KT thoughts and prayers needed, please!

My cousin Terry, who is like a sister to me (our mothers were sisters, and we're close in age and even look alike), is very suddenly desperately ill.

Terry always seemed like the healthiest of the cousins, emotionally as well as physically. She's a great sewer, cook, and decorator, and the best gardener I know. Plus she and her husband are tireless volunteers in their community. The two of them, and their daughters, are wonderful people.

I had lunch with them three weeks ago, and she was fine. A week or so later she came down with symptoms that were finally diagnosed as acute liver failure. The doctors have not yet determined the cause.

She's in the ICU of a NYC hospital, awaiting a liver transplant. She called me on Tuesday, and I missed her call because I was walking the dogs. I so regret that! Now she is no longer coherent, and we're praying her liver can hold up until a transplant becomes available. I would appreciate healing thoughts and prayers.

Thank you,

Susan
