      From hollidayddd September 1

      I hope you get better and soon. I will pray for you Diane ---------- Please Heavenly Father help my dear Friend heal her eyesight and regain her sight to the fullest capabilities possible. She needs her sight and would truly enjoy her vision to view all that you have beautifully created her on earth; the mountains, the sky and all of your amazingly designed creatures. She also would enjoy the gift of sight for her family, friends and to read to her grandson. She has been through a lot of physical trials with her eyes. She was vision-less as a child and she would greatly prefer not to go back. Please restore her full gift of sight to the best of her physical abilities. She needs a miracle from you. She needs her hands upon you. I have only know her for a little while but she is a wonderful lady and she has been a great inspiration to me and so many others here on DS. She needs you now and she is scared. Please help our dear friend and put your hand on her back as she lays there. Help restore her eyes, help her to heal and help her to rest comfortably with the knowledge that you are in charge and that you will take care of her. I ask these things so very humbly. AMEN. ------ I hope you get well & soon ;o) Love, -Holliday
