Dear Madonna, My heart aches for you. I know you are in good hands with your sisters. But I am here if you ever need someone to just lean on. I will be praying and thinking of you on Friday. I am having cataract surgery soon and they have scheduled my pre-surgery date for Friday. I do not feel like I can change my plans at this point. But know that I am with you in spirit and I feel your pain. I love you dearly dear cousin, Marcia.
