Diary Entry for 5/9/2000

Cloudy day but no rain. Kay, head nurse from Madonna called to say Merrill has pneumonia again. She asked about feeding tube for him. She said his food is going into his lung instead of his stomach. I called Jim and Vern. We all agreed Merrill would not want the tube. Jim was here on his bike. I wrote Elgin and Carmi. Also sent application for Epic. They will go out tomorrow. I talked with Vern, Jim, and Lyla.
