     Louisiana e-mails her friend in Arizona to let her know how she is doing. She also wants her friend to know that she is continuing to lift them up in prayer.

Dear Wyndi Storm~

This won't be long, but I wanted to write to let you know that I haven't forgotten about you.

How is Karla doing? I am sorry to hear she hasn't been doing well in regards to her health. Please let her know that she is being lifted up in prayer. (You are, too.)

I am sorry if I haven't written, but things got out of hand, and now I face this mountain of unanswered e-mail. *YARGG!* Don't worry, though: I have answered a few of them, so at least I am starting to make an effort!

I have had a rough patch lately, but God is bringing me through it. A friend's little girl was kidnaped (and later found murdered; she was only five), and I am dealing with this. I was shocked to hear about what happened, but I sent my friend a funeral bouquet for Daniella (as well as some cash and a sympathy card), to let her know that I care. This family has already been through so much, and I am grieving right along with them.

Besides this, I had a nasty old virus that about did me in, but thankfully, I'm all over it now. I lost a lot of weight as a result, and it was not a pleasant experience! I hope I never get anything like that ever again; once was more than enough! I can thank God that my husband and my children didn't come down with this; that would have been a disaster!

I was off yesterday, because on Monday (or was it Tuesday? LOL) I ended up working a double shift because one of my nurses from OB/GYN is down with the virus. I was supposed to get off at 2:00; I ended up working until 7 that night. By the time I started out to go home, I was beyond exhausted! I was beat!

Well, Wyndi, I am going to stop here. Write back when you can, and know that you and Karla are both in my thoughts!

~Love, your friend in Tennessee, Louie May. :)

Karen, each of your characters is so expressly a part of your whole personality, that you must surely be a dynamo!

I enjoy each and every one of them, and the little nuances that make each special, in his or her own way.

What a beautiful letter...and if you have any doubt to the implications created in your stories...I have felt the loss of that little girl ever since I first read about it.

You're an amazing writer, Lady!
Love&Prayers, Rhonda

Karen,

Karla is fine. Oooops--wrong Karla. :) *Sorry couldn't resist*

Seriously, this is a compassionate letter from a most concerned Mama to a hurting friend. Well done!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
