City Clerk Deneen Frost

Hate to have to go back to back with posts about people with cancer, but I have another one. Our City Clerk Deneen Frost was all set to come back to work today. She has been out on medical leave pretty much all year. But after some trips to Rochester, things seemed to get straightened out, and she was going to come back to work today part time.

However, things went south on Friday with some infection or something, and she ended up in Mary Greeley. And things really started going south. There is a website called Caring Bridge where her husband has been giving updates through all her medical procedures. This one got posted last night, and doesn't sound too promising. But I wanted to share it here, to let people know the seriousness of the situation.

Very Critical - Still FightingDeneen is in very critical condition. The doctor told me it was time to call the boys and tell them to come home. Deneen is on a ventilator and is to weak to breathe on her own. She has a very severe intestinal infection and is severely dehydrated. But she is fighting this with everything she has and is hanging on like a trooper. They are going to do some catscans and ultrasound tests in the morning.

The doctor told me it was highly probable that Deneen would not make it. Talk about a kick in the gut! But he doesn't know my wife like I do. If anyone can beat this, she can. We are remaining as positive as we can.

All prayers and kind thoughts and favors from the man upstairs are greatly appreciated! They have her sedated right now and are continuing to give her fluids and antibiotics.

MayGod bless you all, and all the cancer patients in the world!
