Update on OCA member and friend - Deb Bell

This is Deb's husband Dan. Want to give you an update on Deb's condition. We received some bad news over the last few days. The doctors at Mayo told us that there is nothing more they can do to help Deb. Her condition, a combination of Liposarcoma, Crohns, fistulas, infections and fevers, can not be treated/cured and continues to get worse. We were told yesterday that she is entering the final stage of life and does not have much time left. Time being measured in term of weeks. Deb was transferred to St. Cloud hospital on Friday to be closer to home. The goal now is to make her as comfortable and pain-free as possible in her remaining time. She is in room S545 and visitors are definitely welcome. Deb, myself, Amanda and Jackie are appreciative of the outpouring of love we've received throughout Deb's ordeal.
