Southern Charm’s Butler, Michael Kelcourse Update

March 4, 2021 by tamaratattles 14 Comments

Southern Charm Michael the ButlerMany of you have asked about how to send well wishes to Michael Kelcourse, the much beloved butler and friend of Pat Atlschul. The latest update includes two ways to do just that. Michael is at Shepherd Spinal, receiving without question the best therapy available. Part of his therapy includes pet therapy with the centers six dogs who live there. I believe they are yellow labs if I recall correctly. Michael loves dogs to that is bringing him some comfort.

It appears that Michael is currently paralyzed on the lower half of his body. Hopefully, he can qualify for receiving an implant that can mechanically stimulate his spine. Either way, he’s in for a very long haul to recovery and we certainly wish him all the best.

If you’d like to send a card, I understand that Michael really appreciates the contact. Due to Covid he is not allowed any in person visitors. Here is the address:

Shepherd Center

Attention:  Michael Kelcourse, Room 411

2020 Peachtree Road NW

Atlanta, Georgia 30309-1426

If you prefer to send an electronic message, you can do that here. You can also check in there for updates. Luzanne Otte is taking care of the site for Michael. I’m so happy to see that Luzanne is running the site. We’ve spoken a few times and I am firmly of the belief that she has a direct line to God. Her prayers are so calming. I used to ask her to pray for me and I just feel like they really work. So I am so glad she is there for Michael.

      Thanks, but I am just passing on information. The real blessing is Luzanne Otte. She’s one of the kindest people I’ve ever been privileged to know. She really inspires me to be a better person.

    Thank you. He is definitely in great hands at Shepherd. A patient from Long Island with a brain injury was sent to Shepherd after hospitals in NY said there was nothing else to be done for her. Her Dad was a wealthy businessman and had her flown to Atlanta for care at Shepherd. The work they did for that young woman was remarkable.

    I grew up about 5 miles from the Shepherd center and attended the same school as their kids, their son James was in South America and diving. He was parylyzed misspelled so his Parents founded The Shepherd Center. They lost both James and his sister Dana so now only Mom Alana and their other son is alive. James died about a year ago. My Aunt left a bunch of money to Shepherd, she never married. Having said that I will be sending well wishes to sweet Michael.

    Thank you so so much for the update on Michael. And it’s so very comforting to know that he has so many good people that are there to look out for him and care for him and that when he does get out of the hospital he’s got people there that are going to be there for him. He’s such a wonderful human being and this breaks my heart that this has happened to him. Blessings to you and thank you again.

    Thank you TT. I’ve been wondering how he’s doing. Been wanting to cut down on my blog reading time and used Michael as the determining factor. I wanted to support bloggers who care about people who we all know you do.

    Before Luzanne left social media, I had a DM convo about all the bloggers who lent support during a terrifying ordeal. “TT is good people. I wish she and Banjo would bail from the reality show circus to save themselves the drama. She’s a really good person and held out a hand when I was at my lowest.” Refreshingly optimistic, grateful heart, and God on speed dial makes for an ideal care team for Michael.

    I saw Patricia posted a picture of Whitney with Michael not long ago. I was glad to see he took the time to show Michael some love. I wonder what Patricia and Michael’s relationship is like now. I can’t imagine he’ll move into her historic home. I’m sure his whole plan was to live there until Patricia died, then retire. Th stroke was a real 180 to his life plan. Since he can’t work at the old job and needs to focus on healing, I wonder how that works. I’m sure all savings were blown through at his rehab facility. I hope Patricia and Whitney are helping pay his bills, as well as supporting his emotional struggles from this life altering experience.

    Count your lucky blessings everyone. Life has many, many surprises for us, Gods blessings to Michael, Luzanne and TT. I hope these posts do well enough to continue writing them. Appreciate the updates.
