What about Dr. Blake?

Has anyone heard what's going on with Dr. Blake? This is driving me crazy. I guess I'm just nosey.....

Honey, you are not the only nosey one here!!! I have been trying like crazy to find out what's up, but I still don't know anything for sure. I have heard lots of rumors - some saying the problem pertains to his family, some saying it has to do with surgeries, and some saying it has to do with work problems unrelated to the surgeries....So beats me! BUT I have also heard that he will be back soon. Also have heard he is probably gone for good...Well, you get the idea...Those that know aren't talking and those that DON't KNOW surely ARE talking... So RUMORS, RUMORS, RUMORS!!!! I have done some checking into some of his background and can tell you for certain that he has received SEVERAL honors pertaining to his skills and abilities. Also know that he is considered one of the best - if not THE best - trauma surgeon in the state and/or the southern region. I, personally, am leaning towards the rumor that this is a family emergency, but I don't know for sure.. smoochers, Arlies
