John Bish has been upgraded from critical to serious condition.
The father of Molly Bish, the Warren teenager who disappeared in 2000, suffered a stroke June 15th.
John Bish and his wife, Magdelen, have been advocates for missing and exploited children since 16-year-old Molly vanished from her lifeguard post at Comins Pond on June 27th, 2000.
Her remains were found three years later near the Warren-Palmer line.
Nobody was ever charged in Molly's disappearance or death, and a grand jury investigating the case was dismissed in December 2006 by former Worcester District Attorney John Conte.
The Springfield Republican reports that John Bish's condition was upgraded yesterday at U-Mass Medical Center in Worcester.
A fund has been established to help offset any medical expenses not covered by insurance.
Donations to the John Bish recovery fund can be made at any Spencer Savings Bank. Checks can also be mailed to Spencer Savings Bank, 176 Main St., Spencer, MA 01562
A memorial service marking the seventh year of Molly's disappearance will go on as planned Wednesday.
