i have not heard from ada......when i spoke with her last, she told me that the doctors wanted them to take bill off of the ventilator on monday.....i tried calling her last night, but the phone was always busy........so maybe no news is good news? hopefully things may have changed, and she would not have to make a decision........

mark, ada lives in colorado, and i am in michigan...unfortunately my arms don't reach, but we could all pull together and form a HUGE VIRTUAL HUG for her..................she is indeed a good lady, and a dear friend...................as soon as i hear anything, i will let you all know...................

Claudia, please do, when you speak with her, let her know we are ALL pullng for Bill. They are a very important part of our community here, and they are surely in all of our thoghts and prayers. I, too, am in Michigan, so we can start with our arms and reach across the country to form our big hug.;...I'm sure they'll be able to feel it.

Ada, I pray all is well with you and Bill...and that we hear good news next time Claudia posts. Hugs to you both

I can reach quite a long ways! Plus I always have lots of room in my heart for hugs and prayers. I say plenty every night. When I talk to my Mom at night I usually talk about the previous days events and the last few days it has been about my dear forum friends and our many trials and tribulations. I know she hears me and some might think I am nuts for doing it. I really don't give a flying rat's patooty and it makes me feel good!

If my Mom was here she would be baking up a huge care package to send to Ada, because in her words "This is no time for someone to have to worry about cooking"! Amen to that is what I say! So I'm gonna go eat and raise my glass to Ada and Bill's health and pray for a speedy recovery for Bill.

Cheer Up everyone. We cannot help Ada if we are glum!

Much Love! Mark xoxo

i'll join in that cyber-hug too.....i'm worried about ada and wish that i could fix up a casserole or bake a coffeecake or something for her.....i think i would have liked your mom, mark.....i sure like her attitude about helping out when needed.
