Oprah,
I have been a fan of yours from way back,seen you go threw up's and downs just like us regular folks.I have much admiration for you and what you've done and what you are still doing.Please don't quit!!!!! My mother said something to me and it's not what a lot of us would even think about unless we were her age,she just turned 81 Nov.25th.She loves to read more so now than in her younger years. and it's because she's a bit old fashion which is ok to me,but she said she dosen't know all these new stars now she watches the old movies,she hasn't been to a movie theater since I've been born that I know of,and she isn't familiar with these stars. But she can sure tell you about the old ones and it has made me stop and think.We may be like that in our older years.
My point is,my mother is dying of cancer,and their is so much knowledge there and it will be gone someday.How does one retain all that she tells from all those years back..? I also find it quite humerous that now I'm cutting up her food for her like she did for me so many times,and helping her get up or down what ever the occasion might be,and I said something to her about it and her reply was, see I told you what goes around comes around.I'm not sure what my point is but I think it's because I'm 53 and I'll be in her shoes one day,I just hope I can fill them as well as she did.
Girl, keep up all your good faith in what you do you help an awful lot of people even me.
Your True Admirer,
Donna Bell
