I loved Mary Lou! I grew up with her, older than her, but never missed watching her! I will always love her and pray. Please tell her my friends were from Fairmont, WV. They were Carl and Caroline Smith. He was manager of Equitable Life Insurance Company.❤️🙏🏻

Thank God for your slow but upward recovery. When I heard about your fight for life I was shocked. I was looking forward to your PAs you were doing, so bubbly and and yes cute I fell in love with you again as I remember following you during incredible gymnastics

[smilinwolfette]

🙏🙏🙏🙏 I remember watching her growing up and gave me the love of watching gymnastics. ❤❤

I hope this message can somehow get to Mary Lou. She might want to ask the Dr.s to test her for Alphaone! It’s rare lung disease with the same symptoms of pneumonia. There is no cure, but there is treatment. My Step Dad passed away from it because it was diagnosed too late. I have other family members living with the condition. Prayers this message makes it to her!
