yes there are. I was there a while ago. He's in a hospital room...looking his usual pink, healthy self, though I don't know if it's ICU. In ALL pictures he's wearing a dopey "verified paper ballot" (looks like it was printed off of someone's computer...real cheesey) pin, sitting in a recliner-style chair (it's much too skinny to be a hospital bed and you can see the arms on both sides of it.
The first picture of him shows the same monitoring/IV equipment you'd find in any room and they of course made a point of including a nurse in the picture. My husband was hooked up to the same equipment while coming off of anesthesia after a prostrate exam (anesthesia makes him really sick, so he's generally monitored a little longer than usual).
The second picture seems to be the "see how sick he really was" picture because our still pink and lush Andy's eyes are closed, he's doing his utmost to looked pained and sleeping. However, while he's hooked up to monitoring equipment, it's pretty clear he's no longer hooked up to an IV.
The third picture, his chair is (finally) fully upright...very surprising considering what he's been through...a whipple and all and still having PC in his lymph nodes. I'm guessing it must be termite next to him looking for all the world like the gay community's answer to Abbott and Costello (Termite would NOT be Costello). His room has a big picture window and some of the Baltimore(?) skyline can be seen in the background.
No dates on the pics...hmmmm.

I guess you don't have to register to comment in the Primate Room.
Got info from Scamdy.com. First someone posted that the thread got deleted, but then another posted that it got moved and is in an area where registration isn't required. The last words in the thread was "go get em".

Here is a quote from Mike Malloy's site I couldn't resist.
"Its pretty simple actually. Its already been established Andy has had surgery. Now its been established he had it at JH and for pancreatic cancer using the whipple procedure."
Yeah, it has been proven he had a whipple. After a whipple, it is common to sing showtunes, eat whatever you please, and get out of ICU the next day. Yeah, it's been proven.

The exchange between Malva and Beth.
Here's the funniest quote I've come across on the Malloy page so far:

You have neocons and occultists dissing your ass. When Right Wing Christians and Occultists are on the same page.....PERHAPS you are on the wrong one.

Frank it's time for another DUmmie alert. Dissent is beginning to show up at DU over the ASS (Andy Stephenson Situation) as this comment on bb's "www.AndyThanksYou.com having the intended effect" thread demonstrates:

I suspect there are many here who avoid these posts/threads, given all that has gone down re this issue all over the internet. I know I have hit the "x" more times than once here, in order to not become involved.
I enjoy DU. I am a liberal and a proud liberal. I like reading DU, and I enjoy it's mix of young and old.
Avoiding these posts, in view of all the information posted on other boards, which many of us have been forced to follow for information since it was prohitibed to be posted here except for the positive and supportive Andy posts from those who started this sadly mismanaged fund raiser, is mostly done in order not to be attacked, or even tombstoned for having the gall to go against the approved of tide.
I don't find this thread informative at all, and I wish this whole issue, in view of how much it has stirred controversy, would be taken to the new Burch site instead of continuing it here, where it seems to be assumed that the majority of DU people, concur. It is only assumed to be so because NO OTHER opinion is allowed.
If there is a site that addresses all of the skeptics, such as the new Burch site, then address it there instead of assuming that there is complete and total acceptance here on DU of all that has been under the microscope since this began.
Why post it here when there is a whole new site upon which to post this support?
I think this personal issue , with it's continued postings, and with it's obvious censorship of those who may just want to have some questions asked, is quite unfair.
Take it to the Burch site where all those who wish to express support can post. Here, those who do still have some reservations or doubts, are prohibited from expressing that, so these continued threads are taking advantage and leeching off that
DU censorship.
That is NOT fair.

Better read it while it's still there. I expect LOCK! BAN! DELETE! will soon begin again.
