          Sending love and encouragement to Bernadette…hoping she recovers quickly from her procedures. This place continues to inspire me and I’m grateful daily for that.

              Dear Giles, I’m sorry for not being in touch for so long, but I am recovering from a total knee replacement which was more complicated than expected. During the surgery, as they were trying to cut out the old bones, one shattered and in the end, a 1 ½ hour surgery took 4 ½ hours. I spent 3 days in the hospital and then was moved to a skilled nursing center for 2 weeks. I am finally home and am slowly getting caught up on e-mails, tele messages, etc. I know I have said this before, but I am so grateful to you and the other members of the forum for all you have done following Mike’s passing. These past 4 months have been extremely difficult especially with my health issues. It’s hard having Alissa and my grandchildren so far away. Except for my brother and a couple nieces and nephews, I rely on my friends for support. What you have done for me and Mike’s memory are unbelievable. I hope you don’t mind me telling you thank you so much, but I just want you to know how grateful I am. Bernadette

                          It makes me so very happy to see how we touched somebody when she and her son touched us. There is karma in this world and this is proof of it. Love to you Bernadette and please know how much Mike meant to all of us.

                              I just dropped Alissa a note because I had not heard from Bernadette for a while, and I have funds to send here.

                              This was the message I received.

                              *Hi Giles.

                              She had open heart surgery last month to replace a valve. The operation was successful; but the recovery has been slow. My daughter went out to Pittsburgh for three weeks to try to help; but it has been really difficult not having Michael there to take care of her.
                              I will let her know that you are asking about her.
                              Thank you for staying in touch. It means a lot

                                        Hello Giles and All,

                                        I want to let you know that I have to have another surgery on my heart. This will be the third on my heart and sixth overall this year. Every time I think things are going to get better, I am given another challenge to face. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers.

                                        Thank you again for all your kind words and support.

                                        Bernadette
