It is truly amazing how many folk from all over the World with such a diversity of philosophy, Faith, and perspective can unite in their affection for an irascable ol' Yankee coot... and how I'm blessed to be counted among that number.
In concert with the previously expressed sentiments, be assured of the prayers of another Yankee; not only for healing of the "works", but for wholeness of Soul and spirit as well.
May you experience a supernatural infusion of Light which sets your Soul to singing with renewed power and Joy; the "pipes" can't help but follow!
Peace and Wholeness to ye, captain!
