Thank you, Donna and Shelly, for your prayers and well wishes. Fortunately my Mom has had a great life and gets lots of TLC, though she will not walk again as the stroke was just too serious! But, she's well and we enjoy every moment we are with her and she does keep us laughing :-)!! Thanks very much, once again to the both of you, and I hope you and your families are well!
