I think this is what Joyce was trying to send to the group.

>I just returned from Rose Hospital here in Denver where I was able  to 
>visit with Diane McGeorge and also able to see Ray very briefly.  He is 
>still in the ICU and on the respirator but he has been very stable 
>today.  Yesterday afternoon after I had last written, Ray hit a rough 
>patch where many of his vital signs went out of wack including his 
>temperature which exceeded 105 for a couple of hours.  They instituted 
>all kinds of treatment yesterday and brought everything under control 
>in the night.

>Today, he has been showing definite signs of improvement in that he 
>fusses when they try to move him around too much and he has been 
>gripping Diane's hand and not wanting to let it go.  He is still very 
>heavily sedated but they are going to reduce those medicines slowly 
>through the day with the hope that they will be able to revive him 
>fully tomorrow.  There is great hope that he has passed through the 
>worst of the infection and has rounded the corner.

>Diane expressed great grattitude for everyone's thoughts and prayers.  
>She wants all of us to keep them coming.  From what the doctors have 
>told Diane, it is now the beginning of the time period when they expect 
>the antibiotics to start taking full effect and pushing back the 
>infection.  I am very confident and hopeful  that Ray will fight 
>through this, but we need to keep sending our prayers and positive 
>thoughts Ray and Diane's way.  I will update the lists further when I 
>know more.  Please feel free to circulate this broadly so that all of 
>the McGeorge's friends know what is going on.
