Date: 2008-09-27 12:32 am (UTC)there are so many things I would like to say to you, or just chat about, but for now I will send lots of psychic love hugs and support from the Pilbara...Especially this fri, Oct 3rd. Do you have an address for the Palliative Care Centre? I would like to send a donation.
