A quick update on Neita (my friend who was in the hospital): I want to thank you all for your well wishes for my friend and for the prayers which you have been saying for her. Neita is now out of the hospital, but is in the nursing home for the purpose of rehab and healing. The doctor tells her she will be there for at least 6 to eight weeks, so all continued prayers are appreciated.

Good Night to All and May God Bless!
