Both TSL and International Figure Skating have reported on Facebook (I'm in my phone so I can't figure out how to put the links in here) that he suffered a heart attack yesterday. No word on his condition. Hope he is ok and had a speedy recovery.

It's really scary when someone his age who has exercised and seemingly lived a good healthy life has something like this happen. Best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery.

Latest and greatest update via IN's tweeting:

Here's the latest update we received from a close friend of the Wylie family: "Paul is doing great! He is awake, talking and humbled by the outpouring. He is still trying to get his head around the reality of the ordeal of course, but is making jokes!"
