This is my first visit, but won’t be my last, to your blog. I just happen to click on your name on Librivox.org after checking the spelling for a review I am writing on Room with a View that you read. I am constantly surprised when I find a reader on Librivox and see that we have so much in common. I am also a knitter and on Ravelry.com, I used to live in San Diego, and I love Librivox.

I am sorry to read about your illness and hope that all the new aids you are getting will make life as comfortable as possible.

I will have to go through and check out all your knitting projects and also download more of the books that you have read. Thanks for taking the time to make these classics available. I truly love the whole concept of Librivox.org. Simply brilliant!

Sorry it took me so long to ok your comments — my blog decided to stop emailing me about them!

Thanks for all your kinds words and warm thoughts. It means a lot to me that you took the time to post here. I’ve been on the Tyvaso for a week now, and it’s not THAT bad. I’ll write another post soon and tell you all about it.

Carolyn, thank you so much for the book recommendations! I’m not familiar with either author. I’ve asked my library to send me “Summer Green”, “The Noble Doll”, and “Cottage on Bantry Bay” :)

My 45-year-old niece just died from neglected PH. Do whatever you have to. It’s unfair and massively inconvenient, but still. God bless you.

I am sorry to hear about your PH, and wanted to let you know how much we appreciate you. I found you on LibriVox last fall when I listened to your reading of “The Secret Garden” and thoroughly enjoyed it. Since then my kids and I have been working our way through the books on your webpage. Our whole family loves to both listen to and read stories aloud. You have a beautiful knack for it and your story selections are great.

You probably know of the following authors/books, but if they are new to you I think you will like them. We really enjoy Elizabeth Coatsworth; I think “Houseboat Summer” is our favorite. We also like Hilda van Stockum, especially the books about Fancie and Pegeen (Bantry Bay series).

We’ll be thinking of you and hope you feel better SOON.

Respectfully,
Carolyn

I so appreciate your readings. I tried the mechanical voice on my kindle, but as might guess — yuck.

So thank you very much and know I am wishing you well.

Beth D.

Hi Kara,

Thanks for adding me as your “youtube friend” … I am very selective so I know you are duly honored! ;) lol

We have a symbiotic relationship, you love to read stories and I love to listen … I don’t purr though! :P

Kara, I hope you are feeling better!!!

Chris

So sorry to hear of your illness. I wish you well.
Also, I have wanted to thank you for your work with audio books. I find your voice so very clear and pleasant, giving me tremendous pleasure in my listening to the beautiful Jane Austen novels. Thank you most kindly for your volunteerism.

I went and checked your links and just watched “The Little Engine that Could” – I am still smiling so much!!! I left you a comment there! ;)

:D

We certainly found that blogging about health issues helped us and also seems to have helped others in similar situations to ours. May it be so with you too. I do hope that this new treatment helps you feel stronger.
