Amanda, thanks so much and give your mom a big big hug from me, will you? More hospital and surgery on her neck.... Bless her heart, my thouughts and prayers are going out to her and I will keep her in my thoughts.

I will email you privately and you can send me her information. I think it would be safer that way... and too, if anyone else wants that information I can share it with them and you won't have to as I'm sure you are going to be busy.

Again, give her a hug from me along with many thanks. There is no need for her to worry about doing the secret pal thing.
She has done a lot and I'm so appreciative.

Hugs to you both...    mj and benjigirl

I've been given permission to break the secrecy due to special circumstances. MJ, your secret pal is my mother Sharon Britt. She's not good with computers so I often help her check emails and all. She requested you be told because she is facing major surgery next month on the second and is unsure how long she will be unable to communicate. She has a bad disk in her neck and they are doing surgery to replace it. They will first remove a piece of bone from her hip and will then fuse that to her neck column. Then they will replace the bad disk with a plastic one and put in a plastic cage to support her neck more. Then it will all be screwed into place. The doctors say it is dangerous and complicated. So she wanted you to know who she was in case something happened to her. She loves shopping for your packages and cards. Mom shops more for others than herself and always has. She fully intends to continue as long as she can. If it is safe and okay with everyone I have been asked to post her name, address, email and phone number so that anyone in our group can contact her. Any ideas on how we can safely get that info out? She was thrilled that you liked everything. Hope you are well. Take care.

Have A Beautiful Day, Each And Every Day!

You know who you are but I sure don't... Once again you have surprised me with a package full of goodies and a lovely message.

I'm so so sorry that you have had two strokes. My goodness, that is a lot to have to deal with. Glad, though that the physical therapy is helping and I'm sure that most of the memory problems will fade in time. Please do take care.

I love being your pal... sure wish I knew who you are <G> That little shirt you sent for Benji in the cutest thing along with that little collar with the water melon on it.. too cute. The jerky strips will be devoured and enjoyed. As for the list pad, what can I say, I'm always grabbing a pad to keep notes and this will sit right on my desk. I know I could put it on the fridge but I want it beside me.

I will get a picture of Benji in her new shirt and post it here... unless you'd want to send me your email address so we could chat privately.

Again, many many thanks and I'm so glad you are my secret pal.
