[Oe List ...] Judith Update May 27th

[Jayandem2 at aol.com]

Dear friends and  colleagues: 
First off, let me  thank you for all the wonderful emails and cards you 
have sent since hearing of  Judith's fall and subsequent hospitalization.  I 
can't stress more strongly  how much they have meant to her and to me. to hear 
from so many folks from all  eras of our life. 
I wish I could have  a more encouraging note to send, but Judith is back in 
the hospital as of last  Wednesday.  She had been in Surrey Place  Rehab 
Center since April 17th.  they  attempted to do as much occupational and 
physical therapy as possible, but she  continued to have severe pains in the left 
leg that was broken just below the  top of the femur.  That really limited 
what they could accomplish, and she  didn't make much progress.  A bunch of 
other complications set in,  particularly  a urine infection, bad 
dehydration and  undernourishment due to her total lack of appetite. 
Anyway, she was  readmitted to the hospital for more medical care than was 
possible  at  the rehab facility.  She is quite disabled, and certainly 
needs all the  good vibes and prayers that can come her way. 
Meg and I are doing  well, and we have wonderful caregivers that take good 
care of both of us, (even  though we hire them to only take care of Meg.)  
As I have mentioned  previously, our wonderful church community also cares so 
well for  us. 
I will keep you  updated. 
Grace, Peace, and  Love, 
Mike
