For a long, long time, especially working as a nurse, I would see someone or hear about someone that could use a prayer. Plus having a very large family and different worries that comes with that, I began writing name(s) on a tiny little piece of paper and putting them in a pretty little pot that had a lid on it. It was amazing how many that little pot held. When I had to quit working because of the TM, I put that little pot on a shelf and started a new one and that one is now full but still seems to hold just one more name. That is where Jude's name went. They are just another way of saying a personal prayer to God.
A funny story...when I was working I had a very wonderful friend and co-worker who had been trying with his wife for many years to have a child. I told him I would put their name in my little prayer pot and low and behold they had triplets so we always laugh about being careful about what is put in the prayer pot....it might turn out triplets!! j -------Original Message------- From: Westgold Date: 12/9/2007 9:17:02 PM To: jrushton Subject: Re: [TMIC] Hi Guys---Jude (Judy) is hospitalised.

I phoned Jude at the hospital this evening. She's in good spirits, but very anxious to have her medical probelms resolved. She asked me to let you all know where she is, and that she is thinking of all of you and sending good wishes. She's in very good spirits. The goal is first, to remove her gall stones. Let's all hope that they are able to remove her stones with a minimally invasive procedure as opposed to a major operation. Pam and I will stay in touch with her and keep you all posted.
