I'm sorry to hear of the difficult time your family is going through, as horrific as it is for your sill, it's also a difficult time for those of you who love her. Your quilt shows how much you care, she will feel your love. I will keep all of you in my prayers. Here is a (((hug))) for you, just for being so thoughtful.

We are very lucky here in the Uk as once you turn 50 you get to have a mammogram every 3 years on the National Health. Unfortunately last time I had mine the nurse told me a large percentage of women do not bother to turn up for their appointment. How silly is that. Once you are 70 you do not get a recall, but are still able to have the mammogram as long as you ask for it. I do.
Thoughts are with your SIL and family

What a beautiful quilt. Bless her heart. She does have a lot to deal with. I sure she will enjoy this quilt, knowing the love you put into it.

My oldest sister has breast cancer that has now metastasized to her lungs. I am in the process of making her a quilt, that I had started many years ago. I've been "away" from my sewing/quilting for years. I allowed life to get in the way. I want to finish Judy's first.

She will feel all the love you put in every stitch. She will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Hugs to you and your sister. Please post the quilt when you are done. I am glad you found this board. There are so many good supportive, knowledgable people here.

Update: SIL was recovering really well. She has the best attitude. She started chemo Thursday. The docs say that she should prepare her self for some nasty side effects. She has a really bad family history and they are taking no chances.
