• Bell's Palsy Diagnosis

  In early 2009, Belue confirmed that he had been diagnosed with Bell's Palsy, a nerve disorder which leads to temporary paralysis on one side of the face. Belue reported that the left side of his face had been affected, leading to slurred speech. Due to these speech problems, Belue took a hiatus from his radio talk show. In a post on his blog, Belue wrote that his doctors expected him to make a full recovery in a few weeks to several months.Buck's Blog: Where Has Buck Been? (January 12, 2009)
