Dear Brothers and Sisters:
*Updates on Jamil Al-Amin's health:*

As-Salaamu 'Alaikum wa Rahmatullah

There is a sign of progress but Imam Jamil's condition is still dire and 
in need of advocacy. Here is the latest update as of last night:

1- A dentist finally removed a broken tooth of Imam Jamil at its root 
and gave him antibiotics, but he still has not seen a physician.

2- He has not been able to eat and the dentist has agreed that the 
abscess (one on each side) caused damage, i.e., his inability to breathe 
and the total shut down of his body.

3- He is only able to get out of bed a few times a day, and he has not 
been strong enough to get any exercise. In fact, he is stating that he 
is having difficulty walking.

4- He had an X-ray approximately two weeks ago, but does not know the 
results.

5- His feet (top and bottom) are swollen, and that needs to be addressed 
by a physician.

6- A medical aide (Nigerian) went by his cell and talked to him through 
the cell door--a medical examination?

7- He is aware that some communication from a Congressional office was 
received on his behalf, but he doesn't know the details.
8- He has not had recreation since he has been ill, which indicates that 
the prison is aware As you know, Imam Jamil is over 70 years old and 
needs emergency medical care without delay, in accordance with federal 
prison standards. His life is at risk.
