[Tall-Corn] Update on Mary McGee

[Rebecca Young]

Good evening,

I just wanted to update you on Mary's STATUS. For the last 3 months, Mary
has been out of commission. She has had some pretty traumatic injuries. A
while back, she fell. She obtained severe injuries to her brain. She had 3
brain bleeds, all in different parts of the brain. This has affected many
aspects of her life. To much noise, light, and anything that is to
stimulating causes her not to be able to concentrate. The doctors have said
that it will take her several months to heal, and even then, they don't know
how much she will be able to recover. When she fell and hit her head, her
brain bounced around in her head kind of like a rubber ball. Just exactly
how much she will be able to heal is unknown at this time. Mary is the
Secretary of the Des Moine chapter, and is taking leave at this time. She is
interested in participating in convention if her health allows. She does
enjoy talking with people, so if you have her contact information, you might
try reaching out. Please keep her in your thought and prayers I will keep
you updated according to what Mary wants..
