Scott.

It's an odd feeling to anxiously check one's e-mail, hoping that a message came through while hoping that the message never comes.  Scott is not doing well.  On Thursday night I received an e-mail from Sondra that indicated that Scott was expected to pass through that night or possibly the next day.  Ever since then I have been checking my e-mail obsessively.  My inbox barely has a chance to collect more than one e-mail before I have checked it, anticipating that I will get "the" news from Sondra.  Sondra did send out an e-mail around noon today that stated that Scott is still holding on, but barely.  His breathing has gotten even slower, his pulse is low, he is nearly unresponsive.  I don't want his body to feel pain, but I don't want him to go.  I don't want to hear the news that Scott has passed, but I don't want to not know when it happens.  The only thing I can do is continue to pray for him and his family.
