Have to postpone Grenada Trip =(

We have to postpone our Grenada trip as my Mother has been stricken with an aneurysm.

Please pray for her as she is in surgery and will have a long recovery.

Peace

Dear Greenie,

Woman of peace and many other virtures, I'm sure, my heart is with you !

I have what I call "an army in heaven" and they join me in offering prayers.

It is so hard to know what to say or do in such a circumstance.

As strangers, we have come to know and respect writers here and to call them friends. You are a friend of many here!

So I wish you PEACE and send you HUGS !

<b>So sorry to hear that Greenie. I had to postpone my trip to Provo last year because my husband had a stroke. Luckily he has recovered and we are now leaving back to TCI tomorrow in better spirits than when we went last year. I hope everything turns out positive for you as it did for us....I will pray for your mother...</b>

Oh thank you so much, everyone, for your well wishes!

Mom is out of surgery. Now the hard part begins. They say we'll be in ICU for at least 3 weeks.

Thank you all for the warmth your words have given me.

Peace and Hope...Greenie

Hi there Greenie,

I am so sorry to hear about your Mom, and please know that we are ALL thinking about and praying for you and your family.

I am glad to read she is out of surgery successfully.

My fodors family was very comforting to me in the wake of my husband's illness lat year, and having just lost my Dad in March, I know how quickly and unexpectedly things happen.

We are thinking of you, and sending healing light your Mom's way.

Please do let us know how things are going.

Thank you all for the kind words and thoughts and especially your prayers. My Mother is making tiny steps forward toward recovery. And for that I am grateful.

We have managed to reschedule our trip for October. Can't wait. Boy will I need a vacation by then!

Peace!
