ASKING FOR YOUR HELP - PLEASE READ (updated !!)

My Fellow Stones Fans,

This is not easy for me, but I'm at the point where I can't worry about being judged for something stupid I did almost 20 years ago.

I recently found out I have Hepatitis, and it's at the point now where I need to publicly solicit donors. If I can't find a compatible donor, chances are I'll have less than a year or two to live. I'm already on medication that is making me feel ill every day. The way a living donation works is they find a compatible donor (same blood type, body mass index, etc.) in good health and take a piece or "lobe" from their liver and transplant it. The liver actually regenerates and grows back to its original state within a few months.

They take the entire "bad" liver out of the recipient and replace it with this "lobe," and if I'm lucky my body won't reject it and I'd get to live a normal lifespan, albeit on regenerative drugs. I'd be ecstatic just to have another 10 years at this point. You see, I look after my mom, who is 88 years old. The thought of leaving her here alone is more than I can bear. Most of my family are gone, and the few who are left cannot care for her. I have no family I can solicit as donors either.

Last year, there were something like 6,500 transplants. There are currently 17,000 people on national waiting lists. I live in the New York area, so my chances of getting a compatible donor are slim to none. My blood type is O+. I'm asking everyone I know, because the more people who are aware of this, the better my chances are. Please don't turn this into a discussion thread. If you can help or know someone who can, PM me.

Here is a link explaining living liver donation:

http://www.liverfoundation.org/education/info/transplant/

http://www.livingdonorsonline.org/liver/liver.htm

Thanks to the mods for allowing me to make this public plea. If you know me personally, you know how hard it is for me to "go public" with this. I'm putting my faith in the Stones Community.

You've been very brave to go public with this problem, but you've done the right thing as making more friends and family aware of it can only increase your chances. Well done.

You know your friends will be here for you anytime. Keep your spirits up. Let's hope something will come up sooner or later (preferably sooner).

Got to roll me.... this is very frightening... I am already an organ donor when I die but how do I translate that to being a living donor?? I wrote the lady on your link.  The donor process is so mysterious.

I wish you HUGE SUCCESS in this venture. We simply must get your operation. Keep talking to people all around you and make some connections for someone to see to your mama while you are recuperating. ..... I give you big hugs...I'm sorry I just realized you didn't want us to write on this thread.

How do I figure out what my blood type is?

EDIT: And if I remember correctly from biology class, O+ people can still accept blood from O donors, right? Does it work the same way with livers?

It would be on :
a) your birth certificate (or should be)

b) On your Blood donation card (Red Cross or otherwise)

c) Your primary care physician would probably know if you had blood drawn...or they can do it for you.

d) ask your parents


correct about the donor part...actually O+ can donate to all blood types EXCEPT O- (a rare blood type)...inversely...AB+ can receive from ALL types but can only donate to AB+

**** Mary...I don't pray...but i will say that my thoughts, positive vibes and chants are heading your way...I will be brave with you if stay brave!!! ****

Wow, I just read all your replies. LJ was right - the Stones Community is the BEST.
Gazza was also good enough to ask Stonesdoug to post my public plea on Shidoobee here:
http://shidoobeewithstonesdoug.yuku.com/topic/22453?page=1

It really brought my spirits up to read all your replies. I needed that. I've been holding this in for months and not letting it out was a huge burden, so if I ever was rude to anyone here, I apologize - it's never any good to keep something this big on your shoulders and not expect it to affect you in a negative way.

God bless LJ for being there for me when I needed it, and Gazza for his infinite patience and help. You're all wonderful.

Now all I need is a donor...

Oh, GTRM, my heart is heavy....Sad I am so sorry you have to go through this. Sad I, too, would not be a compatible donor, but I DO pray and I will add you to my nightly prayer list. I know that telling all was not an easy thing to do, but it was the right thing to do! The more who know, the quicker you will find that donor.

A guy I worked with several years ago's wife needed a kidney transplant, and he put a sign on his work van (he was a contractor) with a short message and his phone number.

He told me he did get a few calls, and ultimately his wife found a donor, although I don't know if it was from someone seeing the sign on the van.

Might be worth a try.

Thanks Mr. Yeats, for the words of encouragement.
I figure the more people who know, the better my chances are. There just has to be someone out there who can spare a little piece of themselves that will grow back so that I can live. I'd do it in a heartbeat if the situations were reversed.

GTRM, baby, you're a Keith Richards girl, conventional stuff like that can't even get close to hurting you. It will be alright.
You've got e-mail.  Kiss


Unfortunately it cant be stickied on the main board without it being moved to the 'important topics' section - and sometimes those topics tend to not get noticed as easily. However, what we've done yesterday when Mary posted this was to have it in both sections - so that if it ever drops off the first page of this part of the site, it can easily be located by going to the 'important topics' section and the link saying its been moved to the main board will automatically take you to it.

That way, it will always remain on page 1 of the board, no matter what.

Thanks for everyone's support so far. Let's keep it going.

My and Mindy's hearts are heavy, dear.
I will try my best to help you.

My thoughts are with you.
Have you looked into support groups for those that have had transplants?
I would think that they likely have information on how to find a donor, what works and what does not, etc.

Oh, honey...although I knew about the situation, it cuts me in half to actually read it here.
I'm so proud of you for making this public, and I think it will be the key to finding a solution.
You are helping everyone who waits on transplant lists everywhere by raising awareness.

Mary, baby cakes. From the first time I met ya I was in love with your soul. You are one of the coolest people on the planet. Chicago was a blast, so was AC. But your face at the Beacon was PRICELESS. With hard times comes good friends. I am so glad you shared this with your fellow, your fellow.....well family. I think you have started a chain reaction that will give you so many avenues, help is on the way. Just by reading some of the posts , people are already leaning your way. You have to keep strong and push forward. I will not accept nothing less. Take one day at a time, accept all the help you can get and keep strong. I know you would do the same for any of us. Your ass is going to be at the BBQ this year come hell or high water. As you have noticed I have refrained from saying Fuck the whole time. But..............you better get your fucking ass in gear darling, I will see you in May.

My Sincere Love,
Tom

GTRM, hon, this will work out.  The very definition of faith is belief in things not seen.  You may not see your donor at this very second, but you will.  You are in my prayers.

To find out if you can be a living liver donor call and leave a message at the phone # below ( 888-894-6361 ) : (there is a few weeks recuperation peroid for the donor):

The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) is involved in the transplant coordination process and is an excellent resource for information on the transplant process. They can be reached at 888-894-6361 or you can visit their website for educational brochures on living donor transplants: http://www.unos.org/resources/brochures.asp. We also recommend speaking with your doctor to see if you are eligible to be a living liver donor.

We hope this information is helpful to you.

Thank you for contacting the American Liver Foundation,
ALF Info

I was told that the transplant center that Gottorollme is assigned to will have to evaluate any potential donor as to age, blood type and health parameters.

As I recall, I asked nicely to settle the tab, Meg asked nicely, YOU asked nicely, Nanky asked nicely.....nope...Tele sat there with a blank friggin stare.

It was our Joisey Girl, GTRM, who finally got that grifter to fess up that he had no cash. That's our girl. Tough as nails!!!

Lynn has gotten me an appointment to be evaluated by a specialist in the Liver Unit at Montefiore Hospital. This from a woman who's never even met me. It's astounding how much kindness and love is coming from this community of ours.

I have to thank you again for all your public posts and private PM's. Some of you guys have really given me hope, and that's something I was in short supply of last week.

GTRM, Dallas Taylor, the CSN(Y) drummer who's now a drug counselor, wrote an autobiography in the 1990s that addressed his transplant experience.  You may want to check it out.

GotToRollMe, how goes the struggle? (I don't mean to be presumptuous here, being new and all, but your situation moves me- maybe for personal or selfish reasons...dunno)

Have you got your friends and mates to put up signs on their vehicles yet?

Good work Gazza and Starbuck getting the word out on other Stones boards; any other music boards worth a shot? I'm thinking of a couple Springsteen boards- lotsa good peeps (lotsa dolts too, unfortunately, like anywhere!).

Here's hoping you have some decent healthcare happening, and have regular correspondence with doctors, RN's, social workers, advocates, etc.

Don't mean to be overly familiar, but, as another poster said, please do keep this board up to date on any progress (or otherwise)- gather any good or strength from where ever you can get it, and hang on to it.

All the best...

Think about this - I don't know GTRM personally, but judging from all that do, she's got the soul and heart like no other.  So, how fitting it is, that her board name matches up with one of the great moments in Stones history - the outro on EOMS version of Tumbling Dice is awesome, but the one from Ladies and Gents is even better.  While the band is jamming to that riff in B (C on L&G), Mick's saying to us, everybody needs somebody sometimeee... oozing soul, and giving us another unforgettable tingle... so if GTRM, the woman, has touched someone in the way Tumbling Dice has, and I'm sure she has, God bless her!

GotToRollMe, how goes the struggle? (I don't mean to be presumptuous here, being new and all, but your situation moves me- maybe for personal or selfish reasons...dunno)

Have you got your friends and mates to put up signs on their vehicles yet?

Good work Gazza and Starbuck getting the word out on other Stones boards; any other music boards worth a shot? I'm thinking of a couple Springsteen boards- lotsa good peeps (lotsa dolts too, unfortunately, like anywhere!).

Here's hoping you have some decent healthcare happening, and have regular correspondence with doctors, RN's, social workers, advocates, etc.

Don't mean to be overly familiar, but, as another poster said, please do keep this board up to date on any progress (or otherwise)- gather any good or strength from where ever you can get it, and hang on to it.

All the best...




You're not being overly familiar at all, Mr. Yeats. I haven't had any signs put up, but I've received a lot of support on these boards, and some beautiful sentiments. I'm in the process of getting my healthcare together - wish me luck - and as far as something concrete, in addition to a couple of wonderful people offering their help, I've been offered an evaluation by specialists at the top donor hospital in my area, so I'm keeping the faith.

Think about this - I don't know GTRM personally, but judging from all that do, she's got the soul and heart like no other.  So, how fitting it is, that her board name matches up with one of the great moments in Stones history - the outro on EOMS version of Tumbling Dice is awesome, but the one from Ladies and Gents is even better.  While the band is jamming to that riff in B (C on L&G), Mick's saying to us, everybody needs somebody sometimeee... oozing soul, and giving us another unforgettable tingle... so if GTRM, the woman, has touched someone in the way Tumbling Dice has, and I'm sure she has, God bless her!


Throwaway, I was feeling pretty beat up today, but you just made my day. Thanks to you, and to all the other good, good people on this board.

Don't thank me - thank Keith for that riff!  But really, it's a shame disputes even exist on this board, and it shouldn't take much to realize that we're all human behind our avatars and "JOEY?" pictures...

Thanks to you all. Just reading your posts brings my spirits up. Here's the latest:

It went very well yesterday at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx. They have an entire floor specifically for helping people with liver disease, and they do organ transplants as well. I saw a doctor and was evaluated. They did bloodwork and I have an appointment to go back in a few weeks. I have to bring all my test results from my primary care doctor, as well as the hospital in Manhattan where I had a battery of tests last summer. The doctors, nurses, and aides were all non-judgmental and genuinely dedicated to their work. When I mentioned that my memory was failing a bit, they even gave me a date book to write my appointments in.

While waiting for my bloodwork, I just happened to run into a post-transplant woman who was visiting. She looked great. You'd never know she was ever a transplant patient, and she now works as a counselor for people with Hepatitis and other liver diseases. She told me she went to Florida and stayed with friends while awaiting her transplant, and within two weeks had a donor and a transplant. She said she didn't even have time to get scared, things moved so quickly. The tri-state area here is so densely populated, it makes it very hard to get a donor, but if I can stay with someone who lives in a less crowded area, my chances are much better. I'm thinking about it seriously. If I can make sure my mom will be looked after, I'm going to do it. But first I'm going back to this hospital for a few tests and get on all the local donor lists. This post-transplant woman told me that I can't let the doctors make all the decisions for me, and that basically my life is in my own hands. Just running into her and talking with her gave me an enormous amount of hope.

If it weren't for LadyJane encouraging me, Gazza helping me to get my plea posted on various boards, and then Lynn from Shidoobee getting this evaluation for me, none of this would have happened. I'm so grateful for the friends I have, and for the new friends I'm making. You are all helping me in various ways. Every kind word and expression of concern means more than you'll ever know.

Mary I am so happy to see you have gone through this evaluation and making plans to temporarily move to a better locale. I am so glad that you got to talk to a trailblazer and learned how to work it are getting registered and hope you can get to a better less dense area where there are more donors and fewer patients.  I hope you can get this done soon!!!

Hang in there, kid - we're all rooting for you and will do anything we can to help you get well again.

Now ... look at today's header video.

You and I were a few yards away from where it was shot.

And in a year or two we WILL be there again.

YAY! I am absolutely elated to hear all of your great news Mary.  There is a solution for you.  You are moving towards that now.  Good job!  This community of wonderful rock fans will not stand for anything other than you fully regaining your health.  Period.   Now you have a mountain of support from this message board alone.  Fuck you Gazza, Will ya?

Keep walking toward the love and the light.  This world NEEDS you.  You are a very special person.  I know that by reading this message board and from all the kind emails you've sent me over the years.  You are a true GEM.  And you will be able to help others with your wisdom and knowledge once you are well.  I can see you doing that in my mind.   Smiley

I believe in you and I know the power of this message board and of all the loving people who post here.  Like you, I have been so incredibly lucky to have met (and those who I haven't met yet) people who I adore and love.  You have ahold of all that love now from letting us share in your situation.  Thank you so much for allowing us to share in your time of need.  I am humbled by your strength and your graciousness.  Shine that light darlin'!  

You were feet away from Keef at this show?  Wow!  The love and energy I feel from just watching the 5:50 video of Keef and the boys playing JJF, well I feel 10 years younger than I did BEFORE I saw it.  And Keef is the MAN.  He's helping you.  Keep ahold of his energy.  And I too believe we all will see them again.  

I send you lots of love and support.  

with love and joy,
Martha

Worked the bars and side-shows
along the Twilight Zone
Only a crowd can make you feel so alone
And it really hit home
Booze and pills and powders
You have to choose your medicines
Well its another goodbye
To another good friend

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe7VrAr2ojE
..and we never will have to say you goodbye Mary.

Well after all is said and done
Gotta move while its still fun
But let me walk before they make me run

Watch my tail-lights fading
There aint a dry eye in the house
They're laughin' and singin' well they're dancin'
And drinkin' as I left town
I'm gonna find my way to Heaven
'cause I did my time in hell
I wasnt looking too good, but I was feeling real well

Well after all is said and done
I did alright an' had my fun
But I will walk before they make me run

I'm very glad to hear your so good news Mary. I tell you American Keith's sis:
We shall overcome.
Smiley
You will raise and shining once again.

If you haven't seen the movie, "Seven Pounds," I'd highly recommend it. It's amazing how you can save someone's life by becoming a donor:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0814314/

In the case of donating part of your liver (which regenerates), you'd be doing something low-risk (the person on the receiving end takes all the risk) and you'd literally save someone's life (mine, in this case). It makes a big difference between getting on a waiting list and bringing in your own donor.

I watched "Seven Pounds" on a plane somewhere when it first came out, it's an absolutely amazing movie, very thought-provoking, and I felt that the way in which it reworked old literary themes: "fate" in the form of accidents, redemption, atonement, love, how far  you would go for someone you truly love, was nothing short of brilliant. Last summer I watched it again with my daughter and immediately thought of you, Mary. The desperate need of someone you know/love for an organ makes you think in very surreal ways: I was driving home tonight and heard on the radio that the designer Alexander Mc Queen was today found dead and that the cause of death seems to be suicide. My immediate thought in a sort of surreal and detached way was "40 years old! Fuck! He could have at least donated his organs first, what a terrible waste". I know, it's an awful way of thinking, but there you go....And of course I feel deeply sorry for him and his loved ones....but that thought came only second.

A lot of potential new openings have sprung up for you since you went 'public' with this, and no doubt there will be more. On the law of averages, one of them will surely work out.

Things certainly aren't as bleak as they seemed a month ago.

I've asked Gazza to move the Brian, Superblow and Bit Torrent threads back up here. I felt kind of bad that they'd been moved to the "regular" area because I know they mean a lot to other board members, and I didn't want to monopolize the "important" topics at their expense.

I know Gazza and Voodoo only had my best interests at heart, and I'll always be grateful to them for giving my thread so much attention. You'll forever have a special place in my heart - but you already knew that. Smiley

There are 'important' threads, and then there are 'important' threads, and this is THE most important thread ever on this site IMO. The only way we want this to fall off the front page is when the volume of posts which have been congratulating you on your successful transplant start to wane.

Keep your spirits up, although I know its not easy. Things are less bleak than a month ago when you went public with your situation, but we won't (and can't) get complacent about this. The more people who can make a contribution or come up with an idea, then the more likely there will be an opening for you.

We can't get too complacent about this, folks. If anyone can offer some help or advice in getting Mary registered for treatment at a facility in states other than New York or New Jersey, it could well end up making a big difference.

I have been given more infomration today:

Hello Ms. C____,

Thank you so much for your interest in transplant.  Waitlist times for liver transplant vary from center to center.  The issue would be the average waitlist time at any center regardless of the area.  Your friend can look at average waitlist time by transplant center at


http://optn.transplant.hrsa.gov/latestData/stateData.asp?type=center and at the SRTR site http://www.ustransplant.org/csr/current/csrDefault.aspx



Choose your friend's state, and then look at statistics by transplant center and by organ.  However, please be advised that the wait time for any organ also has to do with the medical condition of the candidate, the medical condition of the other patients listed in that area and the blood types and other characteristics of the donors that become available.  Another key factor to consider is the rate of donation in a particular area.  So simply looking at geographic area may not necessarily mean that a candidate will be transplanted faster. 



I encourage you to review this page on organ allocation at www.transplantliving.org for further information.  Also, please see the MELD Brochure at unos.org;   http://www.unos.org/SharedContentDocuments/MELD_PELD(1).pdf



I hope this information has been helpful.  If you have further questions, please call the UNOS Patient Services Line at 888/894-6361. 



I hope that this information has been helpful.

Mary read above.  Also

sorry to deluge you with info but another email came in from the same lady:


You’re very welcome.  I hope this is helpful.  Your friend should also be aware that she can be listed at more than one transplant center (Multiple Listing).  She would have to be able to reach the other transplant centers in a timely manner should she be called for a transplant and she would need to be able to stay in that area for awhile, possibly both before and after transplant.  Ideally, she should also have support persons who could stay in the area with her.  


http://www.unos.org/PoliciesandBylaws2/policies/pdfs/policy_4.pdf



Please see policy sections 3.2.2 and 3.2.3 for more information.



Again, I hope this is helpful.

Yet another Email from Freda:

She needs to contact each program herself and request to be listed there.  Multiple Listing is done at the discretion of the individual program.  So they can refuse to list her.  They can also require that she do additional testing, or repeat testing that was already done.  Your friends insurance may not cover multiple listing, or they may not pay for duplicate testing.  Multiple Listing does not have to occur in another state.   For example, there are 15 transplant programs in NY State.  Your friend could list at all of them if she wanted to.  However, listing in a lot of programs in one area may not benefit her a great deal, since she would be competing in the same pool of organs.  She could list in areas where she has friends that she could stay with – for example she could list in DC where you are and in NY, or for that matter she could list in Hawaii J!!  Anyway, you get the idea. 



Most people who multiple list research the programs which have the shortest wait times and list there.  However, keep in mind.  Your friend has to be able to  travel to that center on a moments notice.  Livers are only viable for 12 to 18 hours.  The questions are 

(1)    Can you afford to get a flight someplace or to even travel by car within a couple of hours. 

(2)    If your friend has a complicated transplant and has to stay out of her area for several months

(3)    Does your friend have someone who can manage her responsibilities at home for a couple of months if necessary

(4)    Can your friend afford to travel back and forth as much as weekly for a while

(5)    Your friend will need a support person wherever she is.  Is there someone who can put their life on hold to be with her for as long as it takes, if she is out of her area



Also remember that transplant wait times are aggregates/averages, so while a center’s times may be excellent, this does not guarantee that your friend will be transplanted in the time mentioned on a website. 



It’s very easy to become excited by ‘the transplant’.  But you must carefully consider all that is involved in listing more than a few hours from home.

MARY~
I keep trying to send you a PM and it keeps not letting me!

I know you must be SUPER busy. 

If I can help you in any way please let me know. I think its going to be tough to get registered at multiple places. Freda was saying that some people have a social worker do this for them but I don't know how someone would hire someone to do that sort of work. I can ask her if you need help with that.

Please feel free talk to her directly she is with UNOS. Freda M. Wilkins [[email protected]]

She knows the process and can provide you with any info you need.

Aw, thanks Kilroy. I know there are other people like yourself on the board who have their own health concerns, and it means a lot that you're in my corner. However, I was trying to make a point - if there are any young (20-60 y.o.) people on this board who could help me, now would be the time to do so. The more time that goes by, the weaker I get. This is an operation where you'd be giving me a small part of yourself that will regenerate in three months. There have only been two known donor deaths in this country since 1996. The worst you're looking at is a few weeks of discomfort. I would cover all your travel and hotel espenses, as well as miscellaneous stuff.

Without my own personal donor, the odds of me getting one from a list are virtually nonexistent. Some of you have called me "brave." I am not brave - I am shit-scared that I'm going to die, and on top of that, leave my 88-year-old mother at the mercy of my heartless brother. It means the difference between having me here for her whenever she needs me, for as long as she lives, and spending her last years in a state-run nursing home and dying there alone. I've devoted this part of my life to making sure my mom is as happy as possible, all the time. She deserves it. If you ever met her, you'd know why.

This is a plea. There must be someone on this board who's healthy and fit enough to do this for me. I'm finding out that people are very weird when it comes to this sort of stuff. See, I'm the type of person who would do it in a heartbeat if the situation was reversed, and it's hard for me to imagine that there isn't ONE person on this board who will do it.

I guess it's just easier to post an R.I.P. thread.

People are wondering what state their own liver is in. I would bet. Plus it is a great mystery as to how you get evaluated
as a potential donor. Who does the testing, where, how long do you have to be out for, and how do you sign up.    That's what people need to know.  If we can give them that information it will be easier for people to know how to help.

It seems like the transplant team has to evaluate the donor. Do you have a ' transplant team' Mary yet?

here is the evaulation process  (testing )
http://www.livingdonorsonline.org/liver/liver4.htm
Criteria

"In the case of liver donation, there are specific health criteria for potential donors. The criteria depends on the transplant center, but here's a list of considerations:

No heart, renal, or liver problems or abnormalities.

No history of deep vein thrombosis or history of bleeding problems.

Negative for Hepatitis B and C and for HIV.

No history of diabetes.

No prior liver surgery.

No alcoholism or frequent and heavy alcohol intake.

No history of cancer.

No psychiatric illness under treatment.

Your height and weight compared to the recipient is "appropriate."

There may be an age limit. One center places it at 45, another at 60. Check with your transplant team.



It looks like Mayo Clinic in Arizona has a lot of experience with living donor transplant!

The first requisite is compatibility of blood group, which is essential.

If you want to become a donor for Mary you HAVE to be from the blood group

                       

                                                 
O +


which is statistically the least rare and most common blood group amongst the population. But I believe blood group O- would also be fine (although this one isn't a common one)

Both
O+ and O-
blood types can donate to someone who is O+.

37.4% of the US population are type O+ and 6.6% are O-, so thats 44%. If we can get someone in one of those two groups to be accepted as a donor, then we're in business.

In the next couple of days, a few of us are going to set up a Facebook group in order to cast the net further for a donor for Mary. When we do, we'll post the link here and on the other Stones message boards and ask everyone who has Facebook to join it and to invite everyone on THEIR friends list to do likewise. Hopefully by doing that we'll increase the chances of finding a donor and/or finding someone who can help get Mary registered at other transplant facilities.

Mary, I seriously wish I could do it for you, but I have no medical insurance and I cant afford to pay the medical bills, take time off work and not earn an income during the time it takes for the transplant and recovery. I hate to sound cheap but I am supporting 2 kids as a single parent, and none of us have insurance. Actually, we havent had insurance for 18 years (because of a pre-existing condition from when my son was born) we were denied coverage. If I was rich I would do it, but I'm not financially set at all, and if any medical attention is needed down the line, I'm sunk. My friend has cancer, and each treatment is over $65,000 and he's been getting treatments for almost a year. The bills are outrageous even with health insurance, he owes a fortune for all the meds, dr and hospital visits, tests and operations he has needed. It's a damn shame. We really need to reform health care in this country, but I bet Obama's plan will get rejected. I hope he succeeds and people like me will be able to afford it. Sorry Mary, I hope you understand. If someone could volunteer pay for all of it, I'll give it to you if we are a match. I just dont see how its possible the way things are for uninsured people such as myself and 40 million others in the same boat. It's so unfair, if we lived in Canada they would pay for everything for a minimal cost (I have a friend there and she says they pay $15.00 for a Dr. visit and thats it) but they often have to wait for an appointment. How much do you expect it will cost, over $100,000? Sorry Mary, I really feel bad bringing up money at a time when you dont care about that, but how can anyone volunteer without asking?

I believe all us who got a page are well available to do this and much more for Mary.
Its the mininum we may do for her. I will do the best I could to help Mary.
Has to find out the right person for her. Altogether we can make it. It'll works it pretty fine.  Smiley

Thanks, Bitch, for reminding me about this aspect.  Actually, my insurance will cover the surgery, and I'm also willing to replenish any lost wages, should the person have to take time off work with no pay (the recovery time is roughly 6 weeks). I'm also willing to pay for plane fare and incidentals should the donor live some distance away. I have a close friend who, although he cannot be a donor, is willing to help me financially. I know you're supporting two teenaged children as a single parent (with no insurance, to boot) so I wouldn't expect you to volunteer. I thank you for your post, though, and for reminding me to include this information.

Mary I am willing to donate if someone else can pay for it all! Good health but no money, but I'm lucky for the good health part anyway. It's got to be a super expensive operation, though! Clean lifestyle for me ~ I never took many illegal drugs (unless I was offered free lines but it's been a long time since that happened) never did heroin, tried freebasing only once (I knew it was highly addictive so I never did it again) only drink socially a few times a month, exercise at the gym 3x/week, vegetarian/healthy diet, I dont smoke (only an occasional a puff or 2), I'm not on any prescription drugs and overall I'm in excellent shape for my age! So I think I can do it, if you want to arrange for a Dr visit & lab tests, if someone will offer to pay for all of it (sorry about that part). The good news is Obama's health care plan passed and the insurance companys cant deny for pre-existing conditions, OR put a 'cap' on paying for medical costs. That should work out well for me but I dont think it goes into effect until 2014! We dont have that much time!

Wonderful offer and gesture, Ellen. Hope something can come out of it. Are you a compatible blood type?

The fact that the two of you live in the same state is a bonus too.

The facebook group has now been set up.

We would ask all of you who are Facebook members to join up, and those who dont to consider joining facebook and doing so.

The link is here - http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/group.php?gid=106457062716862  (the link only works if you're a FB member)




If you have a problem with the link a search will find the page - the group name is 'Please Help Our Friend Mary Find A Liver Donor'

Please get the word spread around some more by then inviting the rest of your facebook friends to join, and asking them to do the same to the people on THEIR list, if possible.

We would also ask you to post a message on the 'Whats on Your Mind?' and 'Write something about yourself' parts of your profile page alerting anyone who looks at your profile to this group and asking them to join up, and at least leave it there for a few days if you can.

Additionally, if the info can be posted on other boards too, that would be most helpful.

Thanks everyone.

Mary I am willing to donate if someone else can pay for it all! Good health but no money, but I'm lucky for the good health part anyway. It's got to be a super expensive operation, though! Clean lifestyle for me ~ I never took many illegal drugs (unless I was offered free lines but it's been a long time since that happened) never did heroin, tried freebasing only once (I knew it was highly addictive so I never did it again) only drink socially a few times a month, exercise at the gym 3x/week, vegetarian/healthy diet, I dont smoke (only an occasional a puff or 2), I'm not on any prescription drugs and overall I'm in excellent shape for my age! So I think I can do it, if you want to arrange for a Dr visit & lab tests, if someone will offer to pay for all of it (sorry about that part). The good news is Obama's health care plan passed and the insurance companys cant deny for pre-existing conditions, OR put a 'cap' on paying for medical costs. That should work out well for me but I dont think it goes into effect until 2014! We dont have that much time!


Bitch, I always knew you were a stand-up gal, but you just knocked my socks off. I've PM'ed you with some info about where I'm at now, and also links to information about the surgery. Whether we wind up sharing livers or not, you'll always be VERY special to me. Bless your Stones-lovin' heart!

Thanks to everyone who signed up so far.

We would continue to encourage people to do so and not be complacent.

Whilst it's great that Ellen (Bitch) has kindly offered her help, there's still no guarantee that any potential donor will definitely be accepted as there would be a series of tests and evaluations to go through. It's therefore essential that we have as many options for Mary to fall back on as we can possibly get, in the event of any setbacks.

Please note that signing up doesn't necesarily mean that you're making some kind of physical or personal commitment, it's more about making as many people as possible aware that our friend needs help and hopefully someone out there that YOU know will be in a position to do something.

Keep spreading the word, folks and ask your friends to do the same.

Jersey girls rock! Mary I sent you an email. Let me know when. And is anyone volunteering to help with the medical expenses? Maybe that should be an option on the Facebook link, requesting monetary donations to help fund this thing. Last time I went to a specialist they charged $800.00 for a five minute examination, so my biggest fear is that it's going to end up costing a fortune, creating deep debt that's impossible to get out of. Maybe somebody reading this works for an insurance company and they can advise us about getting coverage. Anyone reading this in the health insurance business? If I can get insurance coverage now, before we go ahead with this, that would be the best way to go. If we start doing anything before I get insurance coverage, than it becomes a pre-existing condition and it wont be covered. Can someone in the insurance/medical field explain how this works please? Thanks.

You guys are the BEST. It blows my mind that you've done this for me. Gazza, you've been my most ardent champion, and there have been times when you really picked me up when I was down. I'm really touched by the time and effiort you've put into this. All the people who helped get this together along with Gazza - LJ, SV, Jo, and Meg - I don't take a bit of this for granted and am grateful to all of you.

you should set up a pay pal account to solicit donations. you may not get thousands, but i'm sure every little bit helps. on second thought, scratch that...paypal charges too much.

It shouldn't be too long before I can set things up. I have to see my doctor and also go back to Montefiore next week, so I should know shortly thereafter.

I had a chat with Mary today. She is feeling hopeful after a trip to Montefiore Hospital yesterday. She met an Angel on the way. A man named Angel who might just be an angel. So we have some reasons to be hopeful. I am writing this post on Mary's behalf as she must save her strength. She is very grateful to each of you who has supported her and wished her well. Please keep praying and sending good thoughts and positive vibes.

God Bless you all for helping my Friend.

I'm going to post more in this thread when I have something concrete. For now, I can tell you that I met a man named Angel yesterday who turned out to be a real angel. He's offered to be a donor - he's 29, never done drugs, doesn't drink, and is in great health. He really wants to do this for me. A complete stranger wants to save my life - something my own brother wouldn't do.

However, I'm getting mixed information from the medical establishment regarding how sick I have to be before I can get a transplant - apparently the MELD score (Model for End-stage Liver Disease) is different in every state. In New York it's 25; in Florida it's 15. The liver expert doctor told me that blood type doesn't matter, while everywhere else I've researched says it's the first criterion in donor compatibility. And now he wants to put me on Interferon. I dunno.

Ellen, for all I know this man may not be compatible with me. I have to go back to the hospital this coming Friday, and I'm going to see what I can do about getting you guys tested. I will keep you posted as to all aspects. You've been very patient, and I appreciate it. I wish I had more news for you, but so far this is it. Fingers crossed, kid!

Your liver doctor is a hepatologist and not just a gastro right ???  that sucks about the issues with the MELD score, i was wondering about that...

If they are talking about putting you on interfuron you must still have hep-c, if you do a transplant and still have hep-c the new liver will get infected as well ... so im guessing you never treated for the hepatitis????  you can treat now but with the stage of your liver damage it will be rough... do you have any idea what genotype you are?  If you are type 2 or 3 the chances of clearing the hepatitis with the current treatment is about 80%... 

this is a good site for info about hep-c...http://www.janis7hepc.com/

and i just want to put it out there, if ANYONE has EVER used IV drugs GET TESTED ... NOW.... i got tested about 6 years ago because some people i know who were past IV drug users were all hep-c positive, i have stage 2 liver damage (stage 4 is cirrosis), if you don't know you have it, you cant try and get rid of it and if you drink with it, your liver damage can happen much quicker...

I cannot seem to locate the information on here this morning, but isn't Bernard Fowler on tour? If he is appearing near your town, make the effort to go see the gig and try to get his attention turned onto this website for help. It can't hurt to go and spread the word some. We never know who might be listening.

He's a liver specialist - a hepatologist. Montefiore has an entire wing dedicated to liver disease. I had to reschedule today's appointment tp early June. My hepatitis was already advanced to cirrhosis when I was diagnosed, keefchik, so at this stage of the game I think interferon would only make it feel a bit better and even lower my MELD - which, frankly, I don't need. I want to be healthy enough to live through surgery, so I'm really better off just letting it get a little worse until I get to a MELD of 15, when I'd be eligible for a transplant in Florida.

So far, the people whom I've talked to who've had it done have all had to take the bull by the horns and get things done despite their hepatologist's advice. Although I still have hepatitis, the new liver may not become infected. There are drugs available to help prevent reinfection.  Even if it does, hopefully I can get 20 years out of it, which is all I really need. I'm in my early 50's now.

I just want to enjoy this weekend and take a few days off from all this. I'm unbelievably exhausted from dealing with this every day. It's like a 24-hour-a-day job that never ends.

ok yea i was jus checking i figured with your sitch you would have to be seeing a hepa DR and not just a regular GI but you'd be surprised i have talked to people with advance liver disease and some are still just seeing a gastro...

AND YES you are RIGHT if you get a new liver, it will take a while for the hep to get it, and you could treat then with probably better results and be able to tolerate the treatment better than now.... and next year they are coming out with a protease inhibitor drug to be added to the standard treatment of interfuron & riba and the odds of clearing with this new drug added are WAY better than standard interfuron & riba alone...

So, do WHATEVER YOU CAN to get the old liver out and a new one in asap ... i wish you all the best, stay strong, drink lots of water, keep taking the milk thistle, and watch the diet, very low sodium/iron, super low fat, no refined sugars, etc, im sure you know i just cant shut the fuck up sorry lol... and ya get as much rest as possible

also, people can live for YEARS with cirrosis, dont give up hope, whatever you do...may the good lord shine a light on you, you have alot of people praying for you right now...

Thanks, keefchik. You're a good soul, and I appreciate the info.

And Happy Birthday to you too! All the coolest people were born in May (or so I've heard).   Grin

Just stoping by to add my 2 cents. My friend's boyfriend was treated using platelet transfusions, it helped him a great deal. His numbers were between 8-12 and unfortunately he did not qualify for the transplant, so this is a tricky situation. If the numbers are too high you dont qualify and if too low you dont qualify either. You've got to constantly be on top of it and take the bull by the horns. Sorry you have to go through this GTRM, and Keefchik you seem to have the right attitude!

i treated once about 5 years ago with interfuron and a drug call viramadine, it was a clinical trial, i decided to do it because the standard treatment of interfuron and riba only has about a 50% chance of working in most people who have hep-c unless you are genotype 2 or 3... they cant tell what type i am, had a million tests and they cant figure it out... anyway i did the trial because it was free and the viramadine was very similar to the ribavivarin but riba cause severe anemia in alot of people, they were testing the viramadine to see if it worked as well as the riba without the anemia... which it does not, clearance rate was only 30-40%. which is why it was never FDA approved, its fucking useless.

Anyway, i had a liver biopsy 6 years ago and just had another one this past December and my liver damage has actually improved a little bit, i think its maybe because im taking milk thistle and not drinking as much...plus I completely cut out fast food and i eat very little red meat and lots of organic foods.. and my doctor thinks i can wait for the FDA to approve the new protease inhibitor drug addition to the treatment, the odds of clearing with the added drug are WAY better than now and they think the treatment time might be shorter as well... standard treatment right now for type 2-3 is 6 months, for anyone else its a year... thats an injection of interfuron once a week (ya maybe since i got this from a needle i will get rid of it from a needle as well HAAAAAAA) and the riba pills twice a day...

ok thas my hep-c info for the day, i'll shut the fuck up now...

Nothing to report. I have to get the compatibility bloodwork done, then I just have to get a bit sicker until I'm eligible to get a transplant.

My Fellow Stones Fans,

This is not easy for me, but I'm at the point where I can't worry about being judged for something stupid I did almost 20 years ago.

I recently found out I have Hepatitis, and it's at the point now where I need to publicly solicit donors. If I can't find a compatible donor, chances are I'll have less than a year or two to live. I'm already on medication that is making me feel ill every day. The way a living donation works is they find a compatible donor (same blood type, body mass index, etc.) in good health and take a piece or "lobe" from their liver and transplant it. The liver actually regenerates and grows back to its original state within a few months.

They take the entire "bad" liver out of the recipient and replace it with this "lobe," and if I'm lucky my body won't reject it and I'd get to live a normal lifespan, albeit on regenerative drugs. I'd be ecstatic just to have another 10 years at this point. You see, I look after my mom, who is 88 years old. The thought of leaving her here alone is more than I can bear. Most of my family are gone, and the few who are left cannot care for her. I have no family I can solicit as donors either.

Last year, there were something like 6,500 transplants. There are currently 17,000 people on national waiting lists. I live in the New York area, so my chances of getting a compatible donor are slim to none. My blood type is O+. I'm asking everyone I know, because the more people who are aware of this, the better my chances are. Please don't turn this into a discussion thread. If you can help or know someone who can, PM me.

Here is a link explaining living liver donation:

http://www.liverfoundation.org/education/info/transplant/

http://www.livingdonorsonline.org/liver/liver.htm

Thanks to the mods for allowing me to make this public plea. If you know me personally, you know how hard it is for me to "go public" with this. I'm putting my faith in the Stones Community.



i wish you the best ... i had hep twice... serum of course as late seventies thats all that defined the two... serum and infectious. no "C" no type 1/2... they have made huge strides where before all there was were gamoglobun (sp) shots...

many have done things at a younger age without thinking twice about the outcome... heck as you know it's amazing some made it out alive... or living for the prgm.... either way hope it all works out for you.
good luck

Thanks, Chevy. When people like you come out and tell me you've had hep, it makes me feel like less of a pariah. Thanks for that, and for your good wishes. It's nice to see you back!

GTRM,

Hi darlin'.  I'm slowly getting back on the computer and now reading this thread.  I am always wishing you well and keeping you in my prayers.  I have a package to send your way and you are to listen to it loudly to get the full medicinal effect (or is it affect I can't ever get those words straight!) ! Smiley  I have strong positive feelings that all of your diligence is going to pay off.  Hang tough like your pal Keef.  All time is on your side.

I love you.

Your RO sister,
Marthapril

I haven't been able to start checking my three volunteers yet, Ellen. I'll let you know privately as soon as I do, and we'll set something up at your convenience. Whether we're a match or not, you'll always be a hero to me.

This was a little encouraging to read - especially since I'd been researching the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville two days ago: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100624/people_nm/us_allman

Good question.  I remember questions like that being asked when Mickey Mantle and Larry Hagman got their liver transplants in what seemed to be a short time period when others in their area and on the same list had been waiting for years in some cases.  The hospitals and organizations involved denied it at the time, but one has to wonder.

In a nutshell, Mary still needs a donor. And soon. Whilst some people were kind enough to offer help, for various reasons none so far have been compatible.

We can't stress highly enough that time isn't on our side here, so if anyone is reading this and has previously thought about offering to donate but had banked on someone else doing it, we'd ask you to now seriously consider doing so. A blood group compatible with O+ (ie, O+ or O-) is what she's looking for. That covers around 40% of the population of the US, so statistically the chances of a match SHOULD be reasonable. If you're accepted as a donor, all costs will be covered.

Mary my dear, I am praying very, very hard for you.  So sorry to be out of touch.   I have been sick as a dog since Labor Day weekend with a bad viral infection.  It's been stubborn and downright dreadful.  I haven't been on-line much at all.  I know you understand.  I hope the music I sent is giving you some peaceful moments. 

And bless you LJ and Gazza for all you are doing behind the scenes for our Mary. You are both saints.

love,
Martha

Hi Everyone.
Just a little update.
Mary has been hospitalized three times within the past month. She has known for some time that her chances of getting a liver in Florida are much better than NJ/NYC area.

She is out of the hospital and looking for a flight ASAP. If she can, she will leave tomorrow.

And now for the power of the Stones.
Our good friend Stonesdoug was at his High School Reunion several months ago and ran into an old friend who mentioned that he was a Liver Transplant survivor. Doug thought to mention Mary to him as he too had suffered from Hepatitis C.
Well, our angel Bob, offered to help. He feels he would like to give something back. he has been counseling Mary for months and has been a tremedous help to her.
He has agreed to put her up and set her up with his Doctors.

So today I am asking that we wish Mary well on her journey and thank Bob for his generosity to our beloved friend.

And once again, the power of the Stonesian bond amazes me.

Godspeed my Sister.

xoxo
LJ.

So pleased to hear this encouraging news.

For those who dont know, Florida has a lower MELD (Model for End Stage Liver Disease) score requirement than several other states, including New Jersey - which means that she has a chance of meeting the criteria for a transplant earlier than she would if she stayed at home.

There's been a hell of a lot of setbacks and red-tape getting in Mary's way over the last few months, but she's been a real fighter throughout (as has her mom) and we're hopeful that she'll have a positive outcome soon. Your best wishes, hopes and prayers for our dear friend would be appreciated.

A special thanks to Bob for all his help over the last few weeks and months and for his unselfish offer to reach out to someone that he's never even met. It's amazing what the Stones community can be capable of.

You're never out of my thoughts, Mary - and we all love you and are rooting for you.

Just spoke to Mary about an hour ago - she arrived in Fort Lauderdale, Fl. this afternoon and is in good spirits.

She could be down there for a few months before a donor becomes available (if, God willing, it does), so whilst things are finally moving in the right direction, its important to emphasise that even if she does get one, she's on a waiting list and this isn't going to be an overnight fix.  However, she's there at last, is being looked after by Bob, who is a very kind guy and has been through this ordeal himself, and the clinic where she'll be receiving specialist treatment is located nearby. Her mom is staying in New Jersey (she's 89, so it's a non starter for her to travel) and will be looked after by neighbours and close friends in Mary's absence.

She asked me to pass on her thanks to everyone for their love and best wishes.

Another update for everyone.

Mary is currently in the hospital in Florida undergoing testing by a liver transplant team. I spoke to her yesterday and she was in great spriits. The progress made in two short weeks in nothing short of miraculous. She does, however, get a bit lonely and depressed as she is so far away from home and she is too weak to access email and the Internet. Additionally her surgeon is concerned about her "lack of a support system" in Florida.

Here's how you can help. If you would like to send a note, card or SMALL package to Mary, please email, PM or contact me via Facebook. I will give you MY home address and forward all to Mary in Florida. I think this will really do her a world of good!

In closing, Mary asked me to PLEASE let each of you know that she misses the Board and is very very grateful for all of the support she has received!

Hopefully it won't be too long before GotToRollMe is posting again. 

xoxo

No worries, Gemmie. Any cards or letters would be appreciated.

Was talking to her last night and even though shes still in hospital, she was in much better form than when I last spoke to her a week ago.

Still a long, long way to go, but we can see a ray of light at the end of the tunnel, mostly thanks to Bob who's looking after her and the team at Broward Hospital.

I am OVERWHELMED by the response to my request to "send Mary some cheer".
The outpouring of love and support by all you has reaffirmed my faith in the human spirit.
We really are a family here.

Happy to report that Mary is about to be released from the Hospital and thus far as passed all preliminary tests.
She IS a candidate for a Transplant and has a found a Surgeon to perform the operation.
Mary continues to feel hopeful and I cannot tell you how long it has been since I have heard her laugh so much.

Keep sending prayers and good thoughts her way.

THANK YOU!

Still a long way to go, but she's in good form and hopeful. She sends her love and thanks to everyone for their kindness and good wishes.

I had a voicemail from Mary yesterday afternoon. Her voice sounded so much stronger and her spirit seems transformed. It was so nice to hear. I'm going to try to call her back today.

She has made a lot of progress toward the goal of partial liver transplant. There is so much paperwork and she had many medical tests. Such daunting things. Having to work so hard to qualify for major surgery, which in itself is anxiety making. She needs all the love and support she can get!

Please keep her in your thoughts. I honestly think all this support is having a positive effect on her prognosis.

There is simply nothing like having the Rocks Off lunatics in your corner.

Well said SV!!!! So glad she sounded stronger! I haven't talked to her since she's been discharged.
Cards and letters are starting to arrive; I will send the first batch early next week.
Again, if you want to send a greeting to Mary via snail mail, PM, email or contact me via Facebook.
Yes keefchik, LJ and Paula are one and the same. Wink

A little sad this a.m. as Mary had to be re-hospitalized earlier this week and she's still in.
She's in pretty good spirits though as she is feeling better and "looking forward to the tray with my Turkey
dinner".

She misses being with her Mother on the Holiday.

Considering what Mary and so many others are facing today, I am very grateful for the Blessings in my life.

Happy Thanksgiving.

xoxo

I haven't posted anything in nearly 2 weeks because there really wasn't much to report.
In that time Mary was released and re-admitted to the Hospital.

I just spoke with her and she sounds very very good today.
I think they have finally got her on the right medication necessary to keep her out of the hospital and
busy concentrating on getting all affairs in order (ie medical insurance) to get the Transplant.

She asked me to extend her deepest thanks to all who have sent cards, notes and packages.
You have each uplifted her and her only regret is that she hasn't been able to respond to everyone
individually.

So please keep praying and sending good thoughts Mary's way.
We still have a long way to go but there is hope.
And again, my offer stands to forward cards/notes to her.
Ya'll know how to reach me.

Hey Guys,
I just want to thank all of you who've sent your good wishes and prayers, especially Lady Jane, who's been so good as to pass them on to me. Thanks also to Gazza and Voodoo, and to Jostorm for the milk thistle. Thanks also to MRD8 for the discs, and to another board member who sent me a lovely gourmet fruit basket while I was in the hospital. Last but certainly not least, thanks to Sweet Virginia and Mr. Virginia for providing me with the means to access the internet - you guys blew me away with your generosity and kindness.
I only hope that when this ordeal is all over I can make it up to you, hopefully during the 2011 Tour!
Love,
Mary a/k/a GTRM a/k/a KW

I'll second that Gazza and thank YOU for everything you have done.
My heartfelt thanks to all who have sent cards, notes and packages to me to forward to Mary.
And to those who sent ME cards and money for help with postage, may God Bless you. You have renewed my faith in the inherent goodness of the human spirit.

Merry Christmas Mary!!!!!!!!!

We haven't had any updates other than Mary has been very very depressed and homesick.
But all of that changed today when she got word that she has been approved for THE INSURANCE
SHE NEEDS TO PAY FOR HER TRANSPLANT!!!!!!!!!!!!


This is HUGE and she is elated. Even though she passed all the preliminary tests and was deemed an acceptable candidate for a liver, the Surgeon could not proceed until she had insurance in place.

Now she can get on the lists for a new liver and all medications, exams, and the surgery will be PAID FOR!!!

Needless to say her spirits have been lifted to new heights! I just spoke with her and she is giddy with joy.

There is still a long way to go, but she's made tremendous progress in a relatively short period of time and I believe
it is because of all of the prayers, good thoughts and Stones karma being sent her way!!!!

God Bless You All!!!!!!

I feel so fortunate to have all you good people behind me. I know it's because of all the prayers and good vibes sent my way that I finally got the health benefits I so badly needed. Gazza and LadyJane - you both have gone above and beyond the call of duty. I couldn't have done it without you guys and the help of Stonesdoug and his old high school friend, Bob. I still have a long way to go, but I can finally see a dim light at the end of that tunnel - and it's New Jersey!

No real news to report other than Mary's keeping as well as can be expected and her health has been stable for the last few months. Health insurance and medication issues seem to be sorted out and really the next step as I understand it is to go through a couple of medical checks and then she'll be on a transplant list. Its amazing to think that it's now been six months since she went to Florida. Suffice to say that going there when she did has made a huge difference.

I was having a hard time processing this until Mary cleared it up for me:

a)it started IN her liver as opposed to spreading from somewhere else
b)it is confined to the liver.
b)it's a NATURAL progression of her disease.
c)it's non aggresive
d)the surgeon has advised her to "pack a bag; we'll call you anytime now".

So in this case, the dx of Cancer is actually going to help her get her transplant ASAP.
Bear in mind that if Mary wasn't in Florida and hadn't accomplished all she has during the past several months, this diagnosis would
NOT be good news.

Great work Mary.
Thanks to Bob, who took in a stranger and has been helping her every step of the way.
Thanks to everyone who has offered prayers, support and good vibes.

We can't stop now; we still have a ways to go but nearly miraculous progress has been made since September of 2010.

Correct. Its the diagnosis which increases her MELD score and puts her to around the top of the waiting list. The upside is that its a small spot and can be removed without any further complications. I hope Bob wont mind me saying it, but its pretty much how HE ended up getting a transplant as well.

Another plus is that she's been stable since moving to Florida - thanks to getting regular help from the clinic, thanks to having the right medication and thanks to Bob's selfless support - that she's in better shape going into this op than she would have been had it happened a year ago or had she stayed at home and waited for it while her health deteriorated.

The one thing I'm looking forward to doing to this page most in the next couple of months is removing this thread from the 'sticky' section , and doing so for all the right reasons.

As a great man once said...

As I understand it from speaking to her last night, she got a call yesterday saying that they had a liver for her, and were testing it to see if it was fully compatible. They should be able to confirm today whether or not this is the case. IF it is, the surgery may be later this evening.

Either way, it appears that she wont have to wait much longer. Our love & prayers are with you, Mary.

I'm afraid the liver was not a match.
Mary is being sent home. Sad
But this happens and she'll likely get another call before too long.
I know she'll be very disappointed.

Yes, it was a false alarm. The donor liver was in bad shape, and my doctor wants to wait til I can get a good one. I'm not disappointed, though - it was good practice for the real thing, which should be happening soon.

Thanks for all your good wishes and prayers. I'm lucky to have so many good people behind me.

Thanks, guys. Ya know, just in case things go south while I'm under the knife, I want to publicly thank those people who put themselves on the line and seriously offered to donate part of their livers back when I was still looking for a partial donor: sssoul, Glencar, Bitch, and especially Voodoo, who went above and beyond the call of duty. I will NEVER forget what you offered to do for me, and only hope I can return the favor in some way in the future. I love yuz.

Dont go fvcking saying just in case you go south Mary! Dont go there! It's hard yeah sure its really hard but you must imagine yourself going north, not south, OK? You dont have to worry about returning any favors, just get back to health and that is all we want from you, nothing more! OK maybe I want another concert with you, we never did make that MICK TAYLOR gig because he cancelled out on health issues, and so far he has yet to reschedule, I still have the ticket I hope you will be ready when he is!

Mary is on her way to the Hospital for another attempt at a match.
This will be the fourth potential liver to be tested for compatibility.
Let's all say a prayer that this will be the one and that she is cleared

There's a sort of irony that Mary may get a liver transplant on the same day that a new Stones song called 'No Spare Parts' gets premiered.

Hopefully you'll be luckier than Mick was! Much love xo

Tears of joy and relief here on hearing this a short time ago.

Huge thanks to Bob, to all the team at Broward and to everyone who has supported Mary over the last couple of traumatic years.

Here's hoping for a speedy recovery.

(and I look forward to 'un-stickying' this thread in the near future!)

Update: Just got off the phone with Mary's amazing 90 year old Mom, Betty who reports her daughter is doing well although in a lot of pain. She'll be in ICU for 3-4 days. We know that the donor was a 49 year old female who was a registered organ donor. No details of her passing but Mary has the option of calling the donors family when she is better. The Hospital was kind enough to allow Mary to stay on her cell phone with her beloved Mom until they were about to put her under anesthesia. As most of you know Betty cannot travel from New Jersey to Florida because of her age. Mary's final words before surgery "I love you Mom. I'm doing this for you and soon I'll be home to take care of you as you've taken care of me." If that doesn't warm your heart, I don't know what will.

You've got that right. I had the good fortune to speak to Mary today and she said the pain was so excruciating when she first woke up, she was praying for God to take her. But that was yesterday; today she was up and in a chair, started on fluids and her Doctor is very pleased. She says the ICU nurses are taking wonderful care of her and even allowed a phone in ICU so she could talk to her long distance loved ones. We didn't talk long; I told her everyone here was praying and sending good wishes and she was happy. It's been an amazing weekend!!! Thank you all so so much.

She's got her stage patter goin' down pretty good - I spoke to her last night for a couple of minutes and she said the same thing!

Quite an ordeal she's gone through, make no mistake, but it's well worth it.

Yep, I surprised GTRM with a visit today! I called ahead and found out the visiting hours, but I did not call Mary just in case she might of said no, dont come, not feeling strong enough, etc. As I headed into the room I noticed the bed was neatly made and there was no one in it. But I heard her voice and there she was sitting in the chair talking on the phone! Turns out the chair is a more comfortable position for her than the bed. She had a shocked look on her face and a big smile when she saw me! Ah it was great to see Mary and know the worst is behind her now. Her spirits are up and she is doing well under the circumstances. She is on the road to recovery now, and in alot of pain but the hospital is very clean, modern and organized, and the nurses and doctors are treating her right. She has the determination to get back to good health and live a fun life again. I told her I never gave up hope on her, not for a minute, and we WILL get to another concert together, yeah, we will hear THE ROLLING STONES play Tumbling Dice and Bitch one more time! She'll be all healed up in time for the 50 Year Anniversary Tour, and yeah, I never gave up on that idea either!

Thanks for the good wishes, guys!

Unfortunately, I've been a little under the weather lately. For anyone interested, this is the latest:

This past Monday, my bloodwork showed that my liver levels went way up. My doctor said it could be one of three things: 1) Rejection of the organ, 2) the Hepatitis-C virus coming back with a vengeance, or 3) my biliary duct could be either clogged or constricted. He was hoping it was 3, because that would be something he could fix with a stent (a small plastic tube which would expand the duct). The other two possibilities would have to be treated with medications and would be more problematic.

So that afternoon I had an ultrasound, and the next day I was admitted to the hospital for a biopsy and an MRI (not to detect cancer, but so the doc could  find out what we were dealing with). Well, lucky me, it turned out to be number 3, so he scheduled me for an Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), which meant they inserted an endoscope down my throat to my stomach and injected dye so they could see where the stricture was. Then they inserted a stent (sometimes they use a balloon to widen the duct, but they didn't have to in my case).  I was discharged on Thursday after my bloodwork showed that my levels were dropping.

I have to keep the stent in for six weeks, and then they're going to take it out. If the duct stays open on its own, I'll be okay, but if not, they'll have to put another one in. Then after another six weeks they'll do it again. If it doesn't take after three times, they'll have to reattach the duct straight to my small intestine with surgery.

Wish me luck and say a prayer, please. Thanks.

Sorry to hear of this but relieved that it's the least troublesome of the three scenarios.

No one said there would be no bumps in the road and you've done great thus far. So just buckle your seatbelt and we'll all
help you deal with the rough patches.

Much love to you friend.

Couple of updates:

First one I posted yesterday on Facebook: "I just wanted to update everyone. Mary's still having trouble with her Bile Duct and is back in the hospital for another stent. I haven't had too much contact with her lately and when Mary gets quiet it's because she's not feeling well and depressed. So please send some good thoughts and prayers her way."

Mary's caretaker Bob added the following: "Thanks Paula good suggestion-they did another precautionary Biopsy it is Not Rejection-they suspect that the Duct may be clogged so they are going in today to replace with another-worst case scenario if this one does not work-then they must do surgery to connect duct directlly Paula is Correct She is getting frustrated-I remind her daily that if this did not happen she would not be here-She is in the best of are Hands Dr Selvaggi reminds her that they are "married" even after she returns Home to Ma=she will remain His Patient"

Prayers and good vibes are greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you Paula for your update. I as I could knew Mary.. I've learnt, she 's a big example of courage and she's so strong.. inner strength. Yes is true she has to suffer again having to face all this on and on.. seem endless. But it must has an end soon I think.
She's fighting since 2 years to be healing one time for all. I hope it'll be quite speedy.

Sending her all my prayers and all my best wishes.. hang up girl.
Try to be strong more than you can..

OK I just got back from visiting GTRM inthe hospital today, she is going in for surgery tomorrow and your thoughts and prayers are appreciated. This is a serious operation which will require another long recooperation period. Mary's been through a lot with this, poor kid. I wish her a most favorable outcome, but its tricky. I'm worried but I know she'll pull through and hope all goes well for her.

For those of you who didn't see this update on Facebook:

Mary is going to need another surgery to correct her on-going bile duct problem. This is another major operation and the setback is taking a major toll on her emotions. She is weary and very depressed. I'm putting this out here so that we can use our collective energy to send her all the positive vibes and prayers we can muster!

I believe the surgery will take place today or tomorrow.

Hang in there my friend. If only I could send Keith Richards himself to your bedside to serenade you!

LJ.

I didn't see this post; I'm sorry. Glad to know when the surgery is.

I'm sure she was happy to see you Ellen; how nice of you to go!

We are all worried; but Mary has the inner strength of Keith Richards. If anyone can overcome all of these obstacles, she can!!

I hope that she is the last time for a surgical operation .. and I know that time must pass before Mary feels well again. She is always in my thoughts .. and if I could cross the ocean, I'd go to her and maybe I'll take keith for the fly to her place for her to hear her favorite song. My best wishes and prayers .. must return how she was  first and in full form

Sigh....I am so very sorry that she has another surgery to go through...Sad She's been on my mind a lot lately, and I will certainly pray for a successful procedure, a quick and COMPLETE recovery, and for peace and comfort at this time....I can't even begin to imagine how this is effecting her emotionally. Sad

Get well soon, Mary! We are all cheering for you!!

Not much to report.
I spoke to Mary's Mom (the INCREDIBLE Betty Scura) who did get to exchange
a few words with her via phone today.
Our girl is hanging in there and I know we are helping with our good vibes and prayers.
Thank you so much on behalf of Mary and her Mum.

A setback for sure, but let's keep our hopes up. She's in the right place while they look for a new organ. Hopefully it won't be too long before it becomes available.

Better to find out the replacement liver isn't suitable now than a year or two down the line.

I've been thinking of ways we can help Mary during this difficult time and thought I would encourage everyone to send her a card or note of encouragement. The address is:
Mary Scura
c/o Broward General Hospital
1600 S. Andrews Ave.
Ft Lauderdale FL 33316 USA
She is currently in ICU but the hospital tells me they will track her down if she is moved from the unit. If you would like to phone the facility before mailing to get her room number call 954-355-4400. A room number on the envelope is helpful to the hospital mailroom.

This is great, LJ and Bitch. Smiley I'll pick up a card tomorrow at the store. Mary doesn't know me from Adam, but I'm sure that won't really matter. Smiley She just needs to know that people are concerned, praying, and supportive.

No that was the room she has been in for the past 2 weeks, it's a private room and close to the nurses station. She has all of her stuff in it so I thought she would just go back to the same room, no?

For those of you not on Facebook, we have an update from Florida

__________________________________________________________

"Surgeon just called me 13 h of surgery-not finished yet liver done going to keep her in induced coma for a few days ans then finish sewing abdominal wall and staples"
___________________________________________________________

Obviously this was a more complicated surgery than the 1st transplant. The Doctor knew that going in.
It was his call to stop and give Mary's body a break and then finish in 3-4 days.
The liver is in place though.
Keep those prayers coming; she needs them.

Good news.
Surgery is over and Mary is in the Recovery Room.
Don't know much more than that other than "her vitals are good".
Thanks to all for your care, concern and prayers.

Mary had her third and hopefully final surgery this morning.
She is going to be in the Hospital for perhaps 2-3 months and most of that time will be spent in the Intensive Care Unit.
It will be a very very long road to recovery and all we can do is continue to pray and send good
wishes to our beloved friend.

Christ. That's a long haul. And to think that in late January she was ready to come home. Disappointing, but as long as she gets better thats the main thing.

Mary remains in Intensive Care in a fight with a very nasty opponent/infection. She is in critical condition but stable. The Doctors are doing everything they can to help her win this battle and have kept her heavily sedated so she is not suffering. So we focus all of our prayers and good wishes to our girl who is as tough and brave as anyone I have ever known.

I talk to her all the time and tell her to keep fighting. I encourage all of you to do the same.

I was just reading and deleting some old emails and PM's, and I saved one that GTRM sent to me on March 22, 2010 about her liver transplant. It's been over 2 years since she started going through all of this strife. I didnt realize so much time has gone by already. God be with her, and in this situation we have no choice. Actually the last words I spoke with Mary were 'it's in God's hands now" and ot truly is. I hope we get some news soon, I'm thinking of her a lot.

Mary started this thread on Jan 23, 2010 and that was after about two years of feeling poorly and maybe 3 months after the definitive diagnosis.

She has shown more tenacity and bravery than any individual I have ever known. She is like this guy  Are you fucking serious?.

Fight on my friend!!!! We're all in your corner for however long it takes.

An Irish Easter Blessing....
"May God bless you at Easter, and keep you all year through. May God give you all the faith you need, to make your dreams come true. May His love and wisdom always help, to guide you on your way. May His light shine down upon you now, to bless your Easter Day."

Still fighting; just like your hero Keith.
We are all holding your hand Mary.
Hoping that today is the day we get news that you've begun to turn
the corner.

I miss your voice my friend.

The good reports from Florida continue nearly each day. Fever has been gone for over a week, responsive and more alert than ever. Doctors are more optimistic than they have been during this hospitalization. Mary has a very long road ahead of her but she's proven she's a fighter and it's been proven to me that the power of prayer is mighty. Thanks to all for your support and love for our friend.

Bad news all around-the infections have kicked the hell out of Mary's Lungs.In 24 to 48 Hours I will have to go to Hospital to do a conference call with Dr Selvaggi and Betty Scura to have an intervention on how to let her go peacefully --I already suggested enough Dope to keep her Sedated and allow her to give up the ghost without pain.This really Sucks and is Not easy for me

I am lucky to have traded a few posts here with Mary before she went into the hospital.

I know her only from a handful of posts, but I can hardly describe how bad I feel.

This is so incredibly hard for so many people, I know. Sad She fought the fight and we "held her hand".....I can't imagine what this is doing to her family. Sad My prayers really go out to them, for the strength and love they will need in the coming days, weeks, months.....and for Mary--that her time will come peacefully.

Mary is the type of wonderful person whose soul reaches into your heart and makes you a better person having her in your life, her kindness, humor and just radiant goodness shines a light on all of us that had the absolute joy to call her our friend.. she will be always loved and eternally missed, but her goodness will stay with us always, as she has become a part of all hearts she has touched with her friendship..

Mary, you are beautiful, and we will miss you, my sweet friend.. <3

Well the last words we shared before her surgery were Its in Gods hands now and it appears God wants to take her home. So her time is almost up here on earth. There is a universal truth we all have to face whether we want to or not ~ everything has an ending, we all come to an end, endings are inevitable, we close the book, we say good-bye, we say it with sadness but Mary is moving on. Just because she is leaving and it hurts, there are some people who becoome a part of us, and will always be with us.

The last time I saw you dear Mary, we were standing outside of Lombardi's in NYC. SV and I wanted you to join us for lunch but you were just too tired and we'd only walked one block. That was nearly three years ago. I remember holding your face in my hands as the sun shone down upon you. Although your eyes were tired, your smile was warm and bright. Never did I imagine that would be the last time I'd see you. We had so many plans for your homecoming celebration and The Stones next Tour which you had no doubt would occur. Another time my dear; another place. May your journey home be peaceful. May you finally be free of the pain and suffering you so bravely endured. I will miss you terribly my Stones Sister and my heart will never be quite the same without you in my life.

LJ, I am praying for you also. I can't imagine how hard it is for you to lose this special friend. Sad And I must thank you, as well as Gazza, for being so diligent in keeping us up to date with Mary's situation and her needs. I know we did all we could on this end {sending cards, good wishes, encouragement, and especially prayers}, but I know we all must still feel pretty helpless. I know that God never makes mistakes, and that this is all a part of His plan for Mary, but humanly speaking, it is, and will be, very hard on those who are left behind on this earth...Sad

re: bobby J she is not in any pain... so thats something anyway... she still with us but not for long im afraid...

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE .... HEP C IS A SILENT KILLER... MARY HAD NO IDEA SHE HAD IT UNTIL SHE FOUND OUT SHE HAD CIRROSIS... GET TESTED!!!!!!!!!!  PLEASE....

she is the third person i know who has died from this in their early 50's.... i just turned 50... i am on treatment now for the hep and its working, my liver damage was no where near what mary's was also and if you get to it before cirrosis, it's reversible...

please ... EVERYONE ... get tested... you can get this from sharing needles, straws, razors, toothbrushes, and before 1996 blood transfusions... GET TESTED

This thread is becoming quite the testament to our girl.
I will see to it that many of these messages get to her Mom.
I think that is important.
Best of luck to you keefchik; you raise a good point about getting tested.

I like this one because Mary is not wearing her trademark sunglasses, which she is likely wearing right now in the Hospital. This was taken in Chicago in 2006 one day after the Stones show at Soldier Field.

Dinner at Morton's to celebrate Boomy's 21st Birthday!

ps. Mary HATES being photographed. So if she leaps from that Hospital bed to tear me a new one, so be it!!!

This is one from the Atlantic City 'no show' in 2006 - hence LJ's expression!

Mary, of course, remains defiant even in disappointment, hence the strategically placed finger.

if you come across one of just me and mary, let me know... i forgot i used to smoke. i also weighed a lot moe.
mary was a trooper that night, lj too.. they were both worried about me... took it in stride, sort of... most made it back to the make up gig... i've taken a lot for granted, and its times like this that remind me of that. i wish we could all be together like that again, laughing, not caring... life gets real, and real fast...  there's so much love here, and i took myself away from it... mary never stopped loving, even when i was a huge dipshit... she is so awesome...
i'm sorry...

I just saw the sad news on FB and I am crushed. I had so hoped that Mary would pull through and be ready to rock and roll in NYC for the tour. I never had the chance to meet her and I was looking forward to that day. Mary go easy and be at peace with Christ.

P, was that when you left the AC Bar and Grill to go to the Taj Mahal show??
Mary and I stayed behind with SV, TomL, jaggergirl and others.

It was you, Scope and Elaine, Nanky and Mindy and maybe glencar and the guy who posted as chevy sales? Not sure who else. That was a great night, despite the show being cancelled.

I think this is one of the pics you asked for.

I apologize for boring anyone with photos. Good memories help me deal with my sadness and Mary would enjoy this.

This is all very sad to hear.
Mary was the savior of the Chicago show for me when she let me drink off her bottle of Jack when I was so so ill.
Straightened me out good.

Wish I had a special bottle of Jack for her right now.

no need to ever give up... hope is eternal... love!
i'm capable of anything else right now, love and hope... everything i have done for the past 24 hours has been with mary first in my mind, all my thoughts... looking at the world this way, with her, i keep turning all thoughts to her...
it is beautiful... i do not see the people and things that trouble me, instead i see those i can help, and look at my problems as another oppurtunity to express the omnipitence of that love, that power that i call god... aka joey ramone when it needs a face... today it didn't need a face... it was just love and hope...

She was reticent but put her faith in The Stones and our Gazza.
Neither disappointed.

Mary went to Europe for the ABB Tour and it was a dream come true for her.
She was reticent but put her faith in The Stones and our Gazza.
Neither disappointed.

It's from Madrid. I think jostorm took it.

That little bar in a square just down from our hotel off Gran Via was our group's 'base' for a couple of days!

David Bell from Scotland in the background, wearing his well-worn and authentic European tour '73 t-shirt.

That really was an unforgettable trip in every way. I know Mary really had a great time (so much so, that she actually declared afterwards that she would gladly emigrate to Lisbon at some point in the future!)

The ray-bans I'm wearing were a belated birthday gift from you-know-who. She also brought me one of those Keith 'Too Tough To Die' t-shirts as well.  I still wear both. I think Mary was trying to re-create me in her own image!

I give you the latest which is the best Birthday gift I could ever hope to receive.
From Bob:
_____________________________________________________________
"Ok Update...............Mary remains critical but still fighting,After having 10 bronchoscopies in 7 days to clear infection in her lungs she has not had one in a week.Selvaggi "lungs are much better" also a week ago they put her on full time Dialysis to help remove fluids from her body and Lungs.It worked.She looks much better.It will continue for awhile before jump starting her own kidneys again....Selvaggi called for consent to begin skin-graft surgery on her abdomen Friday (like a burn victim)Three or 4 will be required.So what does this mean ? I asked him point blankly. "I presume that you would not be planning graft surgery for a patient that is in imminent danger of dying (like she was 2 weeks ago) ?" Selvaggi "That would be correct"
So special prayers/energy on Friday/(anethesia/surgery)
The woman continues to fight.:"
______________________________________________________________

Hang in there Mary. I'll be down to visit you in about two weeks.

We have a good report after Mary's first skin graft surgery. She is an inspiration!!!

From Bob's Facebook:

"Dr Selvaggi called 2 hours ago she is back in ICU and according to the Good Doctor "doing well"
as you all know there is always a concern when receiving full anesthesia no problem for Mary she did receive Platelets and Blood for Surgery-Betty got to talk "at" her for 20 minutes yesterday-Nurses were sure mary heard part of it before dozing off-Betty pleased-She will be out of it today but we will try another call this weekend--whatever you ALL are doing...........it's seems to be working-I read all your comments to Betty the other day...she was extremely uplifted"

I was really upset when I read that post that she was being called home, I couldn't post in this thread for a while. I'm so happy for good news. We have never met but I will never forget last November. About 5 days after my birthday Mary started a birthday thread for me. That really meant a lot to me!

I'm flying to South Florida on Tuesday for a few days of RnR in the Sun and my first stop will be Broward General to visit Mary.
The news remains good!!! I spoke to Bob this morning and he reports that she is more alert than EVER and looks better than she has YET! She shakes her head for yes and no and is attempting to talk. He explained to her that she has a tube which prevents her from speaking just yet. She's squeezing his hand; and smiles and frowns in response as well.  The Doctor continues to gradually reduce her sedation/pain medications.

I never envisioned our reunion would be under these circumstances but I'm so looking forward to seeing her and holding her hand and telling her how so many people have been praying for her recovery. I will mention as many names as I can; in fact I'm making a list to read to her!!

Mary has been told I'm coming so this should be a very special, albeit emotional, visit. Keep the prayers and good vibes coming. She needs them and I could use a couple of prayers as well.

I wonder if they will allow a photo of Keith Richards to be hung near her bed???!!!!!

"Looks relatively good all things considered. She recognized me & was obvlously frustrated that she cant talk. I had to wear a gown & gloves but no mask. I held her hand & stroked her hair. Got her to smile a few times & when I left I told her I loved her, she mouthed I love you too. No words to describe that moment! Waiting now to meet the Surgeon. I mentioned many names of all I could think of & got many smiles. The staff here is wonderful!  I will cry later.xoxo"

My Fellow Stones Fans,

This is not easy for me, but I'm at the point where I can't worry about being judged for something stupid I did almost 20 years ago.

I recently found out I have Hepatitis, and it's at the point now where I need to publicly solicit donors. If I can't find a compatible donor, chances are I'll have less than a year or two to live. I'm already on medication that is making me feel ill every day. The way a living donation works is they find a compatible donor (same blood type, body mass index, etc.) in good health and take a piece or "lobe" from their liver and transplant it. The liver actually regenerates and grows back to its original state within a few months.

They take the entire "bad" liver out of the recipient and replace it with this "lobe," and if I'm lucky my body won't reject it and I'd get to live a normal lifespan, albeit on regenerative drugs. I'd be ecstatic just to have another 10 years at this point. You see, I look after my mom, who is 88 years old. The thought of leaving her here alone is more than I can bear. Most of my family are gone, and the few who are left cannot care for her. I have no family I can solicit as donors either.

Last year, there were something like 6,500 transplants. There are currently 17,000 people on national waiting lists. I live in the New York area, so my chances of getting a compatible donor are slim to none. My blood type is O+. I'm asking everyone I know, because the more people who are aware of this, the better my chances are. Please don't turn this into a discussion thread. If you can help or know someone who can, PM me.

Here is a link explaining living liver donation:

http://www.liverfoundation.org/education/info/transplant/

http://www.livingdonorsonline.org/liver/liver.htm

Thanks to the mods for allowing me to make this public plea. If you know me personally, you know how hard it is for me to "go public" with this. I'm putting my faith in the Stones Community.




I hope you find what you need... having had history going back a bit further nam' gave us a generation of hep (along with a proliferation in methadone clinics via the nixon administration) from a certain powder that exploded during that generation. I have had hep twice 72 and 77 (decades before there was a hep C diagnosis it was either serum or infectious with the later being the lesser of 2 evils) so not much I can do but hope you come through this.
No one can judge us as we all have pasts some come back to haunt us, while others never let go. But people change thats a fact.

Nice to see you back, chevy.

I'm back from Florida  and because of a bad cold and cough I was unable to return to the Hospital to see Mary. The ICU staff would not
permit me to visit. As you can imagine I was very disappointed. But I have even more good news. As of last Wednesday the staff now lifts Mary out of bed and into a special chair for a couple of hours each day!!! This is the first time she has been out of bed in three months!!! I believe she is now fully aware of how long she was "out" and it's naturally overwhelming to her. Add to that she's still on a ventilator and unable to speak, and you can imagine her fear and frustration. Continued prayers and good wishes remain our top priority.

Mary's lead Doctor is my hero and the staff in the ICU is amazing. Very kind and very nuturing. Broward General Hospital is top notch and aces in my book.

That's really incredible news, Paula! Just unbelieveable.  Grin A few weeks ago, I would have never thought we would hear anything that encouraging.  Cool I'm really sorry you didn't get to see Mary again---bummer!--and I know Mary felt the same way, but how cool that you got to see her at all. Smiley Don't worry---the prayers will keep coming! Smiley

Theyve done a remarkable job to beat that lung infection and Mary's now at a stage where she's lifted out into a chair on a daily basis if she's feeling up to it. She's been able to whisper a couple of things to the nurses (mostly 'I wanna go home!'), although obviously with the tracheoctomy (sp) she's not really able to speak properly as yet.

When you consider that she had the second liver transplant on 16th March and was in an induced coma afterwards, thats a long period to be out.  As Paula says, its quite overwhelming for her to find out that she's lost that much time and while its quite remarkable in many ways that she's survived what she had to go through, she has a LONG recovery and rehabilitation period ahead, which must be quite a depressing prospect for her.

So, after speaking to Bob last night, we'd really like to ask all of you to try and help keep her spirits up by sending her a card or something, especially now that she's lucid enough to appreciate it.

Any cards or letters should be sent to :

Mary Scura
ICU Bed 13
Broward General Hospital
1600 South Andrews Avenue
Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316
USA

Today's update from Bob :

Yesterday Mary was Moved from ICU to RCU-in Hospital parlance they refer to it as Stepdown. (from ICU). It is a good thing.She has a very long way to go

Really didn't think about 5-6 weeks ago we'd ever get to read this.

When I had the chance to speak to Dr Selvaggi he explained that RCU was a Respiratory Care Unit; where they would really get to work on strengthening Mary's lungs and get her off that ventilator once and for all.

This is all amazingly good news.

The RCU and ICU are literally next door to each other.
I'm sure cards sent will be re-directed especially since the staff knows Mary so well.

All future cards should be mailed to
RCU Unit.

Mary had a minor setback over the weekend; due to a fever she was transferred back to ICU. She's also had some emotional issues (Who wouldn't given all she's been through) that are making her a bit uncooperative with the therapists. But yesterday we got word from Bob that Mary worked with the Respiratory therapist which entailed swallowing small ice cubes as a prep for eating soft foods. Her fever is down.

This is a very critical stage in her recovery so your prayers and good vibes are needed now more than ever.

Thanks everyone.

Good news to report. Mary's attitude has improved and she is cooperating. She has asked for her cell phone and Bob is bringing it to her. Whether or not she'll make any calls remains to be seen as she's still not able to speak; but she may try to text!!! Respiratory Therapy has begun to take her Breathing tube out for extended periods of time to allow her to swallow ice chips to establish throat control. Hopefully it won't be too long before she can eat and then speak clearly. Good, steady progress, like an Olympic champion!!! Prayers and good thoughts much appreciated!!!!

Another gold medal moment yesterday!!!!

Betty called me at the office to tell me her phone rang and when she picked it up she heard a voice say "Mom? It's me".

Yep. Mary is now talking! With the help of a special tube (she is still trached) and the good work she has done with the Respiratory Therapists, she can talk. Her Mother said she was very clear headed and sounded just like her old self.

Mom and daughter had a nice long chat after nearly 6 months.

And it gets better. Bob just called to tell me he had a great visit with Mary today.
She is now eating!!!! Soft foods to start but after 6 months, I'm sure custard and jello taste like filet mignon.
Her spirits have never been better and she is completely clear minded. Today she wanted to know everything that has happened to her during this hospitalization.

Here's a funny story. The Doctor put a new tube in her throat today to help her to speak more clearly. He said "Okay Mary say something."
Mary replies: "Something".
Doctor: "Say something else".
Mary: "Fuck You".

lmao...she's back!!!!!!!!!!!  Cool  Cool  Cool

I TALKED TO MY MARY!!!!! For the first time since she's been in the hospital I talked to my beloved friend. Not for too long; she's not feeling very good today; says her tummy and back hurt and that she's a little short of breath. Also said they got her up to walk today but that she wasn't able to take any steps. She had a little trouble hearing me but she told me she does remember me being there to visit. She sounded pretty clear and admitted "I think they are a little mad at me; they are trying to push me to do more, but you know me. I don't like to be pushed". I told her that she had to work hard to get home to Betty and that I knew she could do it. She replied "I think I"ll make it home". And then she asked me "So how have you been kid?" I told her I was fine and I just want her to get better. And then it was time to hang up. Only a few minutes but the BEST FEW MINUTES ON THE PHONE I'VE HAD IN MONTHS!!!!

Just read an update on Facebook that Mary is being moved from RCU (Respiratory Care Unit) to a regular floor!!!!
Now she'll begin intensive Physical Therapy as she is breathing completely on her own and eating although she is still getting nutritional supplements.

Stones in Paris rehearsing.
Mary in extensive PT.
Coincidence???
I think not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Critical time for Mary; Discharge planners are looking at Rehab faciliites but she's got to be able to at least walk with a walker. She's just not there yet and needs to push herself harder than ever. Also still having trouble keeping food down which I think may be causing her to be weak. If they can find a Rehab facility in New Jersey, that may be where she's headed. Her Mom is so thrilled at that prospect, but Mary has work to do. She needs our prayers and good thoughts now more than ever. Come on kid; you've come so far and there is light at the end of the tunnel. And that light is coming from HOME.

Oh, yes! Mary, this is what you have been working towards---going home! I know it's been hard---that is an understatement! I know it's been BRUTAL....but, from what I hear from Paula, you are a FIGHTER, and even though you are in a weakened condition, we must implore that you work even harder---and we will pray you right back to N.J.!

Finally - after six long months - today I got to speak to my friend again.

To say I'm overjoyed to have got the chance to do so would be a serious understatement, because for several months I never thought it would ever happen.

She still has a lot of rehab work ahead of her (she basically is having to learn how to walk again) and whilst she still has good and bad days (yesterday wasnt too good), today she was in good spirits.

Oh, and she's now aware that a certain English rock n roll band may be playing across the river from where she lives before the end of the year. Hopefully that'll get her motivated even more!

I am very happy to report that Mary has begun to walk with the help of a walker.
She phoned me this morning to tell me about her progress. She sounds healthier and more energetic than she has in years. She is cooperating with PT and OT and looking forward to Going Home.

She told me she hasn't been online since January and she misses everyone very much. We even talked about The Stones and how much she'd like to see them again.

There is no doubt in my mind that she'll be back here with us in the not too distant future.

Way to go Mary!!!!!

I am amazed this day is here.  Mary is amazing. I know she realizes how many were concerned (including myself) over her... and kept up to date on the things going on. Everyone kept pulling for her, I know she realizes how many she touched.

Lina told me all along that Mary is astonishing and that she had an intuition Mary was going to make it out of this and she was right.


Bless Lina, and most importantly... bless Mary! What an amazing woman.

I truly believe that the prayers, good thoughts and postive mojo by all
of us played a large part in Mary's miraculous recovery.
If she had internet access I know she would thank each of you for never
giving up on her.
She still has some work ahead of her but at least she can carry on with her recovery
at HOME.
Great Header Voo.

xoxo

I've to say, never seen an header more touching than this. Smiley She made me still believe in miracles. and YES .. she at home. Finally after all this time, she's back.
LJ, Ian, SCL.. and others are right to say that was all the prayers, the good vibes.. the total support for her to dont give up never and never.. and she is back to us.
Thank you Voodoo for this fanstastic pic Wink

Again a bit f work, Mary and you'll be alright, all right for ever.

Trust Mary to time her flight home just after I clear off on a week's holiday to Rome.

Anyway, I was out with FabioHotStuff on Friday and visited him and his lovely wife Rosalba for dinner on Saturday, so you were very much in our thoughts as you can see.....we even donned your trademark ray-bans for the occasion...

Just exchanged a few texts with Mary.
She's in the Hospital in Jersey but being released today.
Told her about the Fabio/Gazza header.
She was thrilled and promises to "call cable the minute I get home today".
I expect she'll be posting very soon.

I've followed this thread from the start, and want to throw in my two cents by saying how glad and proud I am that a plain ol' Rock n' Roll chick cheated death (I've known a few who didn't). Not to mention that dirty bitch "Sandy".

Post when you can, GTRM. We'll talk shit about the Voidoids, Thunders, NYC Rn'R, etc. And those Stones dudes.

All the best to you and your ma. You bloody well deserve it.

While we are all happy Mary is back in New Jersey she hasn't posted since October.
I'm afraid she's just not feeling very well and hasn't bounced back like we had hoped.
I keep in touch as best as I can. She's sick of being sick and that leaves her very depressed.

Please continue to send her your prayers and good thoughts.

Thanks

LJ.

Hope you'd a great Christmas yesterday. A huge hug and knowing you're getting every day always a bit better, I think is a big step by you. Nobody has come through all what you was in. Stronger persons just can face it as you are. Smiley But not put yourself never down. Smiley See ya soon back!

Hey guys,

I just read the posts in this thread from the months of May - September of 2012. It really helped me to remember what happened and when. I forget so much of this year and have relied on Paula, Gary and Bob to fill in some of the blanks.

Paula, thank you so much for keeping eveyone up to date. Your posts helped me to recall so much. I remember watching the Olympics when I was in RCU, and also that brief conversation with my Italian Genius Doctor when he tried the trache thing on me. I will always be grateful to that man. When other doctors were telling him, "You're crazy, let her die," he would not give up. He treated me like I was his very own flesh and blood, and he saved my life over and over.

You guys have no idea how heartwarming it was to read each and every one of your posts today. What a rollercoaster ride we've all been on. I have to admit, the past couple of months have been rough, and sciatica is hindering my physical therapy, but when I think about the enormity of what I've been through I'm just glad to be alive.

As I said to Paula the other night on the phone, "After the Apocalypse there will be only Keith and me. We shall start a race of superhumans!"  Grin

Thank you ALL for your love and support. It really means a lot to me. I love yuz.

Mary a/k/a GotToRollMe a/k/a Keithwoman!

I talked to Mary on the phone again yesterday and it was hard to understand her because she was crying so much...it seems her replacement hip is infected and she is in agony, she needs an operation for a torn miniscus(sp?) in her knee but they can't do it till her hip gets better.

It's heartbreaking to talk to her, isn't it??

I don't know what to say anymore to even attempt to comfort her.

She needs to have the hip replacement and repair of the torn meniscus in her knee. Both are relatively easy and will relieve much of the pain that has hindered her rehab. The problem is she has a fungal infection in the hip joint that is causing tremendous pain.

She's bedridden again and undergoing "washouts" of the hip area to try to clear the infection.

Needless to say she is at her wit's end.  Cry

Posted this on Facebook earlier today:

After a harrowing few days, just got a call from Betty to inform me that Mary has been transferred to a Rehab Facility in Ft Lauderdale for two weeks of therapy. Upon completion she is cleared to return to New Jersey. Her liver is in good shape; therefore, the Transplant Team feels her hip and knee surgeries should be done in New Jersey. Walking remains nearly impossible and excrutiatingly painful. And wouldn't you know there was a miscommunication with the Pharmacy resulting in Mary being without ANY pain meds from the time of her Hospital discharge yesterday afternoon until 9:30 this morning. Looking to a bright side, her liver is good and she now knows about her orthopedic problems. This is more info than she had three weeks ago. Phone break. That was Mary. Sounds much better. "Nothing ever goes easy for me kid. Not sure I'm up for all of this but I'm takin it a day at a time". She's braver and stronger than I could ever be.

Wow, yeah....she's about the strongest woman I've ever encountered! That's really great news about her liver Smiley But I do hate that she has to endure hip AND knee surgeries. Sad My husband had knee replacement surgery almost 2 months ago----just a horrendous ordeal. He'll finally be going back to work on Feb. 11. I hope Mary's eventual surgeries go smoothly, and that she recovers quickly. Thanks for updating us, Paula. Smiley

Today I visited Mary at the nursing home in Ft Lauderdale. It's a good thing that she cant move around because most of the patients are there for serious reasons and its not good, I saw some really ugly shit. At least in Mary's case her current problems are not life threatening. But her state of mind is weakened considerably after all she has been through and she doesnt feel like she has the strength to go on. Actually she does not want to get up and do the rehab because it hurts so bad. I talked to her for a while and deep down inside she knows she has to somehow gather up the strength to get through the terrible discomfort and complete the therapy. Traveling back to NJ poses serious fears of pain but until she gets back she cant get to the next step which is the hip replcement. So she has no choice because otherwise she'll just rot away and die in the nursing home. Oh I feel so badly for her. I tried to cheer her up but thats not easy. She was very happy to see me and I'll go back again on Friday. She has no computer there so no Rocks Off. I told her I would post this and she said yes, tell everyone to pray for the strength to go on. On a positive note, she looks better than the last time I saw her before the transplant, and thankfully that worked out well for her.  If you want to send her a card, flowers, etc its:

Today I went back to visit Mary again. She needs to be pushed, and I gave her a some help to get moving in the right direction. She is so depressed and I dont blame her after all shes been through. BUT SHE HAS TO PUSH HERSELF. She doesnt belong in this nursing home, its the last place people go before dying. I told her to FOCUS, GET THROUGH THE THERAPY AND TRANSFER OUT OF THERE!   If anyone can call or text her, or mail her something, she NEEDS TO KNOW we dont want her to give up!  Nobody should have to endure all this pain and suffering, its just not fair but life isnt fair. MARY needs our help so please send her your words of encouragement. Seriously, no joke. Its now or never. No email. Send me a PM if you want her phone number.

Thanks for the update Ellen. I'm glad we spoke on the phone Friday night.
My friends, the situation is dire. I really don't know what to do anymore.
I tried to phone Mary yesterday. She did pick up but I could hear her moaning as she
was bringing the phone to her mouth. All she said was "Not now. Can't talk". She sounded out
of breath and in great discomfort.

All she has to do is be able to get out of that bed and into a wheelchair.
If she can do that, she'll be sent home to Jersey and she can get her hip and knee repaired.
Her liver is fine!! That's the irony. Her liver is fine; it's the pain from her hip and knee that has driven
her to this deep depression. I know how pain can drive a person mad. It's horrible.

Time to try to call again.
Please pray for Mary and for those of us that are desperately trying to motivate her.

xoxo

Ellen. She did it today. Mary made it out of the bed, did the pivot and got into the wheelchair!!!!
I guess all of our good vibes and prayers sent the energy she needed.
She just asked me to look into a flight home at the end of the week.
She knows she'll be wheelchair bound but ONLY until she gets the hip replaced.
It's tough; she's in agony but she trying desperately to stay positive.

I didn't have the heart to tell her about Luxy. Wouldn't have been a good idea but I know Mary will be saddened.
I don't want that damned candle out again anytime soon.

Keep the prayers coming everyone.
A little ray of hope today. Just a little, but we all need it!!

Nothing new to report.
I continue to exchange texts with Mary on a daily basis.
Her mood isn't great but it's not as dire as it was.
They extended her Rehab in Florida for a couple of weeks.
I'm guessing she may be released to NJ next week.
When she complains I just try to empathize and encourage.
Thanks for your prayers and concern.
Mary loves Rocks Off.

xoxo

Yes, thank you for filling us in, Paula. I can tell from your post that this is really hard on you, too Sad And I'm sure it must be mentally exhausting, and discouraging for you at times too. Sad Prayers going out for you as you labor to keep in touch with Mary, and keep her spirits up....I know she's your good friend, and I'm sure there is nothing you'd rather do than do your best to help her, but I know this must be extremely difficult for you...Sad

Mary, we are all behind you here! We want nothing more than to see you home, recovering, gaining physical and mental strength for your upcoming surgeries, and then, coming back here to your beloved RO!! Smiley

Thank you Sioux. I really appreciate your kind words and your prayers. It's hard as a friend to sit on the sidelines and feel helpless.

That said. Our own Sweet Virginia paid Mary a surprise visit today as Jini is in Florida for a few days. I hope SV doesn't mind that I'm sharing a few lines from her email to me:
_________________________________
"We had a really good conversation. She is determined to get out of there next week. I told her I was so proud of her. We talked about the logistics of getting in her seat on the plane. She said she knows what she has to do, just shut up and bear the pain when she sits down so they don't decide she shouldn't fly.

We cried when I got there and when I left, and a couple of times in between, but generally, we had an upbeat visit. I made a spur-of-the-moment decision to tell her about Luxy. We both cried then, and Mary ended up saying "oh, my God, things could be worse for me than they are".  This was what I was hoping she would think, even though things are so hard for her.

We talked about you guys, the coma, me meeting Fabio in Rome, her trip to Lisbon, the Stones shows and who all was there. She said it made her feel so much better."

SV was so full of kindness and freindship with her visit to Mary also. It was touching read her email to you.
So encouraging and positive thoughtfull. I hope that all will be fine with her fly to NY.
I love her, but cannot texting her at all since I lived. And she doesnt answer at my phone calls.
I was sorry but I know how her situation is tough, after all she had to come through.
Love and light, prayers are always sent.

She has come so far already, she knows she cant give up now. She even talked about getting a Stones ticket sometime in the future! So we'll hope for the best!

Amen, gk. I've met some of my best friends right here. Kindred spirits; the Brothers and Sisters I never had until I discovered RO.

Happy to report that Mary is booked on a flight home to New Jersey on Monday afternoon.

She still has to face hip replacement surgery and repair of a tear in her knee but her liver is fine and she's very happy to be heading
home to her Mom.

I went to see Mary again and I gave her some candy to cheer her up. She was happy I was there to help her out with a few things. So, she is still in a lot of pain and the trip home isnt going to be easy, in fact it will be very hard for her. She is determined to get back to NJ so she can arrange for the hip operation, and until then she will remain at home. I dont know if her mother can take care of her until the operation so I'm still worried about her. But at least shes getting out of the nursing home and back to her familiar surroundings. She needs a wheelchair and she has someone to accompany her on the trip so she wont be going alone. Keeping fingers crossed for an easy flight with no delays. I can tell you this, Rocks Off has been keeping her going and she wanted me to post a thanks to everyone who has given her some inspiration to get back to the board and posting again!

I just spoke to our girl. She is elated to be going home tomorrow.
In her words "I never thought I'd make it out of here alive".
Mary is immensely grateful to everyone who has helped her, prayed for her, and kept her in their thoughts
Ellen your visits have been a Godsend. You pushed her and motivated her when no one else could.
Jini, your surprise visit did more for her than you'll ever know.
Gimmekeef, your help getting her a wheelchair is an amazing gesture of friendship.

The plane ride will be tough; she knows she'll be in excrutiating pain but she's up to the challenge.

Her flight departs Ft Lauderdale at 1:45 tomorrow.
Let's all keep her in our thoughts and prayers.
Safe travels my dear friend.

GImmekeef that would be awesome ~ she really needs a wheelchair of her own. Her plan is 'borrowing' the wheelchair from the airport that they use it to help her get around, and put that in the cab to take it home with her. I told her that plan is shaky. She said they wont notice but they must have these chairs numbered. I really dont know if she can pull that off. Seriously concerned.

Just a little fyi for those not on Facebook.

Mary just called me very upset. It seems one of the nurses WASHED her phone this morning. She was able to use a landline to call me and I did give her all her flight info, but she didn't need that at this time.

If she's out of touch for a couple of days you'll know why.

If you need to reach her, PM me for her Mom's home phone in New Jersey.

Thank you.

The flight home was very difficult for Mary. So much so that she needed to be taken to her Mom's in an ambulance. Difficulties only increased so yesterday (Friday) Mary was taken to the Hospital for further assessment. Her Mom is not physically capable of caring for her as it involves too much physical work. Betty/Mary's Doctor felt that a few days in the Hospital to regroup and get a new plan together was in order. That's where we are. Mary has no phone with her so texts and calls will not be received.

OG I was afraid her mother wouldnt be able to handle it. What hospital? Im back in NJ so I guess I might try to go see her here now. I hope they do the surgery soon. I feel so bad for her. Shes been through so much. She had to get out of where she was in FL so wherever she is now in NJ its one step closer to finishing up.

News is not good out of Jersey.

Mary is now in the ICU at Bayonne Hospital with a very high fever.

I spoke to Betty very briefly; she didn't want to stay on the phone in case the Doctors were trying to call. Poor thing was so upset. She said she'd call me this afternoon after she visits the Hospital.

At least our Mary is home and her Mother is visiting daily.

She's being transferred to a Hospital in Newark.
Betty said "University Hospital". Didn't get many details.
I'm sure it's somewhere better equipped to address Mary's complex
condition.

The Roller Coaster ride she never wanted to take continues.
She appreciates all of your concern. I know it.

Hard to believe that it's a year ago today that Mary had her second liver transplant - after which she was put in an induced coma from which she didnt come round for a few months. It was nothing short of a miracle that she got through that, and very frustrating now that with her liver function being fine she has had all this to go through.  Praying she's back on the road to recovery very soon.

Mary has been transferred to University Hospital in Newark. She's on a Medical Floor and can have visitors but no phone as of yet.
Very preliminary info as Mary's Mother was not notified of the transfer (she gave her consent but presumed they'd like her know when it was to take place) and took a cab to Bayonne Hospital this morning only to find an empty bed. Naturally she was very upset. You just don't do things like that to a 93 year old!!!!  Angry  Angry Hope to have more info tomorrow when Betty has established contact with the new team of physicians.

Apparently so my dear Bitch! Betty found her way to the "new" Hospital  yesterday but it was a long ride in a cab. She was very impressed with the Hospital and the staff. She met a new Doctor and basically they are doing a comprehensive assessment. They do have the records from all prior admissions including her stay in Florida.

Mary was awake, complaining (always a good sign) and even eating and drinking small amounts. Betty feels her daughter is in great hands! Yesterday was a good day.

Let's hope she's finally at a facility near home that can address her needs.

Mary was transferred back to Bayonne Hospital Friday. Apparently she developed an allergy to one of the medications that she takes because of the transplant. It required the Specialists at University Hospital to tackle the problem and they have it under control. This is much better for Betty as far as transporation goes; she was traveling an hour each way by cab to Newark. Mary's liver is good but the hip and pain in her leg remains bad. So bad that Mary is in a terrible state of depression. She does have a phone in her room but her Mom tells me she cannot reach it.

And she still has no cell phone. I wish that we could get her a new cell because even if she didn't respond, I know she'd benefit from text messages of encourgement. I'm going to work on that.

Mary has suffered for so long; it just breaks my heart. Her spirit is nearly broken and I cannot blame her.

I'll call Mary's mother and ask her who Marys cell phone provider is and maybe we can reactivate her old number, if she still wants it. Maybe someone has a spare phone to give her. I have a used blackberry that still works perfectly from Sprint. I can give it to her if she has Sprint as her carrier and activate it using her number. If she doesnt have Sprint than my phone wont work but maybe someone else here has an extra phone too. I'll find out and post it here.

Marys mom does not know who her cell carrier is. I told her to ask Mary on her next visit. She said Mary is not doing well, she is in a bad depressed mood, but she will ask Mary if she wants a cell phone. Hopefully Mary will say yes. She is having a very rough time of it and needs our support. Paula sent flowers. Someone gave Mary a baloon but she untied it and now its on the ceiling. The nurses were not amused but I am!

Not sure if the cell phone is a good idea at this point Ellen. Betty brought her cell phone to the Rehab facility yesterday and help it up for Mary to speak to me. It was heartbreaking. "Paula, Paula, I need your help. I need you now more than ever. I'm stuck in this place and I have to get out." I tried to calm her down but she was just too aggitated to talk to me in a calm tone. Poor thing has been through so much.

Even if she had a phone, if she's not even feeding herself, I doubt she'd be able to use the phone.

She has no strength in her hands and the phone would likely be dropped.

They are going to attempt to start Rehab therapy on Monday but in her current state of mind, I'm not sure Mary will cooperate.

I have spoken to another family member who is close to Betty and Mary and she is now going to attempt to get some definitive answers from the Doctors.

Clearly we have not been given all of the information. And her Mother needs an advocate as well. Someone to push for answers. Mary's decline since that plane ride home from Florida has never been fully explained to anyone. She's been in one hospital, transferred to Newark, transferred back to Bayonne and now transferred to a Rehab Facility in Jersey City, with talk that she'll be transferred again. WTF???? And a 92 year old woman, who has great trouble walking is taking cab rides every day. It's overwhelming; it's sad and it's just wrong.

That's where we are.

And for those of us who are so far away we just have to pray.

This very sad news indeed. Doesn't sound like she could handle a bunch of calls or texts yet she also seems to be reaching out to LJ for help. Yes being so far away makes it tougher on those of us that feel we should do something....anything to help. I hope that during hospital stay she didn't contract a staph infection of some type.

Betty said Mary is back in Newark University Hospital. More pain and more problems but her mind is clear. T-Mobile is the cell phone carrier if anyone has a spare phone for her.  They are waiting for answers from more tests that were done. She sounded wiped out from taking a cab back and forth, which is expensive and time consuming but she sees Mary every other day. God bless them both.

I'm really worried about her. She's pushing herself way too far past her limits.
Mary needs to stay in one place; this constant transferring back and forth is not doing her any good at all.
She's not improving physically or mentally.
I'm not impressed with her current medical team and there isn't a damn thing I can do about it.

I'm not impressed with her current medical team and there isn't a damn thing I can do about it.

THIS IS HORRIBLE
BREAKS MY HEART TO KNOW SHE HAS NO ONE TO ADVOCATE FOR HER.

I'm really worried about her. She's pushing herself way too far past her limits.

Actually Mr Perks, Mary's cousin has stepped up as an advocate.
She lives in New Jersey and his very close to Mary and Betty.
She's had some difficulty making contact with the Doctors but she is on it and she's determined to get some answers.
What I know as of now is that Mary is at University Hospital in Newark.
We are hoping she will remain there until they can get her back on track.
It remains heartbreaking as I fear the longer she lingers in this horrible pain, the harder it will be for her to
regain her strength and will to go on.

Mary is being transferred today to a Nursing Home/Rehab Center in Fairlawn New Jersey.

Unfortunately she is no better. I have not had a conversation with Mary since the morning she left Florida. Her physical and mental health have steadily deteriorated since that flight home. I have no definitive medical answers as to what exactly happened; just many opinions that I get second hand by a variety of health professionals who have no real connection to or history with her.

I can only hope that with some good Rehabilitation she will at least be able to communicate via telephone.

That is where we are.

Fair Lawn is a good 45+ minutes away from Bayonne, so this is going to be a very expensive cab ride back and forth for Betty. She'll go broke visiting, or most likely will have to cut back. This is heartbreaking.

Better news today.

I talked to Mary yesterday!!! Her Mom dialed my cell, handed Mary the phone and we had a nice conversation for about 20 minutes. She held the phone just fine and says she can absolutely use her hands, although they are weak. She was a little weepy, naturally, but completely clear headed. She feels so isolated without her phone and misses talking to us. She seems to have a good grasp on her medical condition, knows where she is, and just wants to get her hip replacement so she can get her life back. She even gave me a few classic Mary quips (Like busting on Gazza's accent). That tells ME she's still got some fight in her!

All Mary needs is a small flip phone and her plan is through Boost Mobile. Number one priority is getting her a phone so she doesn't lose her mind. I will speak to Betty and see how we can get this done. If anyone has any suggestions, please post. It was so good to talk to her.

Still working out the logistics.
Will keep everyone posted but we'll get her a phone one way or another.
Thanks for the offers to help; hoping to get someone local to get to a store and get a new phone to Mary's Mom to take to her.
If not, I'll have one shipped.

Happy to report that our hero Betty has located the TWO cell phones Mary brought home with her from Florida!! She will charge them and hopefully all the contacts are intact. Making progress. Now trying to figure out how to prevent Mary from dropping or losing the phones. Perhaps a way to wear it around her neck..................

I just spoke to a Social Worker at the Rehab Center. Mary was approved for 30 days of care at their facility. That 30 days is up May 2nd. Tomorow there is a team meeting with Mary, Betty, Social Work, Nursing and Therapy to discuss what to do next. I have asked to be conferenced in on that call to try and get some answers once and for all and to be a second pair of ears for Betty.

I know Mary is adamant about going home. I also know Betty will risk everything to take her home, against her own Doctor's wishes. At least if I am in the meeting, I can ask questions and maybe get other options or answers to help everyone make the best possible decisions. The fact that Mary has been so combative and non-cooperative does not bode well for her.

Say some prayers please and if I may be so bold as to ask for a few for myself.

No phone yet; Betty has a lot of work to do and the phone is a low priority.

Looks like Mary will be discharged home next week. Betty, against the wishes of her own Doctor, is willing to try it, and she is now looking to purchase a Hospital bed and hire home health aides to assist her. Therapists will be ordered to come into the home but insurance doesn't cover too much.

Once Mary is home, I'll advise everyone of how to contact her. We have to encourage Mary to keep fighting and work with the therapists so she can regain some independence.

It's my understanding that she will be discharged on May 3rd.
Now I'm confused.

Nonetheless, this is a huge challenge for Betty but she is determined to give Mary one more shot at coming home.

At least we'll be able to call and text to offer our encouragement and give Mary some company.

Thank you Keith for all of your help!!!

Mary is being discharged Friday, May 3rd.
It's going to be a big challenge for both Mary and her Mom but both are in great spirits and optimistic that
things are going to work out.
The Home Health Agency has been in touch with Mary, Betty and with me. They have assured me
that they will provide her with every available service.
Gimmekeef, the wheelchair was delivered Tuesday and kind neighbors have assembled it. Betty is very grateful
to you.
According to Mary's Mom she just wants to be home, able to talk on the phone and get back on the internet.

Let's all take a minute today, Mary's birthday,to send her all the positive mojo we can muster.

Hope to see her back here posting soon.

I wish I had better news but Mary was only home for few hours before she slipped off her Mom's bed onto the floor. Betty was unable to lift her so she had to call paramedics. She's back in the hospital and as of Saturday was in ICU. Mary's cousin is going to call the Doctor today to attempt to get the answers we are desperate for. I didn't have the heart to post this yesterday.

Oh wow I was afraid something like this might happen. The Dr's really need to take a hard look at her case and make some smart decisions. She seems to be going in circles from nursing homes to ICU, back to hospital rooms and rehab centers. This has got to be the worst run around I have ever witnessed, and on top of Mary's suffering, poor Betty is having trouble keeping up with this. WTF!

It is with heavy heart that I must tell you that Mary passed away at 2:00 am last night. Her brave struggle is over and she is finally out of pain and at peace. Thank you all so much for all of your prayers, love and support. I spoke to Betty; she was able to go to the Hospital to say her goodbyes. She's a strong woman but needs our prayers. RIP my beloved friend. I will miss you so much.

It's incredibly hard to find anything to say really, so I'm just gonna repeat what I've been thinking since I heard.
It was a long and so difficult battle, but in my heart I'd just always felt she would make it. She was so strong, so determined and so willing to live.
It's like this whole thing kept getting more and more difficult for her, unbelievable problem after problem.

It sucks, I don't know what else to say. It just sucks.
It's just unfair and hard and bitter.

Mary was suffering greatly. There was so much I couldn't post to respect her privacy.
If she had pulled through this, she was facing life in a Nursing Home, bedridden and blind.
Mary never wanted that; we spoke about it many times.
So while I grieve the loss of my dear friend, she's really been gone for a long time.

Betty did tell me this morning that when she went to Hospital last night to say goodbye Mary looked very good.
She was at peace.

Goodbye my little Rock N Roller.
Enjoy the rest of the Stones shows sitting on Keith's amp. I know that's where you'll be.
Sitting next to Keith, smiling and out of pain.

One love!!!

In case some of you don't know, the reason we call Mary "Little Rock and Roller" is that many years ago she got into an elevator in NYC in her best Patti-Smith-Inspired skinny black jeans and sunglasses and a couple of floors later, in walks Keith Richards. He grinned and said, "Hey there, little rock and roller." She almost freaked out.  Smiley

Goodbye, my friend.

Have become somewhat resigned to the inevitability of this over the last few days and weeks, but its still hard to take in and accept I'll never hear that mad cackling laugh again.

Its really hard to do her justice in words. To quote an old song lyric "Thats someone you never forget". When you meet her even once, I guarantee it stays with you always. Unforgettable. After those few days we had in Dublin, Lisbon and Madrid on our Stones trip, I knew I'd met someone who would always be one of the most special people in my life.

Your suffering is over, kid, but I'll never forget you.

Much love, now and always xoxoxox

I have been expecting to see the candle up for Mary for some time now, but when I came home after working the graveyard shift and saw it on Shidoobie I was still shocked! The last time I talked to her she told me she couldn't endure anymore and was hoping to die...this is a merciful passing, rest in peace Mary Scura!

I don't visit here very often,but I looked at page 1 of this thread and by the time I got to page 44,I was moved to tears .

I can see that Mary is now at peace,no pain anymore,and watching and listening this tour sitting on Keiths' amps.


Never met Mary ,but after seeing the photos of her with her Rolling Stones pals ,I feel I knew her.

You all gave her so much support and it obviously gave her a lot of joy and encouragement.

God Bless you Mary and condolences to all her friends and family, especially her wonderful Mom.

I hate being the bringer of bad news, but I see no other post besides the header concerning Mary. She has passed on. What a strong person and good friend she was to many of us. I dunno... I suppose I will just go on about my day here in Ohio.. BUT not without a certain sadness in my heart. I did not know her real well, but she was indeed a friend on here and such. She is at rest and without suffering now.


Any Thoughts are welcome

Strangely enough, I was reading this Horace poem today with my students:

"Don't you try to discover - it is forbidden to know - what end the gods will have given to me, to you,
Leuconoe - nor should you meddle with Babylonian astrological numbers. How much better it is
To endure whatever will be, whether Jupiter has allotted many more winters or this, our final one, which
wears away the sea with its pumice stone. You should be wise and pour the wine and let go your hope of
long life within these short limits! While we speak, envious time will have fled! Seize the day, trusting
as little as possible in the future."

What a beautiful, beautiful friend. Mary was wise beyond her years and had a very caring heart for everyone around her. She loved her Mother so much.

As for me...she totally got me from the beginning-she understood my crazy love for this band and she shared it too. She understood the power of the band's music; how it can help and heal and make you smile, make you cry, and make you dance like you've never danced before. This music is in our bones and in our souls. The Rolling Stones are our band and it was great fun to share the love between us. She is a true fan and I type that with a big smile on my face. Mary is rock and roll.

Well my friend, I'll be dancing and singing in Philly with you in my heart at both shows.

Rest in Peace.

Much love,
Steel Wheels

Last time I saw Mary in March she told me take her debit card and go get all of her money so she could give it to me, she said she wouldnt be needing it anymore. I natrually told her no, you will need it after you are feeling better, but deep down inside I think she knew she would never be getting better. I feel so badly for her, she suffered very much in the past year or so. I guess this is for the best, her life was in Gods hands, and when your number is up, its up, and hers is up today. I will NEVER be able to hear TUMBLING DICE again without thinking of our Mary, our GOT TO ROLL ME. I'm gonna miss you MARY! RIP my friend!

And Mary always spoke highly of our Rocks Off Community, we kept her going, she enjoyed us as cyber friends and real life friends, so thanks to everyone for the extended friendship and generosity that helped her along.

What a beautiful, beautiful friend. Mary was wise beyond her years and had a very caring heart for everyone around her. She loved her Mother so much.

As for me...she totally got me from the beginning-she understood my crazy love for this band and she shared it too. She understood the power of the band's music; how it can help and heal and make you smile, make you cry, and make you dance like you've never danced before. This music is in our bones and in our souls. The Rolling Stones are our band and it was great fun to share the love between us. She is a true fan and I type that with a big smile on my face. Mary is rock and roll.

Well my friend, I'll be dancing and singing in Philly with you in my heart at both shows.

Rest in Peace.

Much love,
Steel Wheels

p.s. Turn this up loud and shake a tail feather.

So well said, SW. See you in Philly and we will toast our friend.

Just spoke to Mary's mum a few minutes ago. What a courageous and brave lady she is. I'm so glad that I got to speak to her on Tuesday evening and tell her to send Mary my love, because when she did so yesterday afternoon, Mary - despite slipping in and out of consciousness and not having been able to see for a couple of weeks - managed to turn to her mum and look right at her acknowledging what she'd just said.

Mary's funeral will be on Monday. They've decided to play 'Shine a Light' at the ceremony, which is a nice touch. Her mum loves the song also.

SCL, Mary passed at 2am NY time, so I'm thinking she might have joined you in the pit for encore last night.


By my reckoning, during 'You cant always get what you want', so you're probably right.

The Stones also played 'No Expectations' last night which was a very poignant and ironic choice. Even more so because the last time they did so was at the show in Lisbon in 2007 which I attended with her and which was also the day we first met.

Very sad news indeed and commiserations to all those of you who knew her personally.

Off the Board she and I exchanged the occasional email and I am pleased to say she was a friend if only a long distance one.

imho her posts about the stones particularly and music generally displayed an understanding and embodiment of the spirit of rock and roll that was second to none, a fact which showed up in spades in Gazza's recounting of their adventures in '06.

Goodbye my friend.

It was an awful and strange feeling to hear of Mary's death today. After so many ups and downs in her ordeal, I actually did think she would get reasonably healthy and functioning again.
I didn' t know her, but would have very much liked to, at the very least chat on the phone or whatnot. When I first registered here (actually the second time, after the "crash" or whatever), she was one of the first and few posters to respond to me, and did so in a friendly, knowing and knowledgable way. I still remember the post: it was on the "what are you listening to now?" thread. I said Lou Reed's 'Blue Mask' album and raved about guitarist Robert Quine. She said "oh, aye. I recall seeing Quine with Richard Hell and the Voidoids many a time in NYC". And then said this to me: "You're a man after my own heart, Mr. Yeats". Oh really? Well, then...seems like my kind of people. And a girl! Single perhaps...?
And then more recently to see some pictures of her: that red hair, the very particular way she's crossing her legs in the photo with her other Rocks Off mates where she's giving the finger; the couple pics where you can see her green eyes (fuck the shades). My impression was that we were both of approximately the same age, had similar musical tastes, possibly similar backgrounds. She seemed so smart. She seemed to take no guff. She seemed to have a big heart and humor.

And then came this thread.

I don't take death well. I've experienced quite a few family and very, very close friends dying from various causes in the last ten very short years. I should be getting used to it. Rather, it throws me for a loop every time. I'll spare the details, but one thing is I seem to, often, get angry. And Mary's death has struck that chord in me. Please tell me to shut up, calm down, whatever, but I'd like to know how, after surviving two liver transplants (the second apparently successful), a hip replacement can cause blindness and then death. An infection? With a battery of doctors, nurses, social workers in two states?...In the year 2013? With people from at least two continents assisting, encouraging and advocating for her?
What the fuck is this?
None of my business - I understand. And Lady Jane, Gazza, Bitch, VooDoo, Gimmekeef, and many other beautiful people on this board - you've shown yourselves to be of the very highest order of human development. The very best of what our species is, or can be.

But still: how in fucks name do you die from a a fucked up hip while surrounded by North American medical personel?

I am sorry to rave. I am sorry for Mary, I am sorry for Mary's mum. I am sorry to and for all of you who were her friends.


All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language; and every chapter must be so translated...As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon, calls not upon the preacher only, but upon the congregation to come: so this bell calls us all: but how much more me, who am brought so near the door by this sickness....No man is an island, entire of itself...any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
- John Donne

Sleep well Mary.

Mr. Yeats, you are aptly named. Poetic thoughts.

I don't want to violate Mary's privacy, but what I can tell you is that this is a very fucked up medical system. Mary qualified for Social Security Disability and Medicaid and got some very expensive procedures and for a while some good health care... But the system let her down. As she transferred back from FL where livers were more available, she seemed to fall through the medical cracks. In desperation she went ba k to FL to try to reconnect with her doctor there and it was there that they diagnosed the need for a hip transplant. Then we find out that Medicaid was out of money for this fiscal year and no more operations could be approved till July 2013. She was in excruciating pain, unable to take pain meds, and was told that in a few months maybe she could get on a hip replacement list.

And the eyesight thing came about, we think, as a result of neurological damage. All of this in the USA where I thought my tax dollars helped those who did not have the means for private insurance.

I visited her in FL in February at the Medicaid nursing home where she was stuck trying to recouperate enought to go home to Jersey. It was not a pretty place.

I am ashamed of American healthcare programs. My friend did not deserve this buerocratic bullshit.

Perfectly stated SV.
She really did fall victim to a very broken system and because of it endured more pain and suffering than anyone deserves.
She was stronger and braver than I ever could have been.
All she wanted was her life back and to take care of her Mother.

I have a hard time believing there will be a dry eye when Billy's piano kicks off.

From what I've gathered and seen posted, as big and soulful a Stones fan there was. RIP Mary.

I was so sure to be able to meet her one day flying to USA.
Since we were chatting I've been quickly realized she was the kind of person very close to me in many aspects... as personality, dreams, way of life. we never meet each other but simply we were close, I don't know, maybe it's a sort of alchemy, symphaty, or simply the natural feeling between  persons.
Really sadness, she wasn't a Stones fan only, I'm sure Mary is / was a beautiful person.
as SweetVirginia said to me, it's horrible to find out by seeing the candle at Rocks Off...
all my love for you Mary

Since she was in agony and until now I can’t express how I feel about the whole thing, Gazza told me the day before she passed that there was no hope for Mary and that the doctors said that she may not live through the day as they can't do anything more for her.

Since then I’m in shock, devastated.

Mary was my friend, a real friend

That day I almost cried my friends but now reading your very touching words made the tear drop fall, I’m writing with wet eyes

This is the time when we can see there are real people behind our strange usernames, we’re not just words to read, we’re not just fans posting news and documenting the Rolling Stones trajectory, we are real people, we are real friends, we are a real community, small but big, you know what I mean

About Mary the only thing I can tell you people is that I loved her and I love her, she will always be part of me, we talked a lot not just of stones, but Jimi, rock, life, etc

Love you kiddo, rest in peace babe

This is our song, you and I know it, only you and I... let’s sing it Mary


...and the wind whispers Mary
...the wind cries Mary
...the wind screams Mary
...


Yours forever

Mary's Mom just ORDERED me to let all of you know that
she will be laid to rest in a Rolling Stones shirt "and I don't give
a shit what any of my old fuddy duddy friends think".

Her signature sunglasses will be at her side as well.

Betty sounds pretty strong today. We cried a little but we laughed more.

She misses Mary but feels her presence.
I'll say.
The Stones Tee "just happened" to fall on the floor when Mary's cousin
walked into the bedroom yesterday. It didn't fall on the floor. Mary pushed it!!!

My heart is so heavy today.
I may be in Buffalo, but my heart is in New Jersey as Mary is laid to rest.



I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side,
spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts
for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength.
I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck
of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.

Then, someone at my side says, "There, she is gone"
...
Gone where?

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast,
hull and spar as she was when she left my side.
And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port.

Her diminished size is in me -- not in her.
And, just at the moment when someone says, "There, she is gone,"
there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices
ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!"

And that is dying...
Death is as unique as the individual experiencing it.

"Gone from my Sight" by Henry Van Dyke.
One of my favorites.
I truly believe that she is now with her loved ones in a better place.
I just feel a void in my heart that I doubt will ever be filled.
Many tears will be cried today.

My Fellow Stones Fans,

This is not easy for me, but I'm at the point where I can't worry about being judged for something stupid I did almost 20 years ago.

I recently found out I have Hepatitis, and it's at the point now where I need to publicly solicit donors. If I can't find a compatible donor, chances are I'll have less than a year or two to live. I'm already on medication that is making me feel ill every day. The way a living donation works is they find a compatible donor (same blood type, body mass index, etc.) in good health and take a piece or "lobe" from their liver and transplant it. The liver actually regenerates and grows back to its original state within a few months.

They take the entire "bad" liver out of the recipient and replace it with this "lobe," and if I'm lucky my body won't reject it and I'd get to live a normal lifespan, albeit on regenerative drugs. I'd be ecstatic just to have another 10 years at this point. You see, I look after my mom, who is 88 years old. The thought of leaving her here alone is more than I can bear. Most of my family are gone, and the few who are left cannot care for her. I have no family I can solicit as donors either.

Last year, there were something like 6,500 transplants. There are currently 17,000 people on national waiting lists. I live in the New York area, so my chances of getting a compatible donor are slim to none. My blood type is O+. I'm asking everyone I know, because the more people who are aware of this, the better my chances are. Please don't turn this into a discussion thread. If you can help or know someone who can, PM me.

Here is a link explaining living liver donation:

http://www.liverfoundation.org/education/info/transplant/

http://www.livingdonorsonline.org/liver/liver.htm

Thanks to the mods for allowing me to make this public plea. If you know me personally, you know how hard it is for me to "go public" with this. I'm putting my faith in the Stones Community.



Lest anyone did not see the post that started this whole thread......I'm still depressed and sad over things but know Mary is no longer suffering and in a better place.

One thing is for sure, Mary always talked about the Rocks Off people and it really meant something to her that we were all trying to help. For those who went the extra mile, she knew it and she was thankful for the people here. It actually says a lot about the board's charactor. Sure we fuck around alot but when it comes down to something serious, RO people pull through. Mary was proud to call you friends and I am too.

very well said, Ellen.

Like keef and LJ, and Im sure a few others, I was re-reading the initial posts in this thread again over the last few days.  It might have started in January 2010, but she started feeling ill about 18 months before that and finally got diagnosed around summer 2009 if I remember correctly. So, that was a five year struggle in all, with quite a few ups but mostly downs - and a couple of miracles thrown in for good measure.

Still all very hard to take in, to be honest.  Sad

I've been listening to Stones music all week in her honor. It started with Exile on Main Street. I went cruising around Philly with the windows rolled down and the cd player turned up high.

I do remember having a conversation with her in 2009 at some point about health and family and wills and what happens when one passes. At the time I said to myself, "Is she trying to tell me something?" but chalked it up to the fact I was going through a lot of family medical issues and a funeral or two. Now I see I was right the first time. She was trying to tell me something.

Mary was a very good person. I can't stress that enough. She was always kind and caring and just a great soul all around. And with me, she was always upbeat about her recovery. She would tell me about the horrible pain, but follow it up with a hopeful statement indicating to me that she was not going to let this defeat her. I don't think she wanted me to see her NOT being positive, you know? Now when I read the stories about just how bad she had it, and the things she said to others about her condition, it makes me get emotional.

I think she wanted to shield me from how bad she really had it.

Gold rings on that dear dear woman. She was one of a kind and will be missed by many people!

Mary loved this wacky place and all of its inhabitants. In our very last conversation, she told me she just wanted her
life back. She wanted to talk to her friends and post on Rocks Off. Never a bad word about anyone; and always defended others when I'd get catty.

I trust she is reading this thread right now.
I miss you Mary. One love indeed.

WOW,THAT IS NICE TO HEAR...I WAS AT THE AC BAR & GRILL BOTH NIGHTS,WISH I HAD MET UP WITH Y'ALL.

LJ, I KNOW IT'S LITTLE CONSOLATION , BUT THE WAY YOU HANDLED YOURSELF THROUGHOUT ALL OF THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.

Mary was a very good person. I can't stress that enough. She was always kind and caring and just a great soul all around. And with me, she was always upbeat about her recovery. She would tell me about the horrible pain, but follow it up with a hopeful statement indicating to me that she was not going to let this defeat her. I don't think she wanted me to see her NOT being positive, you know? Now when I read the stories about just how bad she had it, and the things she said to others about her condition, it makes me get emotional.

I think she wanted to shield me from how bad she really had it.

Gold rings on that dear dear woman. She was one of a kind and will be missed by many people!



I can relate to these thoughts, SW. A few years ago, out of the blue, I received a vinyl Exile album from Mary. She attached a note, thanking me for some stuff and said, "sorry all the postcards are not still with the album, but most of them are."

Right then, I suspected that she was feeling much worse than we knew. I stood there in my kitchen and cried.

She was something.

So true!

I keep remembering the talks we had with Mary over e-mail, and her postcards and her gifts. How she helped me when my cat was ill and I couldn't get him a diagnosis here. And the cat loving stories we shared  Smiley So many good memories.
It's so funny how you can get to know a person and love them so much, even though you've never met. She was such a joy, so clever and kind and caring.

Thanks to Sweet Virginia, the brilliant art work of Fabio Hot Stuff has been made into buttons to honor the memory of our beloved Mary. SV has been handing these out at all Stones show she has and will attend. We want Mary to go to as many shows as possible. If you will be in Philly, Boston, DC and/or Hyde Park, SV will have one for you.

SV's acted very well and you LJ was an amazing friend for Mary. It's so sad and hard re-read all her thread since the beginning. As said Gazza, I cannot take it so easy, not yet. She was someone I loved as a sister. And she will remain it in my heart forever. Thank you  for all and I'd be blessed as she was

What a great gesture SV.
So nice to know that Mary will be there,sitting on Keiths' amp at some shows in North America and Hyde Park.

Marys' story and her pain and anguish moved me to tears when I came upon this thread,a day or two after her passing.
I was moved to tears,and though I didn't know her, the lovely pics I have seen of the Rocks Off crowd,makes me feel I do.

Would love to make it to Hyde Park and see other fans wearing the Mary Button.  London is my home town,but will be over here in sunny Spain,enjoying the reviews and youtube clips and thinking of Mary realy enjoying each gig she go's to.          God Bless You Mary.     Let's go get drunk

A childhood friend of Mary's posted this on her Facebook wall. It's a pic of Mary walking in a Park in Jersey in the 70's.
I find, along with many others. find it very poignant.
Wanted to share it here.

Really a great pic from SV. Smiley Keith seems an Olympic champion who is saying with his arms up, I'd done all this for you my friend Mary whenever you are. So she was surely enjoying the show.

I just talked to Mary's Mom for over an hour. She wanted to hear all about the DC show. I told her about all the people at all the shows wearing Mary buttons and she was very moved. She thinks it's a lovely tribute to her girl.

She's doing okay. Up and down and missing her daughter very very much.

She's getting lots of support from her friends and family though. They look after her.

I had the task of selling Mary's car. It was difficult due to the fact that the air conditioning didn't work and the car was in FL with very high temps every day especially summertime. So the car was sitting there unused as Mary was paying $75/month to park it. I told her she could park it for free and save the monthly fee so she gave me the keys to move it to my condo's parking spot in FL which was empty so no charge to her since November and she can get it as soon as she is well enough to drive again. As it turned out, she never needed her car again, sadly. The car had expired registration from 2012, car inspection was expired from 2011, insurance expired in June. So I was lucky enough to find someone to take it "as is" and I sent Mary's mom the full amount that I was able to get, and I checked Kelly's blue book and used their figures. Betty was happy and I was happy to do it or her. So as I got ready to sell it, I took out the CD's that were n the CD player, most of them unmarked, but there are 3 Who CD's 2 Broadway shows and when I listen to the unmarked CD's I will post what they are. Hopefully Stones bootlegs that I don't have! Anyway, that's my final Mary story, the car is sold and 100% of the money sent to Betty. She is happy and so am I. Mary, I hope you are happy that you trusted me with your car, it might have been worth a bit more it the AC was working but I had to deduct for the repairs, so  your mom got what it was worth and not a penny less. xo

Good work Ellen. You were such a huge help to Mary.
I know Betty is relieved to have the car sold. It was worrying her.

You know, we lost Mary and then I got wrapped up in the Stones shows.
It wasn't until this week, when things started to calm down, and life is returning to "normal" that I'm really starting to mourn her loss.

I hate goodbyes.

I wore the Mary button proudly at Philly #1 and #2 on my official Rolling Stones fan club hat. It was very nice to see other people wearing the buttons, too. Someone came my way and we both said hello and shared a few words about Mary and the show after noticing the buttons.

This was from a complete stranger, you know? But we had a common bond - a friendship with Mary.

How cool is that?

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I've just read on Bob Jegle's facebook page that he passed away on Wednesday night/Thursday morning. I know he had been ill lately but this is a terrible shock.

His unselfish gesture in looking after Mary will never be forgotten. How cruel that they should both be taken just three months apart.

RIP Bob.

I agree. They fought hard but were really like Brother and Sister and grew to love each other deeply.

After Mary passed away, Bob called me. He was distraught as was I. He wanted me to know that he was sending roses to the service. Then he started to laugh and said "We made a deal that whoever died first, the other would see to it that roses were on the grave. I don't think the florist will send a bouquet of dead flowers though".

This is shocking news.

RIP Bob. I will be forever grateful to you for all you did for Mary.

OMG I am so surprised about this! I met him a few times when I was visiting Mary when she was living with him in Fort Lauderdale. He was very sweet, bringing her the food that she liked and making sure she was eating enough, he even offered me some whenever I was there and he seemed in good health last year. Maybe he was suffering quietly and he was being brave for Mary's sake. I hope he gets some roses on his grave too. Sad. SO sorry to read this. Thanks for posting this here Gazza, I didnt catch it on FB.

Had a nice long phone chat with Betty on Sunday. She's doing very well; keeping busy and getting out when she can. Of course she misses her Mary very very much; it's so hard for her. No Parent should ever have to bury a child. Just thought I'd share as I'm sure you all will send prayers and good thoughts Betty's way.

Remembering our girl on the 6 month anniversary of her passing.
Shared some tears with her Mom today; she's strong and doing well but in her words "They say time makes it easier, but that's just not true."

I know what she means. I miss my friend very much. I know we all do.

One Love!!

The weird thing is I started working in FL and the nursing home Mary was in is right around the block, and every time I drive by I think about Mary. She did suffer but I often think she went too young. Mary's time on earth was completed six months ago, so we must accept it, like it or not. But I've often wondered, is our death pre-determined, or do we seal our own fate by the choices we make?

IMO
Death Is pre-determined,
But our Life Is a choice.......good or bad, with love or hate,
happiness or sorry,
it's ours, how we live, so choose wisely!
Sorry if this sounds preachy, but right or wrong, I believe most religions teach us to live in peace, and to forgive and not judge others to harshly, least we be judged.
We all make bad decisions, it's how we deal with these decisions and choices that make the/a difference.
I just had a friend take his life, there was nothing we could do, nothing, I'll never know why, or if we could have done something. If anything. I still believe that it was pre-determined, and nothing could have been done to stop him.
Sorry..........had to get it out.

Hang in there Kilroy the mysteries of life can be harsh and cruel but sharing your feelings with friends can be a great relief and comfort. Raised a glass and bowl last night to our dear Mary!

Just under three weeks ago we learned that Danny Keane, the man who saw to it that Mary made it home to New Jersey, was suffering from pancreatic cancer. Today, we learned that he has passed away. I cannot believe that Mary, Danny and Bob Jegle were each taken from us. No two men did more for Mary while she was in Florida than Danny and Bob. Without them , she would not have had a fighting chance. Danny leaves behind a wife, children and beautiful granddaughter. Please offer a prayer of thanks for what he did for our girl and send healing thoughts to his family. This is just so sad. Sad

Mary spoke of Danny often and fondly. His brother accompanied Mary up to NJ for her final trip home. Not sure of his name though.  RIP Danny.

I still have Mary's pin that was given to me by Sweet Virginia at the first Chicago show last year.

Don't know if I'll ever make it to another show, so if anyone wants mine to wear to an upcoming show, PM me your shipping information.

I display the Mary pin on a framed picture of Keith in my audio room. Every time I go in there, I see it.

Gonna play Tumbing Dice in her honor today!

Just want to let ya'll know that I spoke to Mary's Mom this weekend.
She's doing quite well but, of course, misses her daughter especially as the 1st anniversary of  Mary's passing approaches.
Betty's nephew answered the phone; he's spending a few days with her and she continues to get lots of help from her neighbors.
Always makes me feel good to talk to Miss Betty. Smiley

Happy 94th Birthday to Mary's Mom Betty.
Betty now lives in a Nursing Home and isn't able to talk on the phone with me like she used to, but as you can see she is very happy and well taken care of.

Gold rings on this amazing woman. I'm sure her beloved daughter is smiling down on her with pride.
