whole thing off. She said to tell you each, "Thanks for the prayers and hugs!" Here is another wonderful proof of the power of prayer. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for keeping Loretta in your heart, your mind, and your prayers. Without the love and support from around the world, this recovery may not have been possible. Thanks for caring enough for Loretta.

More than that, Thank You for caring and being there for her when most of us are not close enough to visit! Personal contact with family and friends is very important to the ones in a nursing home. Most are sick or in bad health and then they are taken away from family and friends and confined to a tiny room, most of the time with a total stranger. It is a strange place to find yourself and not be able to do anything about it! I was confined in one for 8 months at 57. I was very sick and also confined to bed. I knew I would be able to go back home as soon as my legs healed and it was an experience that I hope I have to never go through again. I think you are just wonderful for giving your time and love to Loretta! My best friend drove over 60 miles(both ways combined) twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays every week but 1, the whole time I was in there. She lost her precious Furbaby the week she did not come and she cried for the whole week. She did not even tell me about it because she knew I would be upset also. She just said she was sick when she called the director to let me know that she would not be there. She was the one that followed the ambulance to the Nursing Home when I was admitted and she was the one to take me home. Without Shelia, I would have been lost. My aunts and my half brother visited me several times but they lived a long way from the home. My lifetime best friend from school days until now also made the very long trip to come see me. Shelia was the one to admit me to the hospital for surgery also. She actually saved my life. There is no way that I could ever pay her back for all that she did for me. YOU ARE A VERY SPECIAL person. (I am not yelling but wanted it to be seen) May God bless you as well as Miss Loretta! I have never met you in person but I thank you more than you know! I have been there and done that. Hugs and blessings to you and Miss Loretta!

Shirlene, what a wonderful friend she has in you!! I am so happy to know that she is getting better. Rest is the best thing she can do right now. I have a friend that had her brother go into the hospital last Thurs. then he passed away Sun. with the big "P". It is so dangerous. Give her my love. H&*

so very glad Miss Loretta is on the mend. She surely is one very strong Lady. Your special friendship with her gives me much joy in knowing this. If only we could all visit her. May I ask? Does she know we are making her a gift....love and hugs Kerry

Kerry, it would be neat - if you all could visit with her - but I do take her the messages you all send. She doesn't know about the quilt - I want that to be a surprise. Hehehe!

Hi Shirlene, thanks for letting us know that Miss Loretta is feeling better. It's so good of you to go and visit her - how far away from you does she live?

Prayer makes everything possible. Praise the Lord!

Love and blessings Chris

You are welcome Chris. She lives about 5 miles, maybe less. Yes, we are so thankful for all the prayers, too.

Hi, Shirlene - thank-you for the good news and for being so supportive to Miss Loretta and for being the bridge between Miss Loretta and the many people who care about her; Both Miss Loretta and our selves are blessed to be able to call you a friend; you are both in my prayers - Miss Loretta for a steady continued recovery and you for the strength, and good enough health to continue to be such a wonderful support.

Thanks for the update. And thanks for the time you spend with her. I'm sure she is thrilled to see/hear from you. Without your selfless efforts we would all be wondering how Loretta is doing.
