Update On Judy
Just got this in from Michelle, Judy's niece. Last we had heard, they did emergency surgery on her to install the shunt to reduce the fluid pressure on her brain, and that seemed to go well and she was in the recovery room at the time:

As of about 5pm, the nurse told me that Judy is no better or no worse. She has not fully awaken from surgery yesterday, however is responding to light and sound tests. The nurse explained her status as lethargic. She is not alert and talking as of yet. They say they are waiting for swelling to go down, and of course for fluid to drain. So I guess for now, no news is good news, and we just need to keep on praying.
Thank you, Michelle

Michelle also mentioned that the chaplain at Methodist did talk to Don and helped get him calmed down, but that he is still distraught. On a positive note, a friend that was helping them out was now back in town and able to help again with things. 4 of their 11 dogs are being "fostered out" right now, for the time being ..
Please keep up the prayers .. !

Paul......I am still praying for Don and Judy. Hope that she shows improvement really soon and the swelling goes down.

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE; COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN; AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!! THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.
