Sharon was out of the hospital in 3 days and had trouble and had to go back
in.. She's home and recuperating and hopes to back soon.
I know she appreciates you asking... Glad you are feeling better.

Betty,
Hi. I was wondering about Sharon. How is she doing? By the way I am
getting better. Just a few more weeks and should be in tip top shape.
