I wanted to write this today this is such a special site that is near to my heart and I have been on here for a good period of time just as a way of you knowing recently I have had to be off the site moreso than on due to some health issues, there is someone on here that is very dear to so many of us and I could not allow this to go without everyone being aware of this, Mary (Bennett) is a person who has been on here who came to this site close to the same time that I did recently she has had some health issues that have made it difficult for her to be as active on here as much as she would like to be today Thursday October 20, 2011 her husband Gary is entering the hospital and he is having surgery to deal with a roto cuff, he has so many other complication such as Diabetes, heart problems that not long ago required a stint to be placed in order to open the blocked area they are indeed a very special and I just wanted to add this and it is my sincere hope that we all continue to keep them in our thoughts and prayers, he is to remain in the hospital for a couple of days that it if there are no further complications. he we to have the surgery later this morning I believe around 11 a.m. It is my sincere hope that all goes well and that Mary also is blessed with the strength to endure the trauma that goes with being a caregiver. best wishes to all Caringsonbj

I also thought of Lara as you posted this and wish to lift her up as well.
Thank you so very much family. The love here is so wonderful.

Hi guys & gals, I'm at the hospital all alone waiting. They are running way behind, so no surgery yet. Thank you Billy for posting this for me. I tried to send a Q this morning telling all why I haven't been around much. I had to get away for a few minutes as all the ciode blue calls & stroke calls on the intercom. They have a computer you can use. Hard to type on with my fungledup fingers & thumb, but bless you all!!! I mean it. You all keep me going. I can pick out some very precious ones, but theyknow who they are, Than you. Now they are talking about sending him home yet today (night?). Been klong alread & going to be longer,. Glad I remembered my pain pills, but wish I had brought some xanax! Ha! Thank you again. I am keeping in text with sweet lemon so she has my permission to tell all. Love you all...
i hope all goes well, hang in there, sending you and your husband love and prayers from hawaii, take care, helpmehawaii

Thank you Billy!! Let us keep Mary in our thoughts and prayers!!
I am OK, thank you patti and jilly for your good thoughs!!
Let's concentrate on Mary for now, she needs our love and support.
I called her recently and left a message, if she returns my calls/texts I will alert you all. Billy, would you please do the same? Let us know how he is doing?
Also Billy, I thought I'd let you know, tis never a good idea to post anyone's last name on an anonymous website, for we don't know what ne'er do wells are skulking about, no?
Love to all,
Lara
Dearest Billy,
I SO DID NOT MEAN TO BE RUDE ATALL by posting that, just wanted all to know that posting anyone's last name is not a good idea!!!
So sorry if I've offended you good Sir!!
Lara
I have to agree with you Lara. Not a good idea to mention last names or unless the person goes by thier first name, such as yourself, otherwise its the avatar. Hope you feel better soon. Busy day for many of us. ha! time for a cuppa? be well everyone.

Mary if u see this I'm here for u anytime. U were so supportive, and though when I got home I took a break to spend time with family, I am here now. Prayers and love to u all and to mary&hubby! Dixie
