[Nfbwv-talk] Joyce Porter is Very Ill

[Karen McDonald]

I talked to her this afternoon when Roland called to tell us that 
she was home.  She sounds tired but she still sounds like 
herself.  I was glad to be able to talk to her.

Good News!

I talked to Joyce today and she was getting ready to go home.  
She will
still have to be careful and she will have some special treatment 
in July.

 I have been very distressed all day since I first heard this 
news.  I
 feel I
 got to know her a little better at the leadership conference and 
a nicer
 more thoughtful and generous person I've never met.  She will be 
in my
 thoughts and prayers until she is better.  Thanks for letting us 
know.

 Jack, VP
 Sightless Workers' Guild

 As some of you know, Joyce did not feel well after the Braille 
Peer
 Tutoring Training over the Memorial weekend.  She has been in 
the
 hospital for about a week now.  They have had to give Joyce 
blood and
 platelets.  They did cauterize and clamp off a place in her 
esophagus
 that was bleeding.



 I talked with Roland last night and he said that Joyce isn't 
doing very
 well.  Her blood platelets are down pretty low and her blood 
pressure
 was 116 over 39.  Since her blood count is down and it is 
putting her
 at
 risk for illnesses and infections, they have a sign on her door
 requesting that people not visit who aren't feeling well or who 
may
 have
 some type of infection.  In case anyone wants to send her cards, 
I am
 including her home mailing address and I am sure Roland and Ann 
will
 take them to her.  Her address is as follows:



 Joyce Porter

 924 Florida Street

 Milton, WV  25541



 Everyone have a great day.



 Charlene
