Frankie’s Friends helped Idgie receive emergency surgery for a cruciate ligament and meniscus repair. This is a note from Idgie’s family. “ldgie has been with me through many challenges to my own health. Her gentle, adventurous spirit has helped me heal and given me hope. I wish she could be around forever, but I know she won’t be. So I want to make each day of her life special. With this surgery, she can get back the things that bring her joy- letting her lead the way on our long walks, getting lost in the woods together, and exploring new places when we travel. I am so deeply grateful for your help in giving her this gift. ” — Idgie's Family Comment
