I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all for your sensitivity towards my and my family's situation at the present time. It is hard, but we are coping and things are improving. At least my father's health is somewhat better and he is receiving the treatment he needs. We have a long road ahead with recuperation and then placement in a long-term care facility.
I am so grateful for all of your words of kindness and support. You will never know how important it has been to hear from you, to hear that some of you have been through similar situations and come out the other side okay, or just to know that you sincerely care.
I am truly thankful for you, my friends.
I will try to visit your blogs in the near future. I have been preoccupied, of course and my focus is on things outside the blog-world. In spite of this, I am finding great sources of distraction in your very fine writings and entertainments. I hope to rejoin your collective sometime soon.
Sincerely,
Poetikat (Kat Mortensen)

I'm praying that God will give you peace and strength in this rough time, Kat. You and your family are in my thoughts this week.
Hi Sweet Kat
I'm not sure why, but this post made me cry. It is hard to explain. It is just your gift of seeing the beauty in others that does it for me. Your ability to appreciate and notice, during the hardest of times, that others care about you. You could be so wrapped up in yourself and we'd totally understand. But instead, you are so very good at making others feel good during these times. Not sure if that makes sense but please know that my intentions are good and my thoughts and prayers are with you (even if I can't quite explain what I mean). You are such a selfless person. I keep thinking about what you are going through with your parents. You and I being exactly a decade apart, I watch what you go through knowing my own experiences are just around the corner. I hope for you (and me at the same time) that these difficult times are as beautiful and precious as they are tough and painful. I've been thinking about you a lot lately. I know you are a very private person. I know some people wouldn't understand that since you "blog". ha ha. But you and I know the difference. I know it has probably been difficult to share what is going on with your dad and I just want you to know that we apreciate what you are going through and that you love us enough to share with us. I know it is hard. Okay, maybe I'm just too emotional right now...miss you...praying for you...thinking of you!!!!
All the best with everything - and look after yourself!
You just take care girl and I am happy that things go a little bit better. Bless you and your family
getting my postcards ready sent you an award passed on from Ratmammy enjoy sk
I'm glad to hear things are improving some for you. Difficult decisions ahead for you, but I know The Master will guide your steps and decisions. Be blessed.
I'm glad things are improving. Take care of yourself too.
I am sorry that you are going through this pain at the moment - but having read your profile, feel sure you will get comfort from your faith.
I'd also like to pass on my thanks for the kind words you left for me on Linda's blog comments. That was very sweet of you.
God bless.
