Greetings Friends, as many of you know, Ray McGeorge came down with
meningitis and was rushed to the hospital on May 9th. He has been unconscious
ever since. Unfortunately, the meningitis caused several complications
including seizures and a massive stroke. Ray has been relatively stable the
last couple of weeks but has shown no signs of improvement.
Ray is a very strong person and very clear about his wishes. He has an
advanced directive, also known as a living will. He has explicitly expressed
the desire that his life not be extended artificially. Diane has honored
Ray's wishes and asked that he be taken off the respirator. He has been
off the respirator for limited periods but has always been placed back on.
Additionally, this morning Ray is being transferred from Kendrid Hospital,
which is a long term acute care facility, to St. John's Hospis.
Quite frankly, we do not know specifically what the future holds. Ray has
fought this battle as hard as he knows how. Without the respirator, we do
not know exactly how Ray will do. We do know, however, that we are
carrying out his wishes. During this very difficult time, we request your
continued thoughts and prayers.
