Jim Ross Suffers Bell's Palsy Attack - Off SD! Tonight

Jim Ross suffered his third Bell's Palsy attack during a flight from Oklahoma to South Carolina on Monday night. Ross wrote the following on his website today: "I was able to reach WWE doctors who were in Jacksonville for Raw and they were able to call in the medicines I needed to get started on to slow down the paralysis. Now we just wait and see how the meds work and Mother Nature takes her course. My plans are to tape SD tonite working with the King and perhaps even Michael Cole so we can make sure we can do the job that the product and the talents deserve."

UPDATE: Jim Ross just posted the following moments ago: "This is an update on my previous blog. Not the news I wanted to share. It has been decided that I should not risk further issues by working tonight and I am in the process of arranging a flight back to OKC so I can see a neurologist on Wednesday. Life is about facing the challenges we encounter so I am going to do all I can to get better and back at the announce desk asap. I wish I had more answers but I simply don't at this time. I want to be a part of Bragging Rights but only time will tell if that will be physically possible. My passion and love for the game is in tact but I have to do what's best for my long term health. WWE has been tremendously supportive of my situatiion of which I am very grateful. Never count me out of the game as this isn't the first mountain that I have had to climb. Jerry Lawler and Michael Cole will handle SD from Columbia. My thanks to every one for understanding this matter. Better days are on the horizon."
