I posted somewhere else, and thought I would post here, that the doctors say she will have a long recovery time due to some complications that will come along with the surgery. I wondered if anyone would be interested in sending her a card so that when she gets home, she will have something to look forward to. I have had quite a few responses from another topic line, and so I thought I would try this one too. I am not a quilter, and never could be, but my Mom loves it so we encourage her as much as possible. And she is always talking about somebody who we don't know, and of course it is one of you! LOL
She considers all of you her friends, and that is great.
She is not one to complain about her aches and pains but we as a family know that this is very, very serious. It is going to be hard to keep her under control when she gets home, because she never sits down for very long. She didn't even want to have the surgery until after Easter so she could make dinner. Talked her out of that one. Anyway, if anyone would be interested in sending her a card, please pm me and I will send her address. I will be on later this evening til about 1:00. We have to be at the hospital by 5:30. I would put it on now, but don't know if I am allowed to do that. Thank you so much for reading this post, and if nothing else, please keep her in your prayers tomorrow.
