Monday PM, March 16, 2009

John has remained stable today. He began several treatments this evening towards his recovery. The doctors at Roanoke Memorial Hospital remain encouraged by the schedule of his treatments. They remain convinced his diagnosis is Wegener's Disease, a disease which begins via infection and targets the bady's blood vessels, lungs and kidneys. There is plenty more information available on the Internet.

There is no doubt John is very sick. But the disease, when caught in time, has a 95% success rate of full recovery since treatment was discovered in the early 1970's.

John has a tough night of treatments ahead of him. Please continue to offer your thoughts and prayers.
