Picking up on another person's comment..I really like the idea of being one of Judy's Prayer Warriors!! Our heart's are with you as you travel through this trying and difficult time.
I'd lie to quote Christopher Robin , speaking to Pooh..."You must remember this; you're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem and smarter than you think."
We adore you, Judy. You truly make this world a better place.
Wishing you ease.
Love, Carin and Gunner

Hi Lisa,
Will say a prayer for her that the breathing tube will be removed today!
How is Ricochet and Rina doing? Please give them a hug for us and one for their Mom, too!
God Bless,

I personally know that the breathing tube is a "pain" but it beats having a trac tube or respirator so it sounds like she is doing very well. I hope the doc's know about her other issues so they can give her something for that tio make it a little more comfortable around her neck. You can get one of those "neck pillows" at most hospital supp;y stores. You could have her brother ask the nurse for one and then it would not be a cost to Judy.
Praying with all her prayer warriors!
Blessings and much love.

Thank you for the update, and please give Ric & Rina a hug too, I know they are wondering where mom is and what's going on. I'm an open heart scrub nurse in Phoenix, so the next couple days are going to be the hardest, but please tell Judy we are all thinking about her.

Judy, you are in my thoughts and prayers. As it turns out, I will be in SD this weekend for a quick trip but you will be in LA. I know God is watching over you for all that you do for others. I feel so blessed to have met you in person at the Dog Walk in Del Mar after corresponding for so long on Facebook. You were meant to be at that surfing event in HB and meet my westie pals, especially Surfer Joey, and for that connection to me and my visit in DM. I know that my prayers, as well as those of so many others, are flooding heavens gates right now! We love you!!!

Judy, I don't know you in the real world, but because of Ricochet and Rina, and their voices, I have come to know how much you see in others and how sensitively you show that you care, and in such wonderfully concrete ways.
So now that you will need care, yourself, for a little while....I hope you will accept a little light shining on you, for a change, and let that light help to heal your beautiful and giving heart.
