Hi all,
What wonderful stories.......tears at bedtime here!!!
Here is my story... I have made quilts for all the grandchildren - I try to get them made as soon as they are born, but don't always succeed - at times they have been one or two before they got theirs. C.J. my youngest grandson was born with a Chairi malformation... His is very serious and he has had two major brain surgeries, both before he was four.... He is five now. Before going into hospital for his last surgery, he refused to go to the hospital without his Gaga (that is what he calls me) quilt. He made such a fuss that they allowed him to take it into the operating theatre with him. Being so far away from my daughter and grandchildren (they live over there with you all in the USA) is terribly difficult for me... But knowing that the quilt I made C.J. gave him some comfort and security at such a difficult time gave me some solace.
I miss is them all so much.
Hugs
