Received this a bit ago from Amy Duffau-Leonard (Plutes on the boards):
Hi all...I'm writing to all of you today because I need your help. PLEASE, I need all the support and prayer you can muster.
My sister-in-law, Stacy, been fighting Leukemia since March of this year, and things have reached a critical stage. She received a cord blood transplant and things looked good - she was 90% 'cured', when she suddenly took a turn for the worse. She's been in a coma and cannot be revived. Thus far, she's had kidney failure, lung failure, liver failure, and multiple infections. Her heart has stopped twice so fat, including once while my brother grasped her, screaming at her to please not go. Doctors had to pull him off of her. This morning, her white cell count dropped dramatically,when that had been ons of her few stable stats previously. Currently, half of the medical team think she's already lost, but the other half thinks there's still hope. If things don't make a turn for the positive soon, however, my brother will be faced with the hardest choice NONE of us would ever want to face.
They have two children, twins, who are six years old, and very, very scared. They need their mother. And, my brother needs his wife. So, I am asking - no, PLEADING - with you all to say a prayer for Stacy's miracle. Pass this email on to EVERYONE you know...PLEASE. I know I may have inadvertently left some names off this email - please pick up my slack. Send this to strangers, family, co-workers, EVERYONE you know, and even don't know. I'm begging you - we need a miracle, and I believe in my heart of hearts that we can get one. Please don't disregard this - I'm speaking as much from the heart as I possibly can. Stacy, Rick, Matthew and Alexandra ALL need you. Let's make a miracle happen guys - I believe it's a possibility.
