  • UPDATE FROM LINDA

    Monday, November 9, 2009 | A Tragic story

     
    LATEST FROM LINDA BUTTERFLY:     9:30 PM.
    Dad was taken off the ventilator yesterday,
    But became too distressed,
    So the coma has been induced again,
    to give him some rest,
    I am going to see him again in one hours time,
    I will tell him,
    There are many praying for his recovery,
    .
    Linda Butterfly.
