— Code Red I know a lot of people are concerned about CaliGrump, so I wanted to re-post this message from his brother that was posted in the comments section:
All,
I don't know how to reach Ace or any of the other bloggers/commenters so I'll announce it here. My brother is GrumpyCali and I just heard from my niece that he just walked into the Kaiser Hospital in San Francisco.
I talked to her and she hopes this will be a major turning point in his life. He has a lot of people who love him and there's no shame in struggling because we all have, or will struggle eventually. I wanted to thank all the beautiful people on this site for the outpouring of love for a stranger.
When he gets better, I'm sure he will thank all of you for it. You recognized what was happening early on and may have saved his life from the prayers and love. I've never commented before and I provided my email address in the box provided so that I can be reached there by any of the moderators for confirmation that I am his brother. Thanks for everything, you all did a wonderful job and my family and I appreciate it.
EM

Arhooley is the real hero here. If I followed the thread this afternoon right, he tracked down CaliGrumps home phone and called and talked to CaliGrump's wife.
Big, big kudos to Arhooley who intervened and maybe saved....
I once lost someone very close to me because of depression and suicide
Just well done.

Hooray for the CaliGrumpdate.
"He has a lot of people who love him and there's no shame in struggling because we all have, or will struggle eventually."
You speak the truth. Good luck.

A weight of my heart, this evening.
you make me proud, Moron Nation. Especially arhooley, and the rest of you who tried to help track CG down. I don't know for certain that you prevented a tragedy, but my heart says you did.

26 Gang, I heard from his wife, and she did say he's not hurt but he's going to need help. I told her a lot of people are very relieved and looking forward to seeing him back.
Posted by: arhooley at February 21, 2011 11:20 PM (mV+sa)
Like we all keep saying, it will probably take a little time for him to want to talk, but if we can send him something let us know.
And if he ever feels up to it we can have a Moron Meetup in the area. I'm only a few hours away and mostly good to travel (as long as they don't increase the Carvedilol again). I'm up for it, especially if it's to bring goodies and cheer to CG.
And thanks again for taking it on yourself, arhooley, I don;t know if it helped CG but it sure as Hell helped all of us.

Kaiser Permanente. It's a large HMO here in California that's unique because it owns all of its own hospitals and clinics. People either love them or hate them -- love them because everything is integrated and seamless for your records, i.e. your pharmacist instantly knows what your physician prescribes you, your specialist automatically gets their records -- or hate them because they literally will not pay for anything that is not delivered from a Kaiser-owned facility.
Usually they're not a bad deal, but my partner is in the "hate them" category, so we're with BCBS.

Someone I loved and admired very much lost his life to depression. It is a horrible illness because it LIES to you.
I am relieved and impressed that the moron nation has refrained from passing any judgments (at least not that I have read). Too often people view emotional or mental crises as character flaws. Nothing could be further from the truth. In face, having the balls to confront the darkness head-on shows some serious internal fortitude.

Also, the original thread was deleted because major personal information came pouring forth that was over- the- line personal, and rather surprising that so much info could be obtained in such a short period of time.
For the protection of Caligrump,Warden, Ben and other gatekeepers did all they could as fast as possible to protect Cali from unwanted troll attention. It was handled as rapidly and discreetly as possible. And the actions taken were laudable and appropriate under the circumstances. Which is easy to say in retrospect. Arhooley took a major risk. But it was a five alarm fire at the time. He done good. He done right.
I'd pick him for my dodgeball team any day.

I commented on the other thread, but will say it again here. I'm so thankful and glad that he's safe and with his family, and that ours is a group that would look after each other.
Be well CaliGrump and goodnight all. Sleep well.
Posted by: Annabelle at February 21, 2011 09:26 PM (4kxCX)
A lot of folks got it in their head to see what was wrong with cali grump, but arhooley got off her ass an made the call to family. By then he was gone, but it probably led to a bunch of frantic calls to CG from his family, letting him know he's loved.
Posting a "check out" message is a cry for help. I'm glad it wasn't just CG quitting posting. Even more glad that he got help, and didn't hurt himself or others (since according to the family, he might have had a gun with him)
The entire moron horde deserves a pat on the back, and arhooley a medal.

Wow. I had no idea any of this was going on. I just read this thread and the earlier thread that was linked. My screen is very blurry. I am so humbled by all of you who reached out to Cali Grump. You all are such good people. I am so glad that the hand of God was upon you all and Cali Grump.
God bless all of you wonderful, caring morons and moronettes. God bless Cali Grump, and may He uphold you in the palm of His hand. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers, Cali. I am so glad that you are getting help.

What I don't understand is why he went all the way into the Kaiser facility in SF. There are Kaiser hospitals in Walnut Creek, Livermore, Hayward and Pleasanton.
The SF facility is by far the most distant in the East Bay. And some very fine hospitals in both Pleasanton and San Ramon (but if he is a Kaiser subscriber he would have to go to a Kaiser facility).
Anyway, the good news is he got the help he needed. I wish him well and will offer up a few prayers to Our Blessed Lady to help him along.

And, even though it's the first time I've ever seen anything like this happen here, this is the reason why I love it so much. There are just some things you know about certain types of people, even though they go to extraordinary lengths to avoid letting on about it.
Kudos to the morons -- particularly to arhooley, but to no lesser degree to the rest of you who seized the initiative and then took care to do what you could to protect the man's privacy as he re-ups his life lease.
No telling how many lives you all touched today.

Wow, thanks for all the kudos. In reality, I think the service I provided was really to you guys, to let you know what was up, and to cali grump's family to let them know he has friends and to provide a little extra info. I don't know if I saved a life -- don't think I really did since apparently CG had second thoughts -- but I'm glad for what I could do. I think when CG and his family look at ALL the posts here, they'll see that his life is worth saving.

I'm with you on the prayers to Our Lady. Mine are directed to Her more often than not.
As far as the trip to SF, this is only speculating, but there are some awesomely famous places there to end things. Who knows?

Y'all did good. I discovered what was going on shortly into the ordeal yesterday while at work and couldn't stop refreshing the thread. F5 F5 F5.. you know how it goes..
The term Moron Nation really has more meaning when you see the outpouring of concern and prayers literally from coast to coast.
Carry on.

Morons and Moronettes, that work with CG was fast, smooth, and dead accurate. Swan nailing that throw on the beach for all the marbles wasn't any better. To paraphrase Cyrus' successor, "You (Morons and Moronettes) are good. Real good." And CG's damned lucky there was someone there to catch him when he fell.

Great job Arhooley! Great job morons for taking actions so quicklly. Thank you Cali for knowing you needed help and trusting The Morons to help you (for posting your name). Thanks for keeping us updated. Thank you too to Cali's brother that took the time to inform us his brother was okay.
Prayer....it is an Awesome Thing!

Arhooley, bless your little old pea-picking heart. And Tami and anyone else who had anything to do with this emotional rescue. I wondered about CG all day yesterday, as did BackwardsGirl, and hoped that all would be well. Thank God he's alright.
And to CaliGrump, the Moron Nation awaits your return.

I'm very happy he's where he needs to be.

They still have a road ahead of them...and that is a GOOD thing. Best wishes to them.

Missed whatever happened...but then, I get the feeling I know the parts that count.
Prayers and salutes to all. Better angels, indeed.

I read every day and don't often post, but I have nothing but good wishes for Caligrump and am proud at what the people here did for him. Life can get pretty damned hard at times, and we all need to be reminded that we're not alone in this.

I've said more than once the Morons are a class group, but just had circumstantial evidence. This is for real.
I'm proud to call myself a Moronette.

arhooley..I know you are downplaying your efforts, but you did step up...and for that we are all grateful and impressed. I'm sure it was awkward for you not knowing the real meaning of CG's message...and then having to delicately put it to his family..
Tami....kudos to you for seeing the red flag that some of us others would have just dismissed as an offhand comment
as far as the news about him ...OUTSTANDING!!!!
CG, in the outside chance that you're reading the blog, do know that we are all with you. You have friends here. I am so glad you did reach out. Stay strong. You will get through this.
We look forward to your return to moronistan

Oh, and our reputation as a wretched hive of scum and villainy is just shot all to hell. We're all going to have to pitch in do what it takes to work our way up down in the rankings again.

If I gave a rip, I'd whip you all into shape toot sweet. Considering the riff raff who call this place "home," I'm not going to bother expending the energy. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a mongoose to see to.

Except for <<you>>.
Ace, thank you so much for making this possible.
I know being a blogger looks super lame on a C.V. but still...
Kinda cool. No?

I'm not CaliGrump's brother. CaliGrump's brother went by the name EM. I just re-posted his comments so everyone knew CaliGrump was okay.

Way late to this thread, but:
It's great to hear CaliGrump is getting some help, all the best to him, and hope to see him back here soon.
arhooley - just really, really well done.
I'm very proud to be a Moron.
