TYPES people may not have heard that Alan Jeffrey is seriously ill. His sister 
posted the following last week on Mastodon:

"You'll know from his posts that Alan has been in and out of hospital due to 
brain cancer and its side effects. He went downhill again two weeks ago. His 
health is currently stable, but the cancer can no longer be treated, and he is 
now staying at a nursing home in Chicago. If you are close to Alan and want 
more details, are in Chicago and could visit, or want to send him a card then 
email [email protected] and I'll pick it up. As Alan often said, 'cancer is 
shitty'."

If you know Alan, you may want - as a friend suggested to me - to "help fill 
his inbox with thoughtful messages that he would appreciate". If you'd like to 
post a card, email me personally with a note about how you know him and I can 
provide a postal address (but I won't make it public here). Note that the email 
address is not Alan’s own personal address.
