Former Duke Coach Bill Foster Hospitalized

At 86, any hospital trip is challenging, but you could make a difference.

We got wind of this a few days ago but weren't comfortable posting personal and private information without permission. Scott Fowler has it online at the N&O now, and says the family would love some mail, so of course now we can talk about it.

Former Duke coach Bill Foster is in poor health in Charlotte. Without going into details, it's serious and something a younger person might overcome more easily (Foster is 86 now).

Fowler encourages anyone interested to write to Coach Foster, and his daughter, Debbie, says it really perks him up to hear from people.
