Update from Esther Pollard: Jonathan conscious and aware and in a lot of
pain
Dr. Aaron Lerner - IMRA 3 August 2011
Esther Pollard gave IMRA permission to distribute the following two e-mails
she sent:
#1 Dear Friends
Received an update from prison a few minutes ago. Jonathan had the
operation. He is conscious and aware. He is in a lot of pain as a result of
the operation but the pain is expected to subside as he heals. I am hopeful
that I will be able to speak with Jonathan in the coming hours. Will keep
you posted.
#2 Since the news of Jonathan's operation broke yesterday, we have been
overwhelmed with an outpouring of support and concern from the Israeli
people and from the Israeli media for which we are deeply grateful. While I
am deeply relieved that Jonathan came through the operation and is now
recovering, this is not a solution, just a temporary fix. He needs to come
home now where he can receive the care and treatment he desperately needs.
After 26 years in prison without proper nutrition or medical care, he is in
a very weak and compromised state physically. Time is running out...
