Medical Status Update

Dear Liga family member

Update as of Monday morning:

Liam and Julia are expected to be released as early as Tuesday. They each have a parent there who will travel home with them. They are in stable condition. They are expecting to return home on Wednesday.

Hayley is doing somewhat better and hopefully she will be released later in the week. She is still in critical condition but her vital signs are improving.

Media calls. Please, don't talk to the media. Refer all media requests to Pat Spier. Get their name and number and tell Pat via email, brthnrs@charter.net and she will call them back.

Also, Kathi Blythe is our representative to help the families. She is in direct contact with them to provide them with any assistance they may need.

Janet said that she cannot respond to all of the text and phone messages, but that she is okay.

Our condolences and prayers go out to John and to his family for this terrible loss. We also send our prayers for the complete and fast recovery of the other victims of this tragic event. Please know that the Liga Executive Committee is standing by to assist the victims and families in any way that we can. While we understand that many of you may have questions that you want to voice, we would appreciate your indulgence for the immediate future as the leadership team works through the things that we need to do. For the time being, we would ask you to help us in keeping our phone lines open so that we can attend to pressing matters.


The Liga Executive Team,

Janet Lapp, President
Winnie Parish, President-Elect
Stephen Blythe, Treasurer
