Greetings Roswell Faculty and Staff,
You may have heard, or seen online, that Roswell senior Robbie Roper is in critical condition in a hospital in Florida.

Over the weekend, Robbie became sick and vomited while vacationing with family. After going to the ER and a series of tests, he was life-flighted to the University of Florida hospital where it was determined that his body is not clearing ammonia from his blood and it has risen to toxic levels. This has resulted in a very serious, life threatening situation.

Mr. Roper has agreed to me sharing this information and has asked for prayers as Robbie continues to fight. I know the entire community has Robbie and his family in their thoughts and prayers. I will share more information as it becomes available.

Thanks.

Robert

The shoulder surgery/anesthesia thing appears to be incorrect. Read the above links.

FWIW this kid was probably going to be a Gator as well.
