Thank you, Valda. I felt so sorry for her as she was in so much pain for years! It's hard in the Canadian system to get elective surgeries. Before the pandemic, we had many Canadians coming here for their surgeries. Hugs!
Comment from Suzanna Ray
Dear Helen, I did not know Joy Graham or ever get to read any of her poetry, but I am so glad that she has a friend like you that will remain Loyal and True, through Thick and Thin until she recovers and is writing again.

Comment from Cass Carlton
I corresponded with Joy on a regular basis and was sorry to see she had left FanStory.Would you please convey my very best wishes to her for a swift recovery from her operation and a rapid return to two leggedness.
I remember how some days she told me she dragged herself out of bed
because one of the grandchildren was coming to stay or there had been an arrangement made she wouldn't break "for all the tea in China." Please add my name to the list of "those who care" and let Joy know her Aussie
friend stilll thinks of her and remembers all the lovely chats we had about grandchildren. Molly would be at school by now. I "watched" her grow from a newborn baby to a very pretty toddler with all the possibilities of
being a heart stealer before long. cheers Cass

Oh, yes, I will write on Joy's post on Facebook. She's an avid Facebook user. If you want to correspond with her, and you use Facebook, look up Reen Graham. Thanks for reviewing!
Blessings!
Comment from country ranch writer
I can relate to this and my prayers go out to her and her family. My surgery was postponed because of the Covid and my stroke. So I know what she went through to finally get this done. Soon as I can get clearance I will be back to have mine done this is very kind of you to keep us up to date on our dear friend and yours Joy. Brighter days will be here for her.

I hope her joy is soon restored. It must have been a very painful time for her, waiting for the operation. You are a good friend to those who need our prayers.

Yes, with the socialized medicine, it was very hard to schedule the surgery. My sense of time is probably off and I think she waited 2 years for this surgery. Thanks, LisaMay!
Hugs!

Hello Helen. This is a lovely verse for Joy... and yes, I remember her. I have said a prayer for her recovery and the peace of God to enfold her in both body and spirit. Well done on this lovely piece.

Comment from Mrs. KT
Wonderful news, Helen!
I am so pleased and relieved for Joy as I know she has been in terrible pain. The best news is that hip surgery isn't as unbearable as total knee replacements; I speak from authority!
Rhythmical and just plain wonderful.
Thank you!

Oh, thank you for that information. It sounds like they have made sure not to cut any walking muscles. Knee surgery sounds very painful. Appreciate your sympathetic review, Diane! Hugs!
