[Oe List ...] Update on the Morrill family

[hypnocenter]

Unfortunately, dear friends, Justin's surgery, which we thought would handle
the problem, hasn't done so.  So far he's gone through about 12 units of
blood within a week's time.  After coming thru the surgery and recovering
his sense of humor, and color, the bleeding started up again, scaring the
hell out of him, and us, of course.  Our daughters have been like rocks, and
have handled the nursing staff and doctors far more objectively than I would
have been able to.  Anita lives near, of course, and Gen decided to stay on
longer, hopefully not jeopardizing her job too badly.  The doctors tell us
not to worry - they WILL find out where the bleeding is coming from and
SOLVE it!  It's not a burst artery; the blood stops and starts; so it's all
a matter of finding the source.  Big problem has been that it stops before
he can get to the testing area, so they can't spot where it is. Being at the
hospital over a holiday weekend hasn't helped much because everyone is gone
who does the testing, and they have to call people in to do it.  He's on a
STAT alert, now, in terms of racing him to the test site when he bleeds
again.  Right now, he's VERY tired.  The girls insisted I stay home for
awhile today to rest up, myself.  I'm using the time to keep busy by going
through my e-mail, but I've asked to be picked up by Sam at 2:00 to go down
there.  Hard to stay home when Justin isn't here!  Will keep you informed.
Thanks for your concern, and, I imagine, your prayers, as well - most
welcome, believe me!
Del

Thanks for the update on Justin. Very glad,, Dolores, that you 
persisted and got the hospital to take his condition seriously. It's 
great to hear that Justin is recuperting and getting back to good 
health.
