Madeline,
Just spent another full weekend at Bonnet being stopped by so many people asking about you and what they can do to help. To which we quickly pull out a card for your website. Hang in there because there's a lot of people counting on you!

Madeline

8/22/2016 05:05:43 pm

Hi Mad & Jim!
Looks like you have adapted to your new home in Pittsburgh 👍😍.
Not surprised with Jim's ability to give Colleen the grand tour of Pittsburgh! He's always had a knack to familiarize himself with wherever you were & then readily share his knowledge with others. Hey ... tour guide in his retirement maybe??😉
Saw you taking your hallway walks!! Keep up the good work, as Richard says, use it or loose it.You certainly are working hard & using all you can to be strong!!
We love you,and the boys , Cait,Bob & I are praying and send both you our best 😘😘😉👍
Love, Pat & Bob🙏😉😍

Madeline
