7/25/2012

On the morning of July 17th Dennis Cahill suffered a massive ischemic stroke and was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit at St. Joseph Hospital in Eureka. After more than a week, Denny continues his care and recovery in the ICU at the hospital. The Cahill family feels blessed to have such a supportive community during this difficult time. We wanted to create an online forum to allow us to get information on his condition to you more quickly, and to give people a place to send comments for us to pass along to Denny as he recovers.  Unfortunately, Denny is not in a condition to welcome many of the well-wishers who would like to pay him a visit. We will spread the word as soon as that changes. We would like to thank you all for the prayers, calls, meals and thoughts. The outpouring of support is greatly appreciated by the entire family and we know your support will aid Denny as recovers.

  1. Love the picture! No doubt Denny had spotted a fascinating marine animal or offshore bird. Denny is in our thoughts and prayers day and night. We can hardly wait to visit him in person and hear some of those corny puns. Please give him a giant hug and kiss from his baby sister and favorite Jewish brother-in-law.
