I got in touch with her back in Feb., I will try again...maybe I can get an update from Cap? But I know she expressed how difficult this was for him too obviously. I know last time she wrote me things were not going well for her. She told me not to worry about her...and expressed how much she cared about all of us. She said some people have yrs ahead of them and others don't. She said she had to accept that and hold tightly to her brothers and sisters and let God carry her home. She also expressed she got teary eye'd when she thought of all of us...she loves us all so much. (She gave me permission to share this with you...just wanted all to know I'm not saying anything out of confidence.)

For all of you that know Vicky she has such a big heart and is one of the most compassionate and caring people I've met. We shared PM's and she is such an awesome lady...not a day goes by I don't think of her. Always there to advise, support or just add comfort to anyone in need. I pray she is ok...but the last time we spoke things just weren't good. If I hear from her I'll let you all know.
