MESSAGE FROM MARENA: .
Dear Jenny,
Thank you for the lovely testimonial. It brightened my otherwise miserable day. I can no longer sleep laying down. I'm propped up in a sitting posotion with 3 big pillows. If I fall asleep and slump down a bit, I wake up coughing uncontrollably until I have no strength left. It's been like this for the last 4 days. My poor heart just can't take it anymore (the bronchitis and fibrillations are destroying it) So, if you don't hear from me, I'll most probably will have gone to a "better place" and that because of the absence of the lousy finances.
Never mind, don't grieve if you don't hear from me again. You were all wonderful friends, Bless you all...

......Marena.......
"You are my care, my hope and my delight."
Marena profile
Marena urgently needs heart surgery (atrial fibrillation ablation) but it is out of her reach financially. If a wealthy person reads this, please consider sending her the money!

MARENA, otherwise known as 'GROWLING CAT' NEEDS OUR HELP URGENTLY. It would help if you could pass this message on to Marena's friends.

 
Meanwhile, please send Marena and her husband David your love. 
Please pray for her. Pray for a miracle. For healing. For peace.


You might like to light a candle, leave a testimonial or message or comment, send a card, or help with the finances of getting the surgery Marena urgently needs.

I looked into surgery here in Australia but it was still too expensive

Co-Host of Chronic Illness & Pain Support: for friends in need
WHO IS MARENA? Marena is a care2 member and a dear and loyal friend. She speaks several languages, lives in Kuala Lumpur, and cares for dozens of abandoned cats.

Wild Fact About Marena: "I once held up a whole line of cars at a traffic light because a kitten had crawled under the car in front of me. I stopped that car from moving, got under it and retrieved the kitten. Some people thought I was nuts and some smiled. The kitten is now 7 years old and one of my babies"
