I wish my old comrade and his family all the best in the circumstances ...

There is deep sadness to hear about my  Frenno Gilly , i also wish my Frenno and his family all the best in the circumstances.

Wow! Gilly has certainly won my respect here on GNI.

A few months back, I noticed he has been using a quote from the Holy Quran on all of his posts. I will definitely make dua for this brother.

Sorry to hear that...he struck me as a guy with a wealth of knowledge and information about Guyana

Some humans are worthy people, wish we they did not have to part with ths world too soon. Hope is the longing for better days and better prospects. Let him have more days.

What?? This is so disheartening as Gilly and I earned each other’s respects on GNI.  He was a wealth of knowledge. His experience is unmatched. I truly wish him all the best and even though he is in such poor health. I pray for a miracle to happen. Please keep us posted on his condition. 

I am so sorry to hear about Sir Gil and wish him all the best , also his family too. I uses to call  him that on that 'tickle your brains' thread. All my prayers for him to get better.

You, Django and Riya posted the answers very quickly.  Anyway, he was a journalist in Guyana, very well-read and knows almost everything about Guyana.

Sorry to hear this. I was thinking all of the time that the Gilbakka was in Guyana helping the Rank prepare for the election.

Unfortunate news about Gilbakka.

Saying extra prayers for your recovery Cde Gilly..

Thank you for relaying this information. May god grant him a speedy and full recovery.

This is very sad. I hope he recovers and return to GNI. We've lost Mara, Jalil, and another one whose name I can't remember at this time.  

Stroke, heart attacks, and complications from diabetes are taking a toll on lives of Guyanese, especially Indo-Guyanese.  We need to educate ourselves more about the benefits of exercise and diet in combating these health problems.  

Billy, so true. My Dr did a research on the RH Community at my Health Center and gave our warnings about the diet and lack of exercise he heard about.

Tennis rolls, salara, regular Bread, Roti, sugar cake and other stuff. When he interviewed the older people many told him they eat Rice and Roti, he has to ask me what is roti. He said it is just another form of bread.

I have started to eat brown Biriani Rice and whole wheat roti.

Simple starch breaks down rapidly to sugar in the small intestines. Fiber rich foods takes a long time to break down and absorbed into the blood. The human body cannot digest fiber. To prevent a blood sugar spike one has to eat a smaller portion of complex carb. Eliminate regular sodas (Liquid candies) and increase your consumption of cruciferous vegetables. 

The gilster knew this day was fast approaching, but he made sure to make things right before this moment arrived.

And how are you keeping?

Getting better slowly. Peeping in from time to time and making a contribution to GNI has helped me passing the time. Lost a lot of muscles though. Thank you for asking.

It is with sadness I write to wish him a speedy recovery. One of the persons on GNI for whom I have a lot of respect. 

Now I am reading this. Very sad to hear this. I wish him the very best and hopes he makes a full recovery.

Some of his posts

My old villager, maybe ,he is the only one on GNI who knows me and my family.

 I would like to wish him a speedy recovery and my prayers are with the family.

 From the little he told me, he lives in East Scarborough, Ontario, he had promised to meet and share an old single malt scotch with me, well, Big Fish just keep on swimming and keep on breathing , we are all here for you. One for all, All for ONE.

I wish the Gillman a healthy bounce back. I have to pass this info to my cous, they were buddies from the past.

Best Wishes to Gilly for a speedy recovery.

Prashad is hoping for a miraculous recovery for the Gillbaka so that he can make his contribution to the Rankster's Party in the next election.

The game isn't over till the fat lady sings. Gilly just need a mental rest. I have seen people recover from a stroke.

Best wishes to Gilly for a speedy recovery.  Keep the faith!

Stay well and be strong.

Dondadda you have to stick around until BS Rai hits his 100 no out so that you can make the announcement to the board.

So sorry to hear about the illness of an esteemed GNI poster.  You are strong. You are special. You are brave. You are courageous. You are a fighter.  Hang in there to see the PPP in victory lane once again. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
