Subject: Update on Lisa


hello Phil,

Gary is not available to post a message for me, and I 
thought I would
ask you to be so kind as to handle it.

Sashka, Lisa's daughter, just left here. we got the terrible 
news
around 9 this morning that surgery is canceled because the 
biopsy
came back malignant. I guess I knew it all along, but hope 
and denial
are a mighty combination.
her liver and pancreas are both involved.
as you may know, pancreatic cancer is one of the most 
ferocious
cancers, and also most painful.
I am so heart sick, Phil, and continue to pray for our dear 
friend.
will you please let the list know? also, Sashka and I will 
deal with
the list admin business at a more appropriate time.
the list is very important to Lisa, and this is just a 
little thing I
can do for her at this time. please let me know you received 
this email.
there is a chance Lisa may regain mental clarity after a 
procedure is
completed tomorrow that the doctors hope will allow them to 
reduce
her medication levels.
at present she is really out of it, and the meds are not 
keeping her
totally pain free.
thank you, Phil.
Jennifer
