Dear forum friends,

In your charity please pray for my husband, Ron. He has come down with a virus. frown I took him to the doctor in town yesterday. Whenever this happens he needs antibiotics right away because some years ago he had heart valve repair surgery and infections can easily travel to the valve. It is always a serious concern and we appreciate your prayer support. Also pray for me that I don't catch the virus so that I can take good care of him.

In Christ and the Theotokos,


Mary Jo..thanking all who pray.

Dear Mary Jo,

Prayers for Ron's health and for you!

Keep up the Vitamin C intake and wash your hands often, eat lots of vegetables, get fresh air and exersize, and lots of sleep, and you will be fine! wink

(Do the same for Ron too, so that he can get well quickly which is ofcourse very important for him now. I have found that taking echinacea w/vitamin C supplements at the very first trace of a viral infection coming on works miracles as long as you keep up all the other good habits.)

Lots of love in Christ,
Alice

Most Holy Theotokos pray for them!

wash your hands often

And the soap needs to stay on your hands for at least 20 seconds....lets get technical here....want to kill those germs, not just slow them down eek

Throw the kleenex away as soon as it is used! wink

Dear Mary Jo:

I join my prayers for Ron and you!

Amado

P.S. That chicken soup becomes surprisingly delicious, as it is healthful and helpful, when (green, or any variety) pepper leaves are added in.

Amado,

Yes, the chicken soup was delicious. wink Ron's med's are working pretty well. He just vaccumed the carpet, because now I am down with the bug.

Thanks for your prayers for both of us.

Blessings,

Mary Jo

Dear People of prayer, To all of you our heartfelt thanks. We are both over the virus now and leave for Arizona soon. I will not be taking my P.C. with me, just a little mail station which doesn't work for forums. We will return in the spring. So long and may your posts bless and edify one another.

In Christ,

Porter aka Mary Jo smile

Gaudior, who prays St. Nicholas will intercede for you both as you travel
