[stanford_status] Stanford is dying. Not much time left.

[John R Larsen]

Hello Everyone,

I'm sorry to have to inform you that it appears that Stanford 
doesn't have much time left.  The CT scan this morning shows that 
there is fluid building up in his abdomen.  The tumors in the liver 
are bleeding.  We've been told that there is a very slim possibility 
that surgery might be possible, but we don't know yet.  

Stanford and Joyce left by ambulance about 10:00 AM for Dartmouth 
Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC) in Lebanon, NH.  Their surgeons will 
evaluate his condition and make a determination, but Dr. Julie Kim 
said it is a very slim possibility.  The tumor mass is simply too 
large.

Below is a link to a map with directions to DHMC:

Go north on I-89 and take exit 18.
Turn right at the bottom of the ramp.
At the third signal light take a left turn.
Follow the signs to the North Entrance.

Stanford will be in room 541 of the Pediatric Oncology Unit.

We're devastated.  All along we have said that "It is in the Lord's 
hands".  He is in charge.  Please pray for Stanford and for us.

John
