughts and prayers. It may not be much, but it’s all we can really do for now.

 
UPDATE 2.13 1:00 PM: Daryl Brand posted that there is “no change in Bill’s condition.” Damn.
