Yes, from another board. He used to live in Wetumpka and has been in very bad health for a long time. Does not sound good at all.
From his daughter:
"My AUBURN FAMILY:: My father needs your help more than ever, he is so sick in I.C.U. He is not doing well and his lungs are not producing oxygen. His pacemaker is not doing very well. His brain is in overdrive and cannot control much at all, after years of injuries, abuse, and hard work. His pain management is beyond repair. Our family and my father need your prayers more than ever!! If you can send a kind word to him, please send him a kind words, love, and support! The sooner you send the support the sooner he will get it, which he really needs! please send it to:
2010 Brookwood Medical Center Drive
Birmingham, AL 35209
Terry Beasley room 388
God Bless you all and thank you all for anything you can do, as it would mean more than the world to him. Thank you, thank you, and I send love out to you all during this trying time for our family."

The number of concussions he had is incredible.
Thoughts and prayers!

This is how they carried you off the field after you got a concussion in the old days. :(
I met Terry a little over 10 years ago. Nice guy. Was struggling greatly even then.

That picture is eerie.
He played way before my time. Was he just pre-disposed to so many concussions or did he just get the hell knocked out of him all the time?

He was utterly fearless catching balls across the middle. And back then safeties pretty much went for your head when you came into their zone.

yep, It was not uncommon to get knocked senseless several times a game. If you could see straight and function, you went back in.
