Excellent news although I personally think that his work with Wings is of a lot more importance than the Moodies.

Think of a well known song Denny sang as a Moody Blue.

Watched the induction ceremony on HBO (DVR, not live) Denny got to speak first and said he’d make it short since he wasn’t in the band very long. Then the rest of the guys played 3 songs: I’m Just A Singer (In A Rock and Roll Band), Knights In White Satin and Ride My See-Saw. I thought maybe they’d get Denny up there are do Go Now, but he remained in the audience. ️

Sad news:
Hello, this is Elizabeth Hines, Denny’s wife, asking for a helping hand on Denny’s behalf.
As you may know, Denny has been going through health issues these past several months, which recently turned critical.
For the past two months, he’s been in and out of the hospital concerning an illness in his lungs that developed after his short bout with COVID last year. He’s had multiple tests, X-rays and scans that are ongoing, along with three surgeries, most recently for a collapsed lung, which includes an inserted chest tube that is temporarily needed until his lung heals.
He recently contracted a bacterial infection in his blood, which he is still battling, but seems to be under control.
The doctors have explained once he’s medically well, he will need several weeks of physical and occupational rehabilitation. Denny does not have medical insurance. The hospital has been working with us regarding this problem, but a rehabilitation center, along with the multiple lab work and specialists, will not.
I’m asking for financial help to get Denny the medical care and recovery time he requires. It’s important he concentrates on healing during this time. Our goal is to have Gypsy Den home in time for his birthday, October 29. He wants to be able to play his guitar again, presently, he’s too weak.
I want to thank you all in advance for your continued love, prayers, encouragement and support during this difficult time. ️
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Hines(she set up a gofundme account)

Denny Laine's wife Elizabeth has posted a GoFundMe to raise money to cover his medical expenses. She writes that lung issues that arose after he had COVID-19 "recently turned critical," and that he has no health insurance. Yikes.
Let me add a small commercial message, as someone who suffered permanent nerve damage from my own bout with COVID: Wear a freakin' mask. It's still out there, and it can really mess with your life.

Yikes indeed.
I am praying for Denny! -
