Dear Friends, I would like to let you know before it gets in the papers that I am going into the hospital to have a procedure on my heart.

It’s very new and involves repairing my leaky valve using a clip device, without open heart surgery, so that my heart will function better.

Any prayers you happen to have lying around I would dearly appreciate. I’ll let you know when it’s all over. Love you, Elizabeth

We hope everything goes well and you fell better soon, Elizabeth.
