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

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.

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.
