Dear Friends and Members. I hope you are all well, having a great summer and looking forward to some cooler weather! I am.
Sadly, we are not ALL having a great summer. Life is full of complications and Linda Shiflet has run into a substantial one. Linda has been scheduled for a Whipple procedure on September 30th. This complex operation will hopefully offer her relief from painful symptoms and give her a chance for long-term comfort and wellness.
After surgery, Linda will spend one week or more in the Hospital (in Tampa) and then her sister, Jan, will be with her for a bit. After that Linda may need our help with day-to-day things like meals, transportation, companionship and possibly more.
In the meantime, we all know Linda has a gentle faith filled nature and our prayers, light, love and well wishes are welcome. Linda enjoys texts and phone calls and encouragement from us at 832-651-6390. I'll be in touch with updates and perhaps a call to action from us.
I hold each of you near and dear and thank you for your lovingkindness. Hugs
