That is a gorgeous quilt, I am sure the young lady will just love it. You & your grand-daughters did a wonderful thing.

Very nice quilt. I'm sure having something like this to hold onto will help her know she isn't alone! Your granddaughters are learning a valuable lesson too. Good Grandma to teach them how to care for people in a special way!

Both points are so very true. You & your DGDs are angels here on earth to do something so nice! And the quilt is beautiful! I'm sure it will bring much comfort to this young lady! I'll keep her in my thoughts & heart!

What a nice idea! I have a grandson who has seizures etc. and it is very distressing.

My thoughts exactly. I used to be very ill like this and doctors tested for brain tumors etc. I kept a food diary to see if it was an allergy/intolerance. I no longer get sick unless I inadvertently eat apples or anything containing apples. It is worth a try to check that out.

Great quilt and what a sweet thing to do! I'm sure she will always treasure the quilt.

Should they find out what is causing her problems, please let us know. I like the quilt you "girls" did for her.

They DO need to get their house checked if they all have health issues. Also, it could be a familial thing that is passed on through generations. A friend in the Pacific Northwest was tested (one blood test) by a naturopath and found that she had allergies to ALL dairy, asparagus, wheat, cane sugar...so it would be worth checking to see if the doctor would pursue that angle. Blessings to you and your grands for caring and helping and blessings to this family.

I spent most of a year and a half in my bedroom with migraines until we realized that I'm intolerant to caffeine. I'm hoping she can figure out what her trigger is soon. It's terrible missing out on life.
