Hello All, For all. I have promised not to injure my friend Jeanne for letting the cat out of the bag re my grandaughter Sarah. At least not until after our Mother's Day Brunch. All kidding aside, I wish I had the time to thank each and every one of you that have offered up that very crucial lifes' blood for "Our Sarah". Who already owes her life to so many friends and strangers alike. Our cup surely does run full. I have read Jeanne's e-mail to all of you. And can think of nothing else to add, except that the catherization to be done on May third is to be able to measure the size of both the pulmonary and aortic valves, as these are "floating" away from the heart and come from a valve and vein bank also given by families in the throes of grief so others, like Our Sarah, can live. We are working very hard to keep a happy face for Our Sarah, but, this is a very serious operation and we may lose her. Prayers are also needed as much as the blood and we ask you to please include Our Sarah in yours for many months to come. We call my grandaughter Our Sarah, as she belongs to all of the people that have given love, prayers, babysitting, valves, blood and money. Also, we thank Ronald McDonald houses, especially those in Sacramento and San Francisco. When you can don't forget to drop you change in the boxes at your local one. You now know, if you didn't before, someone who was helped by them. I request that, if able to drop a get well note to Our Sarah on or after May third and perhaps later when her surgery is done. Please notate on them which mailing list, that way she can thank her "cousins". You can send them in care of me. "Our Sarah" % Ley K.
