The news I am seeing is not good. From the other forum:
Latest update at 5:40AM is there is nothing else that can be done. The Colonel has left 
instructions not to resuscitate and has asked to be returned home to the ranch to die.

It appears to be only a matter of time now.

And this:

 I received the following from Col. Cooper's daughter Lindy today:

"The latest is not good.

It has been determined that Dad is not strong enough to undergo the kyphoplasty 
procedure. His lungs and heart are starting to fail.

He will be coming home from the hospital either today or tomorrow and Mom will have 
hospice care in the home. I will be driving up tomorrow to do what I can to help.

Thanks for your interest.
Lindy"

Again, I am just passing on info I have seen on the other forum. I really wish it was better news.

Thank you for that ifo. Jeff Cooper has been an inspiration to many. I love his books & columns. My man was lucky enough to have met him & trained under him many years ago.

The two certainties in this world . . . well, a really good lawyer, a really good CPA, and a last-minute Presidential pardon (why, hello, Mr. Rich!) can get you out of the one, there's nothing to do about the other.

Colonel Cooper, enjoy your well-deserved place of honor in Valhalla.
