Trying a replacement µSD card allowed him to revive and update his Glo without error. The SD Association's formatter utility reported multiple errors when attempting to format the original card.

This does not appear to be from operator error but simply the cards having a limited life.
I remember one of my old readers having a card inside (Kobo Glo maybe). If it's the storage on the Forma that's failing then I guess it is time to replace it.
