‘Deadliest Catch’ captain recovering from stroke

Deadliest Catch Captain Phil Harris is recovering from a stroke he suffered last Friday. Kiro Radio reports that a crew member on the Seattle-based Cornelia Marie found Harris on the cabin floor over the weekend. He was taken to an Anchorage hospital where he underwent a 12-hour surgery and was put into a medical-induced coma to relieve the brain swelling, TMZ reports. This morning Harris’ sons Jake and Josh updated the Discovery Channel’s website with news on their father, “Today, dad showed some good signs of improvement, squeezing our hands and even summoning his trademark Captain’s bluntness by telling the doctors and nurses, ‘Don’t f*** up.’ We are encouraged but still very cautious.” (Photo of Harris at 2009 CatchCon.)
