Only because we had no reason to, my ex and I hadn't spoken for at least 15 years. Still, it was an arrow thru my heart when I heard he had cancer and was taking chemotherapy. I sent him a quilt and my son said he took it to every treatment. A year later we met at my son's wedding and I asked him if I could give him a hug. He and other family members were talking out on the patio and I heard, "I knew she didn't hate me cause she sent me a quilt". My old friend, Walter Swan, always said, 'Be Kind".
