The Sad Departure of Yellow Wiggle Greg Page Due to Orthostatic Intolerance

The Wiggles have sadly announced the departure of the yellow wiggle Greg Page. Greg is one of the founding members ofThe Wiggles which has existed over the last fifteen years. The Wiggles are one of the biggest bands in kids music. They can be compared to the Ninja Turtles,Power Rangers, or Barney the Purple Dinosaur.

Greg's replacement is his understudy Sam Moran to ensure the future of this successful entertainment group catered tofive year olds and under. Like the Olsen twins The Wiggles conglomerate includes clothing, DVDs, party items, dolls, toys etc.

Greg has been ill for months and it has affected his performance. He is suffering from a condition related to blood pressure and it is not life threatening. The illness is genetic, Greg has decided to leaveThe Wiggles to concentrate more on his condition.

"This emotional decision which was very difficult, as I have dedicated almost half my life to The Wiggles, and with a question mark over my health, I feel this is the right decision. I will miss The Wiggles and the other guys very much, as well as seeing all the children in the audience that we perform in front of. I wish the guys continued success, and welcome Sam Moran with open arms to the Yellow Skivvy - I know he is a great performer, and is well equipped to be the Yellow Wiggle," Page said in a prepared statement.

Greg is suffering from a illness called Orthostatic Intolerance. The illness involves a sudden fall in blood pressure that occurs when a person assumes a standing position. It is caused by Hypoglycemia (a decreased amount of blood in the body), resulting from the excessive use ofdiuretics, vacillators, or other types of drugs, dehydration, or prolonged bed rest. The disorder may be associated with Addison's Disease, atherosclerosis (build up of fatty deposits in the arteries) diabetes, and certain neurological disorders including ShyDrager Syndrome and other autonomies.
