An Update on Vince Miller

The doctors have finally determined the cause of Vince’s problems: valley fever. It’s a fungal infection that can range from benign in some individuals to lethal in others. Sadly, it appears that Vince may be nearer the “lethal” end of the spectrum; despite switching antibiotics to target the fungus once the diagnosis was made, his condition has not improved. Vince’s condition has actually worsened, and the next couple of days will be critical in making some very difficult decisions regarding his care.

Contributions to help cover the costs of Vince’s care are still being accepted; the best means of contributing, if one desires, is to call Jim Elwood at 800-326-0996.

Right now, I am more concerned about Vince’s health, and the very difficult situation his friends are in. Vince has not regained consciousness since being placed on a ventilator, and I know firsthand how stressful it is to make decisions on behalf of someone who cannot communicate with you. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers, if you’re the praying sort.
