207. Peggy, how is the family? I am sure they knew that this was coming but wondered
Sat Apr 11, 2015, 07:45 PM
Apr 2015

about their overall condition...

I am pretty sure that with you around they are getting all the support they need and that is so important.

Good that you are on hand to help. Sounds to me like they were prepared for the worst, even tho they hoped for the best...

It is what happens...

And the rest is silence... [View all] CaliforniaPeggy Apr 2015 OP
