Frank always seemed like a decent guy, hope he can recover.

There have been reports of alcoholism as well.

Fritz freely admits rehab not exactly what I’d call reports of

And alcoholics seem to suffer less from vascular ischemia I’ve found unless they smoke a lot

The alcohol acts as a statin kind of

A plaque inhibitor

“Pickers” are nasty people, as anyone who has ever run a yard sale will tell you. That TV show never should have aired.

Sounds like you got low-balled at the Swap-o-Rama… it’s ok, we’re here for you…

Frank always seemed like a good egg.   I'll pray for your speedy recovery.

Frank was very public with his journey. He’d lost a lot of weight recently and thanked a ketogenic diet for that progress. This just goes to show that sometimes there’s more beneath the surface. Prayers up for him.

Reports have been that Frank has/had a prescription drug addiction as well as alcohol, in relation to a chronic back problem. Refusal to get help, or relapses led to his departure from the show.

Mike Wolf, in the meantime, has had a lot of changes in his personal life, and on the show.

I’m so glad people never had strokes before 2020. Must have been awesome. Nobody died either in your idiotic world.

From last year...

Why Frank Fritz Won’t Be Returning To ‘American Pickers’ Anytime Soon

Per the above, Fritz has been treated for back issues and Crohn's.

Reason the Crohn's is interesting...

Risk factors associated with short-term adverse events after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases

Read that study carefully.

I definitely will read it, but after I drive 2 1/2 hours. Thank you for providing it.
