Many of our parishioners have asked, "How is Father Sullivan?" Father entered

the hospital on Wednesday of Holy Week after he had been diagnosed with

pneumonia. After several days, Father entered Rydal Park.

It was hoped that his rehab would allow him to return to Immaculate Conception.

Unfortunately, his health has deteriorated significantly. Throughout his stay at Immaculate, Father has received excellent medical care from his primary doctor, Max Mercado. Max's medical team put together a therapeutic regimen designed to sustain Father and keep him at Immaculate Conception. His nurse, Kate Breslin, has worked hard as Father's advocate as he explored his options.

​

Unfortunately, Father's options have been exhausted. He has life-threatening medical complications, even with the best medical treatment. Father Sullivan has asked to be placed in hospice. He is at peace with this decision. He will be made comfortable and without pain.

Father asks for your prayers. Though many would want to visit Father, his condition will not permit it. Rather than sending cards, he asks that you pray for him.

As a parish, let us be believers all united, heart and soul, as we pray for one who has loved us much and whom we love.
