Hi everyone .... I joined and introduced myself in Aug of 2010 .... I love this site and I love the careing people here .... I was diagonised with non hodgkins lymphoma in 2008 and have been taking chemo of one sort or another since then.... in Dec of 2010 we thought the chemo had done the trick and remission was good then about a month ago the tumor in my neck decided it would come back .... for 3 weeks every day I have had radiation in my neck ..... it isnt fun and it wears me out .... but sitting here looking at the beautiful quilts is soothing
thank you all for your careing ways and your beautiful quilts.....
with Gods help I will lick this ...... thanks everyone
I was just notified that my post was moved to introductions lol so I am reintroduceing myself

Hope you feel better soon. My prayers go out to you. I take pictures as I like to look how I have progressed thru the years.

God bless you and help you make it through this period of treatments. I hope everything turns out well for you. Smart idea for the screen saver.

Dear Crazy Quiltin Robin,

What a wonderful idea! If I were more technologically savvy, I'd do the same. Instead, I save my favorite ones as bookmarks, which I hope can contain an endless stream of quilts since I LOVE the ones I see here!

My prayers are with you for the success of the chemo and for your complete recovery. And so it is.

Slideshow on the computer? Great idea. I have photos gleaned from webshots website for my 'wall paper' that does a slideshow right now. Hmmm gonna have to consider adding quilt photos too.

I have for a couple of years now been saving pix from quilts found online and put into a 'to do' computer file
