Dawn I am sure Dr. Magee will really be touched by your thoughtfulness. You are in my prayers! ❤
Hey Dawn, thanks for your reply. You will do well. God Bless you and keep him with you at all times. He will guide you through this. Let me know how things go when you recover.
Wow!! You are a great crochet gal!! That small stuff would drive me nuts!! Good luck for surgery!! Think of all the crocheting you can get done as you recover. Prayers for all.....Cathy
Dr Kristy MaGee is one lucky woman and you are amazing! Here's hoping surgery went well and you soon can crochet us all some fab dolls!
