Fester Is Back After His Stint At Tampa General Hospital
Making his way back to work
Fester made his way back to the studio today after being at Tampa General Hospital last week. We are so proud of him.
He has been dealing with his myasthenia gravis. It is pronounced “my-us-THEE-nee-uh GRAY-vis.” He had a bout of it years ago on the first iteration of the MJ Morning Show. He was in the hospital for a longer period of time then. MG causes his face to droop, causes him weakness, and the rapid fatigue comes on very quickly. A lot is still unknown as to what causes it, but it is believed to be caused by a breakdown in nerve and muscle communication.
It was a beautiful moment when Fester came through the doors at Beasley and then made his way up through the elevator, which is now working for him.
The show is not the same without him. We miss his quick wit, imitations of Shaq, and dry humor, though today it was more sloshy than dry.
Good Times At The Beasley Media Group Holiday Party At The Godfrey Hotel In Tampa
Do you enjoy work holiday parties or dread them? Sometimes it may feel like a “have to” or a “check the box.” But I have to tell you, we had a BLAST at the work party last night.
I guess MJ got there early and I arrived late, so we didn’t see each other. And Fester and Froggy were at another event last night and could not make it. So most of these pics are me mingling with my other friends in the building (outside of the MJ Morning Show). It really was nice to see everyone out relaxing and having a good time. Nothing but good vibes and authenticity. I feel hashtag blessed to work with such great people. Let me introduce you to them. (Some you may know from the show.)
