I spoke with Peter's wife Marian earlier today, and she provided me
with additional details on Peter's illness.  Peter experienced severe
back pain at the California School Library Association Conference in
Sacramento a week and a half ago which prompted a trip to an area
hospital where he was treated and released.  He returned his local
hospital in Chico where he has been receiving treatment for a week.
His illness was at last identified as an infection in his blood which
was causing problems with his spine and excruciating pain.  They are
now treating him with penicillin, and his temperature has returned to
normal, but he continues to experience a great deal of pain.  While
his condition is improving, he is still in serious condition, and they
expect a long road before he is recuperated.

Close friends and family of the Milburys are organizing a CarePage
online which will allow Marian to quickly post updates on Peter's
situation, and it will also allow friends and family to post messages
and words of encouragement to them.

At present, they are discouraging visitors to the hospital, and I
would also discourage phone calls to their residence as Peter's wife
is already overwhelmed with responding to the number of messages she
has received.

As soon as the CarePage is up and running, I will pass along the
information to the group, and we'll continue to update the group as
needed in the meantime.
