There is some sad news to share about our friend Wanda June Hill. I heard from a mutual friend that she had a fall and broke her hip last week. Then yesterday, I received the following Email from Wanda’s daughter, Starla. I am so glad to read that she is doing well following the hip replacement surgery.

She lost her balance 10/30 and fell in her living room on tile floor and broke her femur.
(Spent her 60th wedding anniversary in the hospital- married on Halloween)
They did a hip replacement 11/1
She is doing well.
They will have her up today.
Expect her to be released Monday into a physical therapy unit for extra attention on rehab.
Look for her to be home within 5-8 days.
Thanks,
Starla Hill
Wanda will be in my thoughts and prayers and I am sure of the same from so many of my visitors. She has been such a good friend to me and my appreciation of all of her help is endless. She has also been a good friend to every Elvis fan who has enjoyed her books about her long friendship with Elvis.
I received the below Email from Wanda on the day of her fall. I loved the photo which she sent to me.

One of the most often asked questions about Jesse is if I have more photos of him and if he will release a current photo of himself. I want to show the next to last paragraph in his letter to the Attorney General of MO. This paragraph should explain why there are no current photos being made public.
We are so blessed to have even one photo of Elvis after he left. There are two photos of him which he has confirmed to me: My photo of him with his grandson and the pool house door photo.

I have not been well myself and have been taking a much needed break from the computer. Therefore, please understand that I have not been reading nor responding to very many Emails or messages on Facebook. I am having a bad flare up of the Fibromyalgia and arthritis. Plus just very weary of my workload. Please do not take it personally should you not hear from me for a while.
I will continue to post new items on this page as time and health allows.
I thank everyone for understanding.

My sweet brother, Jesse, called me last night and we had a nice phone visit. He is doing well except for some allergies. He is going to try placing some bamboo charcoal packets in his house to see if that will help. He is hoping to be getting out of the house some also. We spoke of Wanda and how she is doing. As always, his call made me feel better and brightened my day enormously.❤️😀🎼🎶🎵

What a shame!!! I thought that Forbes was more reliable than to print this:
Americans aren’t getting more gullible however – we still don’t believe Elvis is alive or that aliens are secretly living in Las Vegas – but it is simply harder to trust what is or is not true on Facebook and other social media services.

I want to share with everyone the good news that Jesse called me late this afternoon. We had a very nice time chatting. He is doing well other than having to be seeing his Dr. about a bit of upset stomach. I am hoping that this will be something easily treated and that he will be better right away. I was in a lot pain today and his call was the best medicine in the world. Love my big brother so very much.

I have an update on my health issues which have been causing me to be less active on the Internet.
I saw my Dr. yesterday and he did a thorough exam of my knee which has been the most painful issue. He determined that I injured the meniscus with either a small tear or strain. He prescribed some anti-inflammatory gel to apply 4 times a day; ice packs for 3 or 4 times a day; elevating my leg whenever I am sitting. I am trying to work all of this into my day. Because I have no way to elevate my leg when sitting at the computer, I still can’t be on the computer for an extended length of time. Therefore, I won’t be able to be as active on the Internet until I get through this regimen.
The knee pain triggered the flare up of the other Fibromyalgia symptoms…so I am hoping to feel better.
I won’t be gone…still will post when I can and when I have anything to share.
Thanks to everyone for your understanding and patience.

Some time ago I shared a YouTube video by The Spa Guy in which a gentleman named James “Mac” McQueen was interviewed. His interview centered around the fact that he was an employee at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Memphis on August 16, 1977. He was there when the body was brought into the hospital and he owns a piece of the equipment which was used by Dr. Nick and others who attempted to resuscitate the body. I found Mr. McQueen’s interview to be very interesting and I wrote a brief message to him thanking him for sharing his interesting story. Mr. McQueen wrote back to me a few times and I responded to him.
This week I received several Emails from Mr. McQueen updating me on some of his work since we communicated. He has written a book about his life, Elvis in his life, and that day at the hospital. He asks the question “Did Elvis really die?”
I hope to read Mr. McQueen’s book and want to share the information here in order that others may check out the book on Amazon to decide if they would like to buy and read it also.
I thank Mac very much for bringing his book to my attention.
Below is the link to the purchase information for the book on Amazon:

Mr. McQueen has written several songs that he would love for someone to record. I promised that I would post his Christmas song to Elvis here with this article. The lyrics are beautiful! Mr. McQueen would love for a singer to record this song for Elvis before Christmas.
