Hi Judy,
I am glad you had your surgery and that you are being moved out of ICU. I have so been thinking of you, and I am glad that your cardiac problems were detected early, so it could be fixed. Sending you many, many hugs, and soooooooooo hope you'll be up and about very soon.

Hi Judy,
You are going to feel so much better once your heart starts working correctly and your incision/ribs are healed. You will want to surf with Ricochet!!

Yes, the worst is over, you are on the upswing now. My husband had triple bypass surgery last year at this time and he thought he'd never get thru it. We just celebrated his one year anniversary of the surgery and he is feeling great! Blessings to you....God holds you close.

Good Evening, Judy!
I pray that you will soon be in your own room with a window where the sun will come shining through just for you! Whoever is doing the updates on the Ricochet FB page is doing a GREAT job! Funny stuff! Just got my own computer back. My husband had it for the weekend while he went out of town to see his sister who was in a serious car accident. She is still on the vent and her recovery will take MONTHS but we are so thankful she is still here with us.
I am praising God today that your surgery went WELL and that you have a brand new VALVE!!! Do you have a sweet teddy bear on your chest? My FIL had one. He likes to be a tough guy so I made sure to get a picture of him with the teddy bear!
" May God be merciful and bless us. May his face shine with favor upon us. May your ways be known throughout the Earth, your saving power among people everywhere." Psalm 67:1-2

Over the weekend my sis in law was in a serious car accident; thankfully we are gearing up for her recovery instead of planning a funeral. She is also on a vent and quite uncomfortable. Please tell Judy we are so proud of her being a fighter!! We will continue to pray for Judy.

Dear Lisa,
Thank you for the March 2 journal update. It's so very kind of you that you're able to take the time to keep all of us devoted followers of Judy, Ricochet and Rina posted. I think I speak on behalf of everyone when I say thank you so very much!!
I pray Judy is resting comfortably. Judy is truly an angel walking amongst us. For now, that previous angel deserves to sleep in peace without pain.
I'm sure you're always there being her advocate and voice.
I pray our Lord continues to lift up His beloved daughter Judy in healing.
You did it, Judy! I know you're hanging in there! Sending all my love and prayers your way.
God bless you always!
