Hello mommy.
It is hard to believe that it has been 18 years since you left me. I miss you every day.
We are in Pensacola, Florida for a National Sojourners Conference and Encampment.
On February 5, 2024 I will be having total knee replacement surgery (which is my 1st surgery every). I am sort of looking forward to it, but am very nervous.
My traveling will be limited until after May 8, 2024.
Again, I love you very much and miss our talks.

Love your daughter Linda

Happy Heavenly birthday mommy. I sure do miss our talks and your advice.
As John said, I hurt my left knee on August 14, 2023, but it didn't start bothering me until August 18, 2023. Went to hospital ER by ambulance and they said torn ACL & PCL, but since I came home and have seen an orthopedic institute people and have had an X-Ray and an MRI they said a torn meniscus and the ligaments behind my knee are completely gone. I go this Friday October 27, 2023 to see the surgeon and find out when I will be having the surgery. I am not lookin forward to my very first surgery.
We have a few places still to go before the end of the year, so I will tell the surgeon that anytime after the second week of December or the first of the year will work.
I guess you have seen my Cousin Bobby (your nephew). I still can't believe that he is gone. Give my love to all our family.
Have a great Heavenly birthday.
I miss and love you so much mommy.

Love your daughter
