In reply to: Catie 's message, "Neysa the fact that you had a visit with the Pope" on 10:26:46 08/13/07 Mon

After reading through what I'ld written. I want to correct some mistakes.

I stated that Pumpkin Press Publishing House, Shasta, CA, was no longer in business. It is still in business.

When I mentioned calling the Vatican. Then, asking the operator how to meet the Pope. I want to clarify that statement. It is not the telephone operator. It was the Vatican operator at the Vatican switchboard. They are nuns, priests, and brothers.

When I mentioned the nuncio. It is the Papal Nuncio, to the USA, from the Vatican. Instead of the Vatican calling them an ambassador they call them nuncio's. They are bishops or archbishops in the Vaticans diplomatic core.

A few things, I forgot to mention Catie, was how bad my nerves were during the whole process. My stomach was in knots all the time.

I remember that right before the book went to press. I was sent a copy. I had only a week to look at it. It had to be returned by a certain date. Every day I was late returning it, I had to pay $100.00 dollars, a day. ( I returned it in time). I remember I was horrified and upset when I received the copy, because of the mistakes that were in the copy they sent me. Once, I corrected the mistakes they made when typing it. I wouldn't see it again until they sent me the books.

I read all of that in amazement! That is no small feat what you have accomplished in your life! Amazing!! I am sorry you didn't meet Mother Teresa. What an awsome treat that would have been for anyone! But God knows best for all things and has his own reasons. I am sorry that something so good brings you sad memories of your dad. I know he would be so very proud of you today!
