prayers for Wendy Wasserstein

The Newsday article reports Wasserstein is hospitalized and "gravely ill." Prayers are needed and here officially offered for this talented force in the New York theater.

This news makes me incredibly sad. Ms. Wasserstein is a gifted playwright and an important voice for women of her generation . Above all she is a very special person. I can only imagine how deeply affected everyone at Spelling Bee is since it was Ms. Wasserstein, who because of having Sarah Saltzberg in her employ as nanny, went to see a show called C-R-E-P-U-S-C-U-L-E- and immediately fell in love with this improvisational gem-- Wendy called her best friend William Finn to see what she thought had the makings of an extraordinary musical---and the rest is Broadway history!!!! She is The Bee's guardian angel--
Let's all pray for a return to good health for Ms. Wasserstein who is loved, respected and appreciated.....

My heart jumped when I read the article title, and I was praying that "Gravely Ill" was the title of her new play. I hope she gets well soon. What a talent.

The Post says she's on life support. This is beyond shocking and tragic. Prayers needed, for miracles. She and her daughter deserve one.

Oh God. Here's hoping they can get her into chemo, and find a bone marrow donor if she needs one.
