Update on Marilyn Bordner

Marilyn Bordner started waking up from the coma yesterday (July 26^th).  It sounds like they verified it was a seizure, not a stroke, or an aneurysm.  They think it is probably reversible – but she is looking at a lot of physical therapy.  We don’t know about her eye sight – that wasn’t mentioned in the voice mail.  They took her off all her pain meds – so she is in pain and is starting to thrash around a lot because of that.  She does have the nurses with her all the time as she is still in ICU. A lot of prayers and good wishes are still needed for her and for Bill.   --Update from Marilyn Schafer via Betty Hughes

Prayers Needed

Marilyn Bordner, former Grand Representative of Bolivia, and Secretary of Spokane Chapter,  is in the hospital in Spokane.   She is in ICU and can’t have visitors.  She has been in Sacred Heart since Sunday, July 14th.  We understand she may have had seizures and they had to induce a comma.  Prior to inducing the comma, she lost her eye sight.  It is a very sad and scary situation and we don’t really know what to expect.  The doctors are not sure what is wrong, but we are requesting prayers for her and for the doctors to be able to determine what is going on.  Also prayers for her husband, Bill, while he waits to find out what is happening.  I’m sure “Thinking Of You” cards sent to their home would be appreciated for Bill. Their address is in the Blue Book under Spokane Chapter.

OES Charity Golf Tournament

If for whatever reason you didn't get your golf team registered or signed up for the BBQ you still have a few more hours to get information to Chairmen--Bill & Alice Hammontree.  Contact them by phone (253-922-1288) or email abhammon@comcast.net by 12 noon on Monday, July 22nd.  They will need the following for each civilian so passes can be obtained from JBLM.  First, Middle & Last Name (same as it shows on driver's license); date of birth (month/date/year); driver's license number; last 4 digits of SSN.  You can send the actual form with your check later in the week but they need the above info to turn into the pass office by Monday.  Later registrations will be accepted BUT those people will need to go to the visitor's pass office the day of the tournament to get permission to get on JBLM.  Of course anyone in a car going on JBLM with the driver of the vehicle having military ID can get on that way.

Golf tournament reminder!

If you are planning on going to the golf Tournament at McCord Friday, August 9th, THE DEADLINE FOR SENDING IN YOUR REGISTRATION IS THIS FRIDAY, JULY 19!!! This is an absolute deadline because everyone attending must go through a screening process to have access to the golf course which is on the base. I encourage you to attend. If you don’t play golf, there is plenty of time to socialize in the afternoon and a fun dinner and raffle.
