>From: Scott LaBarre,

>Greetings Friends:
>
>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.
>Thanks,
>Scott C. LaBarre, Esq.
