My Friend...Linda C.

[Janet]

Linda and I have been best friends for over 30 years. She knows me like no one else and loves me anyway. She knows what I want to say and what I'm thinking. I love her so much.

My friend has been in the hospital here for almost 2 weeks. Last night they transferred her to Indianapolis. She's not doing real well and I'm so afraid. I've been waiting to hear from her daughter. She will call as soon as the Drs. tell her something. Without going into a lot of detail...Linda is on oxygen. Her lungs are really bad. Worked in a place and was breathing metal shavings and was a smoker. She usually weighed around 125 to 130. She's less than 100 now. In a lot of pain....gallstones. They ran a lot of tests on her last night to see exactly what else is going on and her bowels are blocked.

She needs surgery, but there is a chance she won't make it. I'm so afraid...I'm so sick. I don't know what I will do if something happens to her. I asked God a long time ago to give me some of her health problems so that she may feel better, but he has other plans. I just pray those plans are not to take her yet. I still want and need her and I honestly don't know what I'll do. Please keep Linda in your prayers...she needs them so bad.
