35 e-mails chronicling the last year of Jack's life

E-MAIL #29 ~ 12/17/07

Barb called today very shaken.

She had just talked with the doctors and it is not good. They are now giving Jack a 50/50 chance and say that it could be quick.

The steroids are again having very bad side effects and stressing his kidneys. The steroids also work against the other meds. Jack is very weak and if his systems start to collapse it could trigger a cardiac arrest. If that happens they will not attempt to revive him. It is time to pray for a miracle.

Barb needs a lot of prayer and was weeping on the phone wondering how she can live without him.
