Quick/brief update.

The person that I asked for prayer for survived the current crisis and is 
highly likely (but never certain) to wind the immediate short term battle. 
The various responses that I received on and off list were greatly 
appreciated.

A group of friends, family and associated professionals is planning to "gang 
up on him" and hold a family group conference to see if the until now 
repetitive crisis pattern can be broken. The reason for his problems is 
extremely deep rooted and entirely likely to not be amenable to complete 
recification by anything short of a genuine miracle (even by James' 
standards :-) ).  [[Suffice it to say that it's is exceptionally unlikely 
that anybody here would wish to be subject to the childhood that he had to 
go through]].

thanks again
