Please Pray for my Good Friend Joanne & Her Family
Just got a email from Joanne today. More bad news. After loosing her mom in April she just told me that she herself needs a Liver Transplant. But that's not all, either. She just lost her only son Brian 37 on Thurs, May 21st. This woman I have never met but we started out as pen pals back in the early 60's. She is been a good friend to me. My heart goes out to her and her family to. Here is her email she just sent me.
