Hi Sweet Lady,
You are in my prayers! Your beautiful presence is missed, but we understand your struggles, or as much as we can. Grief can be so debilitating but we are here for you. I pray strength and healing over you. Healing for your body and your spirit. Keep fighting the good fight, and thank you for the update.

Much love,
Rhonda

Thank you, dear Rhonda, for your lovely words and especially your prayers, I am a firm believer in them. I do miss you all, my 2nd family, and can?t wait to get back to some semblance of normality. Love you lots, Sandra xx

I don't know. Can't leave you alone for five minutes. I go off to France and what do I find? You're taking time off in bed.

Seriously though I am pleased to hear you are on the road to recovery. Let me know whe you are home again and we'll have a chat when you feel up to it.

That would be nice, you can do most of the talking though, it wears me out. So you can tell me how your Christmas went.

I got it wrong in my message, I'm on oxygen 24/7 and the nebuliser every 2hours for a strong hit. I will use that lovely sixth star to wish upon. Thanks, Jim.

Dearest Sandra,

I miss our video chats and your warm, gracious presence here on the site. I'm sending you nothing but love and saying prayers for your health and quick return home to your wonderful husband and sons.

Rest up. I know being inactive is not your strong suit, but doing so in the short term gets you what you want for the Big Picture.

Much, much love always,
Rachelle

No, I didn?t expect this at all, John. It?s left me so exhausted, I have no energy left. I just want to get home and start working on getting better. Thank you, my dear friend, for your kind wishes. Love and hugs, Sandra. xxxx

It was a nice surprise to see your name in my message box, Sandra. Your health update is appreciated. I know how much you want to go home. I think that happens to anyone who's been in a hospital. Hopefully, it won't be too long and you will be going home.

Take care of yourself, and we wish you a very healthy and happy 2024, as well. It was good to see you on FanStory. Love and hugs being sent your way, too.

Good morning, Sandra. I am saddened to hear that you are still in the hospital, but I'm glad you felt well enough to send us a note about what you are dealing with and what your challenges are. I will continue to pray for you... not need to respond to me, just get well and come back full strength! Hugs!

Sandra, I know how you feel about being ill forever. I wish you the very best and I hope that you recover quickly and completely soon. It is no fun being in the hospital. I was there for a whole month and July. May God touch you with his hand of love and completely heal your body. Patricia.
