I've just learned that Brian had a second stroke, that he can't speak and is paralyzed. So sad.

Does anyone know who is and how to contact his family or any relatives?

If so, let the people at the restaurant know.

Thanks.

Several people have PM'd me with questions that some of you may want the answers to also.

1) Is he at CMC? I don't know.
2) From googling I learned the following: His name is Brian Ramsey

Cafe Cubano is located at Calle Pedro Clisante #17, Sosua, phone number 829-921-1763

Sorry I have no additional information.

Brian is originally from canada. I have contacted mutual friends here in Canada that may have better contacts with his family. We saw Brian at his Cafe a week ago & March last year year, before that it had been many years since seeing him after he left Canada.

I have sat with him and talked a couple of times. Seemed like a really great guy and a wealth of DR knowledge. I wish him a speedy recovery. Thoughts and prayers are with him.

Talked to him last month about RD issues and his origins in PEI. He was a good source of information about Sosua. He did say he was worried about having another stroke. I wish him well.

He was following all the "rules" after the first major stroke. I wonder what happened?? So sorry to hear this and wish him a GOOD recovery.

This is tough news. I always thought of him as the unofficial mayor of Pedro Clisante.

I will stop by the restaurant to inquire if he's up for receiving visitors.

Yes Brian is in the CMC intensive care will be moved to a Ward soon. The Canadian Consulate has contacted me and also his doctor at CMC. WAYNE RAMSAY (brother). Once in the ward he can have visitors it would be nice if a friend could visit him.
