Wow, What a wonderful beginning after a dismal weekend. In the first two days of the week-- The shelter mailbox had 4 envelopes with dollar bills in them! That made my days!! REALLY. After a long, cold weekend, when checking on several of the 34 hospice kids and finding-- one maore has developed insulinoma, two more are in need of adrenal surger, a heart patient and recovering adrenal kid now has a right side adrenal and due to heart problems won't survive surgery, one of the shelter kids has developed a funky liver condition-- on and on -- it was at best a dismal weekend-- then the mailbox! I would like to say a BIG thank you for the bucks, for the notes, and most of all the heartfelt thoughts. It is a healing thing for a Mom with so many kids to worry about!!!
