[NFBWATlk] Maria Bradford in the hospital

[Lauren Merryfield]

Hi, Marcy,
I am sorry to hear this. Maria has been through so much. On the Seattle Zoom holiday party, she sounded like she was not well. I send my prayers for her! If you have the opportunity, can you please tell Maria that I am thinking of her and praying for her. She is one of my very favorite people!

Tell her Merry Christmas and happy other holidays, too.

And the same for all of you!

Maria and I were room mates two different times; once at National and I forget right now if the second time was at National or State convention. So she is so very special to me. 

Thanks,
Lauren 
❤❤❤ for Maria

I wanted to let everyone know that Maria Bradford is in the hospital with COVID. She gave her permission for me to post this. She has had the virus since early December. She went to the hospital last Thursday. I have spoken with her twice. Tonight she was more alert but she is very ill.

Maria told me to tell everyone two things. First, she wants you to contact your doctor right away if you have the virus and start to feel worse. At first it just felt like a symptoms of a cold, then she started to feel a little better and then, she said, it hit her whole body very hard. Second, she wanted to wish all who are celebrating a Merry Christmas.

 Even now she thinks about and asks about others. That is Maria. She is a smart and kind person and a long-time Federationist. 

She does have her phone with her. I’m not posting the number since I didn’t ask permission to do that but if you have it you can call her. Due to COVID restrictions on visitors the hospital has been inundated with calls so they are only allowing one person to get updates from nursing staff. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. I will post updates. 

Marci
