I know I've come to you before with similar requests. My sister Kathy (a few of you have sailed with her) has been in the hospital since the 16th. Orignally just gall bladder problems, now the pancreas is involved and they can't do any surgery until the pancreatitus (sp?) is under control. No solid food since she went in, and they are finally putting some nutition in her IV to try to get her stable. I'm working on getting to Delaware to be with her this week - I have Navy inspections all week so it's tricky.

Doctors are at a loss as to why they can't get the pancreas problem under control.

Pardon my spelling - I'm off to Mayo.com to try to get a handle on the info her partner is giving us. And thanks for listening.
