Jack Smolen

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.


Jack was hospitalized for Thanksgiving @ St. Joe's & again @ Upstate on December 2nd.    Dad is slated to come home from the hospital sometime on Monday, December 11th.  His condition has deteriorated - he is extremely week & we are working with a Palliative Care team from Upstate Medical Center to keep him home & make him as comfortable as possible while there.  He requires around the clock care now.



As a family, we are committed to providing home care & are well aware of how exhausting it can be for the caregivers & especially Mary.  She needs just as much support as Jack.


We are blessed with friends & family that want to inquire about his condition, have offered to help & want to know the best way to do so.  Hopefully this website will make it easier to coordinate all of our efforts.
