My friend Randy H., who moved out here to LA a few weeks before I did in ’83 has a young daughter in her early 20s named Ashley. An amazing gal, she and her sister have become financially independent by excelling in martial arts and becoming instructors in same. Both are talented artists and are attending Otis Parsons College of Art & Design. Both are also half Japanese.

Ashley was recently diagnosed with “takayasu arteritis“, a condition afflicting mostly Asian women between 15-30 years of age that causes a multitude of severe problems with the aorta. Ashley’s condition did not respond to the steroid treatments and she will be undergoing open heart surgery tomorrow.

Please say a prayer for Ashley, and her family. If you can place her on any prayer lists it would be a big help.

Thank you . . .

A blessed Easter to you and yours,

Okie

With Earth Day falling on Good Friday tomorrow, it will be interesting to see how the main stream media treats each of them.

According to Ed Morrissey at Hot Air, last year Mother Gaia spanked Jesus in the press, “Nearly two thirds of all stories about Easter were negative (22 out of 34) [while] 100 percent of Earth Day stories were positive.”

The MSM – is that where you get YOUR news?
