the latest from Kate:

>>most things of late seem to take so much energy and go so slowly. not complaining, just facing what is--i'm actually glad to be back home. it's just gonna take awhile for me to eventually figure out how this is going impact my normal way of doing things in the long run. last month my surgeon told me this leg may never heal at all or if it does, it won't heal completely--and that has me wondering today (i know i'm a bit slow on getting the entire meaning of whatever is said sometimes). been wondering if that also means longterm or forever severe to moderate pain in that thigh, knee and hip, too. but i do tend to be impatient, as always, and want to move on. i've never known what my hurry was, but it just seems to be me.

thank you for cluing asa in for me. suddenly, i'm getting a bunch
of sweet cards from asa. can't help but smile and feel the love,
caring and kindness in each of them. . . . if you would be so kind,
do ask people to send me their numbers. it's the pits to have a cell
and not the numbers i need in it.

i keep wanting to get back on asa, but my energy levels and my ability
to focus is so limited, temporarily i think/hope.<<

thank you to all who sent her cards!

Thanks, Diane! Between recovering from illness & the hospital & getting
ready for our town's annual V-J Day commemoration, I've not been good about
emailing her more this week. It's hardly surprising things take more energy
after all she's been through and with all the energy her body is putting into
healing! I'll have to be in touch more once I recover from today's
activities.

And a thought to thoe who might be inclined to do so - you might send another
card in 2-3 weeks, to keep enouraging her & to remind her we are still
thinking of her. (note to self to do this.....)
