Subject: [Colorado-talk] Update on Ray McGeorge

Greetings:

Since I last wrote, we had been blessed with a few days of relatively 
little change and signs of improvement.  Today, however, is another one 
of those days with a bump in the road.  Unfortunately, Ray suffered a 
stroke today.  The doctors cannot predict ultimately how this will 
affect Ray.  It is simply too early to tell.  The good sign is that he 
has been stable since and he is moving all of his limbs around and has 
been over-breathing the respirator often.  He also has a blood clot in 
his lung that they are discussing how to treat.  One method is to 
insert through a catheter a filter in his artery would  prevent that 
clot from either lodging in his heart or his brain.

This afternoon I went down to the hospital and spent well over a half 
an hour in Ray's room, holding his hand and talking to him.  My sense 
is that he is fighting this hard and that he has definitely not given 
up despite these bumps in the road.  The strength emanating from Ray is 
palpable.  We need to keep our prayers and thoughts focused on him.  
Diane told me again how very much she appreciates everyone's messages, 
prayers, thoughts, and love.  Keep them coming!
