What a great group you have there Purple!! Its so nice to give that support to Merle, tell her that we know she will beat the cancer when wrapped in all the hugs from that quilt. There are some great facilities in Memphis to deal with it..so I know she will have some real professionals on her side.
I lived in Memphis for 30 yrs. before DH & I retired to Middleton about 6 yrs. ago. Its about 60 mi. E. or halfway between Memphis & Pickwick.
