Hello, this is Terri Pryde, Katherine's mother. The last thing she did before falling asleep was to forbid me from writing an embarrassing note to everyone just because I know that she'll be out for a while.

I would just like to say thank you, on behalf of both her father and myself, for all of the support, thoughts, gifts and well-wishes. We've gotten to know a few of you over the past four days, and even though Kitty doesn't remember most of it, I'm sure she also appreciates the time that many of you have spent visiting and leaving messages.

Thank you.
