[Sca-cooks] update on Baron Master Joram Goldspoons

[wildecelery at aol.com]

> Friends,
> It is with a heavy heart I have to report that Baron
> Master Joram Goldspoons 
> has decided to give up his valiant fight and return
> home from the hospital for 
> whatever time he may have left. He had been doing
> well at the rehab center 
> for a short time, but had several trips back and
> forth to the hospital, and 
> ultimately could not sustain the progress he had
> made. He is a fighter by nature 
> and giving up is very hard, but after three years of
> battle he just can't do it 
> anymore. He is as sick now as he was a year ago
> before the transplant.
> 
> He is scheduled to be brought home by ambulance
> tomorrow (Friday). Hospice 
> care has been arranged, but the burden of his care
> will still fall on his 
> mother. We have been told that he will be in a lot
> of pain, so he will be on heavy 
> meds. The doctors predict he has less than two
> weeks, and even though Joram has 
> continually astounded everyone, it is still probably
> a matter of weeks at 
> best. He is weak but looking forward to being in
> familiar surroundings and with 
> his cats.
> 
> I would ask you to continue to keep him in your
> thoughts and prayers, even as 
> I thank you for doing so all through this long time.
> Messages of support have 
> always been passed through to him and they have
> helped bolster his spirits so 
> many times! What he needs now is to be at peace with
> ending his suffering, 
> and reassurance that the time he has spent with us
> meant something worthwhile. 
> 
> If you wish to write him, once again the address is:
> 147 Petteys Ave., 
> Providence, RI 02909-5851. Please do not send any
> gifts, although if you do desire 
> to help him and his mother, frankly, the thing they
> need is money. Money orders 
> are the best method, and can be made out to his
> mother, Jean Daly. 
> 
> Thank you again for your care and support!
> (Please forward this message as you see fit, but
> particularly to the Laurel 
> list and the Cook's Guild, please, and my apologies,
> as always, for the 
> cross-postings.)
> 
> Mistress Asenath Chamberly of Morrismount
