Deborah Needs Our Thoughts And Prayers - Updated
I just learned that our Deborah is in the hospital, in ICU, with a collapsed lung and pneumonia. I was just talking with a nurse (not Deb's nurse, just someone I met) who told me that a collapsed lung and pneumonia are very treatable. Nevertheless, Deb is still in a delicate state. The nurse suggested we use the power of prayer.
UPDATE: Good news! Deb is improving. Her close friend, CB wrote yesterday, Deborah is doing better today. I believe she is off of the O2, was awake & apparently present to her husband's stories.

Regular readers know that our Deborah has suffered a brain aneurysm. Although we continue to be delighted with reports of good progress (the latest update is here), she will be unable to vote today.

Please keep sending her your good thoughts and prayers but today, please give her the gift she'd like the most: Vote for Deb! Please share your GOTV efforts in our comments section.

Good News About Deborah
As regular readers of this site know, our dear Deborah suffered a massive aneurysm in her brain on the evening of October 16.
Deborah is still in the hospital but today (October 25, 2008) she woke up and followed what her family said and nodded when they told her about certain things. The nurse said she is doing very, very well.
We'll keep you posted. Please keep the positive thoughts flowing.
