Hello Janie,
I hope you are much improved today, I was wondering if you were ok or just
having a little holiday, but Maria has advised us that you are no so good.
Be well assured you have not been forgotten, and I have included you in my
prayers. I can't drop over to visit but please know that I am with you in
spirit. Try to keep your chin up and spirits as high as you can, keep
focused on attaining your aims and goals, and I realize that laughing is not
for you just now, but just try to keep as happy as possible.

Kind Regards from Errol, Queensland Australia. ( where it is around 90
degrees F today and a storm could be in the making very soon).
