good call, Shari! let's hope that the Gods are with them both, and the surgeons can work some miracles over the next many hours.

Can someone near San Quintin check on their home and secure it... if it isn't too late? Perhaps there are others in that group of homes who are also
there now and already taking care of Ron's place and any pets they have?

also, I was just wondering if there is any way to "fix" a post so that it stays up at the top when it is a serious situation, like today's ? I think
it would be helpful.

Blanca,
I already "topped" it earlier in the Baja News forum.
There's no function to "top" a thread in the list of Today's Posts.

I'm standing by at home if anything else is needed, I'm by a phone so if phone calls need to be made please let me know, Adrian took the car to work
but I can go get it if need arises...
Please let me know if there is anything else that needs to be done. Adrian's uncle works at Sanatorio del Carmen but isn't in today, I'll call him
tomorrow and ask him to keep us posted, if and when they stabilize ron I'll swing by and visit him to make sure everything is ok.
Live life as well as you can,
don\'t regret the things that once made you smile,
learn from your mistakes,
and thank God for every second he gives you upon this earth.

David, thanks for the pic. I'm hoping it will be okay to also share this pic of Ron and Cristina - as I was going through some of their pics posted
online... thinking of them right now.

Dr Janene just called after being at Del Carmen. The hospital is telling of a man and wife who are with Ron and Cristina. I'm assuming it's the
people who came north with them. The woman is hanging with Cristina and the man is at Del Carmen, but had stepped out so Janene couldn't grill him.
The hospital is virtually unmanned today and there are no surgeons in waiting. It wouldn't matter since the hospital can't make a move without family
consent and their contact info is being kept a guarded secret by the man who has it....whoever he is.
Cristina has family in Tijuana, but I have no idea what they're up to.
It's Dr. Js professional opinion that Ron has to be taken to the states immediatly due to the lack of diagnostic tools in the local system. Very few
MRI machines.
It is also her opinion that Del Carmen will oppose this idea as Ron is a cash-cow. She says the facility is grossly inadaquate.
Dr. J can't understand why he wasn't taken to the border when he was transported, if his life was their primary concern.....who knows.
Perhaps Marty Cortez at TalkBaja, I know he's following this, could get in touch with Ron's family so things can proceed. It's all in their hands at
this point.

Dennis, Please Forgive for Intruding
But what is the Del Carmen Hospital issue? Are they worried about getting paid?
Air ambulance to the U.S. sounds great, but I believe you have to have the insurance to cover it.
There is a "state-of-art" MRI lab in TJ - Imagen.
He could be transported by ambulance, undergo the MRI and be treated by one of the hospitals in TJ.

I am shocked by this. We all talk of "Crime in Mexico" and it can be academic with arguing statistics, etc. until................it happens to a
friend or family then it's just so damn personal. It fills you first with sorrow then the anger creeps in................
Our best thoughts headed their way for a recovery.
Ron has talked many times of family in So Cal!
We were going to meet at the Old Pier next month.
