My name is Ben, and I’m the boyfriend of The Thread Pirate Roberts, who is noranew’s daughter. This evening, noranew was admitted to the hospital with a severe blockage in her liver. The complications are serious enough that a liver transplant specialist is being consulted.
This thread will be updated as I am given information regarding noranew’s condition. Those who have a way of contacting The Thread Pirate Roberts are encouraged to do so.
(Note) The Thread Pirate Roberts does not currently have access to a computer and as a result cannot respond to queries online. When this changes, I’m sure everyone will know.
I will be seeing my mom tomorrow and I will let her know you guys are pulling for her. I still don’t have regular access to a computer but any updates we get I will pass on through thebadman
I will keep checking back to this thread for news of norinew.
I’ll pray she gets better. And as I do in all such threads, tell the family to get regular meals and sleep well, because it just wouldn’t do to have more Dopers get sick.
