Below is sad update on Dave Grundy's health. Our thoughts go to both Dave and Darleen.


Dick






Hello friends,
Dave, Matt, and Nancy met this morning with the palliative care team at UVM Medical Center.  I’m sorry to tell you that the cancer Dave has is too widespread and aggressive for treatment and so the next stage of his care will be hospice.  Dave will be moved soon to Mayo Healthcare’s hospice facility in Northfield.

This afternoon (11/28), Dave underwent surgery to remove a blockage near his bladder.  Doctors were concerned about renal failure.  I don’t know the results of that surgery as of this writing, but doctors were confident that they would be able to remove the blockage.  When Dave has recovered from the surgery, the move to Mayo Healthcare will go forward.

Dave cannot see visitors at this time, but when he is settled in Mayo, we’ll post visiting information.

As for cards and letters, keep sending to the home address for now.  We’ll get the mail to Dave quickly.  We’ll be sure to let you know if and when this changes.

Thank you so much for your love and outreach to these wonderful friends who’ve touched all of our lives, and your loving support at this difficult time.  We’ll update you again soon.  Thank you!




Thank you,
-Bill Paine
