Dear Rhonda,
Oh, Loving, i wish I could just put my arms around you and comfort
you. I know exactly where you are coming from.
This is so hard for you, but Jesus will see you through it, and I
really can relate to the worry, as well.
Tears aren't bad, either.
I will keep your Dad in my prayers, and you and Ben, also.
Thanks much.
Many Blessings,
Pat Ferguson
