Letter: A very kind word for Crusty

Mr. Waggener,

I meant no harm for Mr. Crusty. I really do hope he is doing ok from his hospital stay. I've seen more than my share of hospitals since my son was almost killed in a vehicle accident September 6, 2006. Then on November 2, 2006, my 75 year old mother, who has a massive, non-cancerous, brain tumor, fell and hurt herself real bad.
