I sent her a prayer shawl that I just finished crocheting and a card over the weekend. Please keep up to date on how she is doing.

No worries if anyone mailed to the first room #. I called the hospital. All mail moves to them no matter what room and even when they leave if they get mail, it's gets to them!

Her newest room number is 145A. Connie says they move people all the time and no problems, they will get her any mail she receives.

 Darlene Sept 19
I just got off the phone from talking with Darlene. Yes, they do have electricity at the hospital. She sounded good and really perked up when I told her who I was. She is still in so much pain and she said they put the brace back on her knee which she does not like. The food is okay she said there is just some things she does not eat. She said to thank everyone for the cards, clothes, flowers etc. it means so much to her all the mail. She truly does enjoy all the cards and letters.
Her daughter took a real cute and sweet photo of Darlene when she visited and I ask if I could share it with all of you and she said yes. She joked and said the next time her daughter takes a picture she is going to cover her face. I told her this was a good photo as she was smiling.
So I will pull it up and post it.
Big Hugs,
Debbie

Thank you Debbie, for your update and for your call to her. She definitely is wonderful at encouraging and lifting me up . . and praying for me.
I just wish I was closer and more able to help out. Sent a card today to her at the hospital, had sent one earlier to her P.O. Box. I wonder if she is getting that mail.
Praying for her!

Finally got a card made out and wrote her a Letter. I had thought about doing a prayer shawl for her...so I am Happy to see someone
else already sent her one. Way to go Marcy!! I have met Marlene in person and I can say that is an Adorable picture of her. She looks
just like that...minus the flowers and balloon. LOL I must say that leg brace looks like it would be really uncomfortable! Debbie did
she tell you how long she will be there. And did I also hear correctly that she has something else that needs done to her body
after this ordeal???
Thanks for the update all!!!
Love and Hugs,
Peggy

Yes, she will be there until her total knee replacement, so it will be a few more weeks.
It is difficult because she has no family close.
Big Hugs,
Debbie

Debbie, thank you for sharing all of this information. Does she like magazines? If so what kind? I am getting a card out to her tomorrow. I have been praying for her and our church has also been praying for her.

I am sending 2 long-stitch needlepoint projects - 2 farm-related pictures. They will go quickly and keep her busy and hopefully keep her mind off her knee while she works on them.

I also sent needlepoint; an inspirational one. Needlepoint is relaxing and therapeutic.

Farmgirls are the best. Darlene will be so happy with all her mail full of love.
She does enjoy magazines, I have sent her some as well, she enjoys all magazines.

Thank-you Debbie for the latest update and photo of Darlene. It was good to see her smiling and know that she is hanging in there. I was also glad to hear that the knee surgery will be coming in a few weeks so that she can move on and get rid of so much pain and be able to start standing and using a walker to begin getting around. She has been a trooper through all of this and I so happy to know that our Farmgirl mail is getting to her and brightening her days.

I sent Darlene a box of 20 blank greeting cards and 30 Forever stamps on Amazon Prime. Yes, Amazon has US stamps. I thought she might like to reach out to family and friends.
