Jack hanging in

CC Family,

Just off phone with Pat Paxton – she says tough ol’ Jack is hanging in. But Pat is very clear that they are in a hard place right now.

So far, Jack has been able to respond to Pat with a squeeze of his right hand. The medical team is continuing to push strong antibiotics to fight an infection that began in the kidneys – this in addition to the serious stroke he suffered on Saturday.

Jack was moved to a private room yesterday and cards (but no flowers yet, please) are welcome:

Pat and Jack’s whole family very much appreciate the continued prayer support and concern from all our Executive Director’s Marine and other friends.

The USMCCCA  remains operational, with Kate Stark serving as interim execdir.

Love and Semper Fidelis,
Keith Oliver, National President
