Louis has had a tough time health-wise, it's not fair he's having to battle again. Wishing him all the strength he needs to pull through and hoping for good news soon.

An update, copied here from Facebook.
Gloria Bentley Clark: at 17:00 Monday 18 Oct 2020 I know everyone who loves and cares about Lou knows about his condition. They brought him down from his sedation this morning. He’s opened his eyes but has a blank stare and no recognition. But, I asked him to squeeze my hand and he did. I’m clinging to the hope that he’s on his way back. Thank you so much to everyone sending well wishes and good vibes.

something weird about that facebook update: it says Monday, October 18th - but Monday was October 19th...just a typo I guess
get well, Lou my prayers are with you

The importance of Lou in ELO folklore cannot be underestimated, Eldorado was for me the break through album that turned the band into worldwide superstars and Lou's contribution with the string arrangement on the album helped underline that.

This is an update posted on Facebook:
Update on my Dad's condition: Firstly we'd like to say thank you for all your support here on Facebook. He is much loved and it shows with the huge response in messages, so thanks. Since being taken ill last Thursday his condition remained critical but stable and even showed signs of improvement. But yesterday there was another cardiac event and the cardiologist said that his heart rate dropped dangerously low and required compressions to resuscitate it back to normal. He remains unconscious and on life support but comfortable. In the meantime, because of covid travel restrictions we're having trouble finding a way to get Jemma and me to the US. I posted a letter to the US Embassy yesterday so I'm hoping for a response. I have moments when it feels like my heart is choking me, and I know it's the same for Gloria, Rachel, Jemma and all the relatives and close friends. So please keep up the positive thoughts, prayers, good vibes, throw the kitchen sink, whatever!,...for the ol' man!

I’ve not seen any further updates, hopefully no news is good news. Maybe just wishful thinking, but no updates might also mean that Lou Jr got the ok to fly to America to see his father.
