Oklahomabound Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 One of our shooters at Indian Territory: Its time to rally around one of our own. Plinky (Laura Clinton) is battling a brain tumor - a true fight for her life! She did get some encouraging news yesterday from UCLA. The top surgeon in this field will be consulting with her on the 26th and perform brain surgery on the 31st. So there is hope! Pumpkin Roller says she has been having more bad days than good but talks often about her "Cowboy family" and her great desire to return to shooting with us. She is a firm believer in the power of prayer and says she has a peace withing herself now that God is in control. So - what can we do? 2 things - send prayers up for her full and speedy recovery and mail her get well/thinking of you/miss you cards. Pumpkin Roller says she enjoys getting cards in the mail since she often not up to talking on the phone. Think what that would be like if everyone would send just one or two cards a week until she is better! Here's her address: Laura Clinton 5800 W 520 Pryor, Ok 74361 Thanks pards & pardettes!

Greeenriver SASS #38681 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 In this day of fast paced life, often some of us get so cought up in our own troubles that we forget others are hsving problems, too. I can't write a card now, motor controle is spotty, but please let her know that I do pray for everyone that request prayers here on the wire, and many that do not. Cancer is a desease that affects all of us, the friends and loved ones mostly worse than the paitents. We, the cancer paitents, our fate is in God's hands, the loved ones and friends are the ones that have that helpless feelong of loss, needing to help, wanting to say and do things to help, and the knowing that they cannot make things better no matter how they try. May God take this lovely Lady, and her friends and loved ones, in His Loving Hands, and provide healing and piece to all. What will be is as God intends, and His mercy and Loving care will never leave us, regardless of the outcome. Amen. Greeenriver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oklahomabound Posted February 9, 2011 Author Share Posted February 9, 2011 Here's an update on Plinky: "One of our club members talked to Laura last night for the first time since her surgery. She sounded really good, considering what she's been thru. Her attitude was great. The best news was that she has been discharged from the hospital, and depending on the outcome of some tests this week, she may be cleared to travel back home soon. She already has made it clear that "she will shoot again"! Her drive and attitude should be an inspiration to us all." Thanks for the support and prayers ya'll!
