Blake: I am your grandfather's first cousin and a priest in the Episcopal Church. I have been praying for you ever since your Uncle Glen told us you were in the hospital.
Hospitals are wonderful places to help you get well, but they are also scarey and noisey and very confusing at times. I bet you have some nice doctors and nurses. Be sure to give them a smile every so often--smiles really do make them feel good and you too.
We love you and want you home soon. You be sure to pray, too, and ask Jesus to watch out after you. He knows you are there and will help you get well.
Cousin (twice removed) David Wayland
