It’s my turn to be a friend | Filed under Friends
It is time for me to do as many have in the past, provide that extra support and encourage others to do so. On Wednesday, July, 19th Karen, one of my special friends needs us to be to provide the support that she is so known to provide as her dad undergoes a cardiac procedure. He will be having a stent placed in one of the more trickier vessels. If I understand it,this is the area of the graft from his heart surgery years ago.
Please keep both Karen and her dad in your thoughts and prayers.
Karen…..just a few thoughts to help hold you close during that difficult time.
Make me strong in spirit,
Courageous in action,
Gentle of heart,
Let me act in wisdom,
Conquer my fear and doubt,
Discover my own hidden gifts,
Meet others with compassion,
Be a source of healing energies,
And face each day with hope and joy.
Please make certain you visit Karen and be as kind to her as you have always been to me.
Thank you my friends. You are the best.
Update:
Just spoke with Karen at 11:52 AM EST and she has received word from her brother that her father has come through the cardiac procedure with the stent placement. There was NO complications and he is doing fine. She will be calling and talking with her dad later today.
Thank you for being the good friends you are and providing the support for Karen and her dad when it was most needed.
As always you Rock.

“Thank you” aren’t big enough words for what I’m feeling now. I am grateful to you for your support, understanding, and never-faultering friendship. You are a kindred spirit and understand everything I’m going through without question. I love you, dear friend. My cup runneth over…:heart:

I will be thinking of him today and hope all goes well. I’ll also take a look at her site.

She’s in my prayers, too, Vickie. And how are YOU doing?

I’m happy to hear that her father came through okay. What a scary thing to have to go through.
I will continue to pray for his health to improve.
