Dear Friend of Bee,
I haven’t posted any updates for a while because there have been no dramatic changes, for better or worse. But I relize that many of you are worried and want to know what has been going on.
On a positive note, he has stayed out of the hospital and his lungs have much improved. He often sounds like his old self on the phone.
On the other hand, his white cell count is up and doctors are worried that this could be the prelude to another pancreatitis attack.
I had been hoping that his recovery would be quick and dramatic. I now realize that this is going to be a very slow process.
Some years ago, one of my cousins was felled with pancreatitis. She had an absolutely terrible time for a full year. But she has been doing quite well for the past decade.
I guess we just have to be patient and keep hoping.
I wonder how Judge Daniel Ford is feeling these days.
