Bonnie update: Note from Charlie

I got a call from Bonnie this afternoon, wishing us all luck in the run tomorrow. She is working on walking all the way around the lake, and thankful for all the benches. She says she is more fatigued than any other post-hospital experience, which is not surprising given what her body has been through. That and lying around in the hospital for 75 days!

Her hair is growing back in, and is white. Bonnie wants to see what it will look like, and then will probably return it, albiet chemically, to it's more natural color. Maybe we should vote on a color- I think she looks lovely in lavender!

Mike and the girls are healthy again and visiting. The girls are enjoying seeing Bonnie outside the hospital, and have been playing in the park near the lake. They will return home Monday, spend Halloween here, and then return to Minneapolis November 2.

Bonnie remains upbeat and optimistic, looking forward to returning home in December- date TBD. She has an inside source in Hollywood giving her the scoop on
TomKat and the Kutchers, but if anyone has any good local gossip, she'd love to hear it! Although she has voicemail in the apartment, the voice you will hear is an automated one. Don't be deterred, leave her a message at 612-929-0629.
