Red face Gift to a Cancer Patient who definitely needs cheering up.

***
I made this quilt last June and thought I will keep it.
***
Then a friends daughter found a lump in breast, then another in the other side,
then found out she has all the markers for Ovarian Cancer.
***
She is now going through chemo then will have what surgery is necessary for the
breast and then a complete hysterectomy (sp) as a preventative.
***
She has a 13 year old son & an 8 year old son (who is ADHD and epilepsy).
***
She had her grandmother's old quilt at the 1st chemo and I said she needs this more
than I do.
***
This quilt is Pink/Green Falling Charms or Squares (queen) and she definitely needs
something to cheer her up.
***
This is the pic she posted on Facebook thanking me (I forgot make a pic before giving).
***

How kind of you to share your quilt with her. It's pretty and has lots of lovely hand stitches! Praying that they can arrest the cancer and she may live a long life with her children.

That is really a special quilt to give her. I can see you hand quilted the quilt and will be a precious keepsake for her and her family.

My daughter-in-law had the chemo and radiation, both breasts removed, reconstructive surgery, and a complete hysterectomy as a preventive. She suffered, but is doing well now. I am sure your friend has no way of expressing her thanks for your gift. Thank you for your kindness.
