This topic is a place we can use to let each other know if a member is going into the hospital, or some similar health-related situation has occurred. we'd all want to know as soon as possible, wouldn't we? and the member wouldn't be able to post the info her/himself, so we depend on each other to spread the word.

We can use this topic to make the basic announcement and offer to be a clearinghouse for more detailed informatoin. if the member who's ill has a diary, the announcer could also add details there and provide a link in the announcement.

As some of you know Sheila Elaine went into the hospital this morning for knee repacement surgery. Her surgery was scheduled for 7:30 am her time this morning.
I don't expect to hear anything for a few days but if I do I will post it here. She is hoping to have her son's laptop or access to one at the hosp. and rehab so she can email me when she feels up to it.
I know we all pray for her and wish her well. She has a diary in the diary section so you can leave her messages or you can email or pm me for her address and I will send it to you. She would rather i not post it on the general board for privacy reasons.
I know she would appreciate any cards or messages while she recuperates. She will be going into rehab for 10 days after she is out of the hospital. So she will be recovering for about 2 weeks or so.
Thanks everyone! Rhonda
