Thanks Pam for posting the update. Well, I'm not even quite sure what to say at this point. We all know obviously somewhere along the line Jude's medical care went south. We have watched her suffer for a very long time now. I have talked to her on the phone, but usually she is so weak it is hard to understand her. This has been so heartbreaking.
I know that Pam and Gunny and I'm sure many others have personally been in contact with her "medical team" (or lack thereof) in effort to get the much needed help for our dear Jude. Pam is on a mission - let's hope that something positive comes from this for Jude. Jude, when you are able to join us again, please know that you are always in our thoughts. We miss seeing you here and hope that you are feeling much, much better soon.
