I went to visit him in the hospital after we lost the San Diego game. He knew that game was going to be tough for Eli because we all did.

Just as he lived on his own terms, advocating for the rights of human beings, the rights of those who were forgotten or ignored, from victims of rape in Africa, to the homeless on streets worldwide, he chose to move into a more abundant life, not from a hospital bed, but from his home in Vatican City.

Looking at the debt the hospital will ultimately incur is going to really challenge its ability to ever be in a situation where it has much freedom to create stable, healthy margins on a regular basis.

If they keep it, they may be chronically saddled with difficulties maintaining margins.
