Visits and Flowers:

Joann's doctors are not restricting flowers.

Visiting hours for Joann are daily 6:30 PM to 7:30, and additionally, 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM on Saturday and Sunday. We dearly appreciate your love, concern, prayers, and efforts to travel to Albany. Joann needs to conserve her energy for herself and Larissa, and we ask that you keep your visits brief.

Please don't visit if you have a cold or infection. She would also enjoy a card or note whenever you find the time.

We have a list of interesting things to do and good places to eat around Albany, so that you'll enjoy your trip even more. Click here for a map and directions to the hospital from Exit 23 of the Thruway.

The nurses have requested that all visitors, including AMC staff and Jim, check with the nursing station before entering Joann's room. They are being very protective of her for medical, emotional, and meditative reasons.
