Prayers please
on: October 06, 2014, 04:04:30 AM
I got a call from my mother earlier today.  My grandmother has viral meningitis, and the prognosis isn't good.  :(  Mom is in a bad way over this, and I'm not exactly doing all that well at the moment myself.  If you guys could say a prayer for grandma, it would be appreciated.
There's no such thing as "Too pretty to carry".  There's only "Too pretty NOT to carry"...... >:D
