† THANK YOU  As the song goes “He’s still working on me…”, God is still working in and on me and I am so very thankful!  I am also so thankful for my Good Shepherd friends and family.  There have been so many acts of love and kindness I can’t even list them all.  I still have a way to go but with God, my medical team, and my church family supporting me I’ll get there. ~Karen P.
