Louisiana is more than happy to write to her friend in Alaska, Jenna Aurora, who is currently having some problems. She and Jenna recently had a fight, but Louie is more than willing to forgive Jenna.

Dear Jenna Aurora~
Hey! I am sooo happy to hear from you again! Of COURSE I do forgive you; how could I NOT?? You were angry at me, and I guess you had a right to be because it seemed that I wasn't paying attention to you, and you were having a hard time of it with Michael being gone...but I AM happy to hear that Michael has come to his senses and that you two are going to try to work things out! That is SUPER news! That is what it takes: COMMUNICATION. It helps to talk when one is facing problems!
I have some very good news to share with you regarding Kendra Williams: she IS getting her child from Sri Lanka! It is another little girl, and her name will be America Hope! I don't know how old she is yet, but she IS physically disabled, and she uses crutches for walking! I am so happy for her! This will be Child #15 for her!! Kendra just recently adopted a little blonde-haired beauty with cerebral palsy named Chelsea, and she is so precious!! Now America Hope will soon join the Williams clan!! And speaking of children, we heard from our adoption attourney earlier this morning, and it seems that we may be getting little Janica Kryzstina sooner than we had planned! The adoption has apparently gone through, and Janica is getting ready to come to America! So we will be having another child added as well to our International Family!! I don't know when Janica is coming, but she WILL be our daughter BEFORE Christmas! Oh, God is soo good to us!! GLORY!!
And here's even more good news: Johnny's muscular dystrophy has NOT worsened (much to our surprise and delight!!), and Ronee' sailed through her surgery, and she had another good night! The nurse just called to tell us the news, and I am in such a good mood I could almost start dancing! LOL Johnny is back home with us, and it is so nice to see him playing and acting like the typical little child that he is! But I do miss Ronee'; her laughter and joy rings throughout the house, and when she isn't here, it just isn't the same! I will give Ronee' a big hug when I see her later at the hospital, and I wll give a hug from you to Johnny as well! He will be glad to know that I heard from you; he has been asking about you!
Jenna, you are NOT crazy. You may be depressed, but you are NOT crazy. But I AM happy to know that you are talking to a counselor about your depression and are learning to deal with your anger and bitterness. That is a very good start, and I am so proud of you!! I am happy to know that you also may go to school; there ARE jobs out there for people with serious disabilities..it may be hard to find one close to you, but they ARE out there! My husband looked for nearly two years before he walked into Wal*Mart, and now he has been at Wal*Mart for over two years now, and he just got another raise! He is doing very well, and he loves his job! So there IS hope for you, Jenna! Don't give up!!
How do I get through what, Jenna? Are you talking about raising my superfamily, my working, or the crises that the kids face from time to time? Are you relating to Johnny's (very) recent stay in the hospital, or are you relating to Ronee' 's (very) recent hip surgery? Well, if that is what you mean, I get through these tough times with the help of a very Loving Saviour...He is my Rock, and when times get hard, I lean on Him and rely on Him to get me through. He has never disappointed me, no, not ONCE! I know you may not believe in God, but He is as real as I am to you, and you are to me; and He is NOT a myth! He is the Real Deal, and He has been very good to my family (and to ME)!
Well, sweet Jenna, I am happy to know that things are looking up. Your letter made my day, and I am more than happy to forgive you! I will continue to pray for you, and I will also keep Michael in my prayers! Please tell Michael hello from us, the Sanduskys, and give us a call one day; we'd love to chat with you and Michael!
God bless you both always, and thank you again for writing, Jenna! I love and miss you so much!!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your Tennessee friend, Louisiana Mayrah (soon to be a mama to *53* Miracles!). :D
