I will pray for both Bobbi and you today.
For Bobbi I pray that she gets the pain relief and care that she has so desperately needed for such a long time.
For you I pray that your kindness and goodness be rewarded many times over. Thank you for helping her.
Wishing you painfree moments, hours and days.
