Ed McMahon Sick

Welcome back to The Expressionist Magazine

Ed McMahon is no spring chicken when it comes to television.  He was the voice that announced Johnny Carson on the Tonight Show for almost 35 years; coining the phrase “HERE’S JOHNNY.”  He was Johnny’s side kick on the show and even filled in for Johnny sometimes in his absence.  

Later on in his career, Ed would go into being the official spokesman for The American Publisher’s Clearing House Sweepstakes; and later c0-stared on this venture with the legendary Dick Clark before his stroke.

Ed McMahon has even done some commercials over the years, more notably for AARP and Colonial Life Insurance.

It saddens us to find out that Ed at the ripe age of 81, caught Pneumonia and has been hospitalized for almost 30 days in critical condition. Ed is also suffering from bone cancer which is complicating the recovery. The outlook is unpredictable, doctors haven’t said that he will recover or not.  All our prayers are with Ed and his family, and we wish him a full recovery.
