Dear Jean,
this Annie is so wonderfully courageous...pls know that when things are
placed in priority sequence with one thing at a time, one day at a time,
her progress to wellness will be less fearful, stressless and more
concentrating. So she will understand what she need to know and her
great inner wisdom will guide her.
God Bless and our very best to Annie
your friends
marty and Barb
