Sad news. News that probably will keep me from posting for several weeks. I can’t say that for sure.
Those of you who have read my blog for awhile know that my daughter was diagnosed with leukemia just after Thanksgiving in 2021. It’s been a long road for her and she has been very strong through all of it. However, sadly, there is no more care they can give her other than meds to keep her comfortable. Her wish is to come to my house. I’m feeling pretty numb, but trying to work on preparing my house.
So, here is my list from last week:
- Sandwich Pennies From Heaven quilt.–done and finished
- Cut more scraps into squares.–done
- Complete the top that I am making with the Cupcake recipe cards.–at least a start
Here is what I got cut into 5 inch and 2 1/2 inch squares from my scraps this last week.
It’s a slow process using the Cake Mix Recipe cards, but I am enjoying it. I put what I have done on the design wall. You should at least be able to see the pattern I am going for.
I just spent an evening finishing up the Pennies From Heaven quilt. It’s from the Loose Change quilt book. I used my own colors though.
I won’t make a list for this coming week. Only one thing I need to concentrate on and that is my daughter and taking care of her.
I am linking up with the following blogs:
Marsha, I cannot imagine what that is like, and I hope you know we will pray for you and your daughter. How lucky she is to have you – I would want to be at my mother’s house too. Will you have help, are there other family members or neighbors or friends? Praying for you – keep us posted as you have time.
Her best friend is going to come do some shifts so that I can get more sleep and my youngest daughter has also said that she will. I have her 13 yr sit with her if I do have to go somewhere. I wish I could show you the picture of her 5 yr old sleeping with her in the hospital bed right now.
My heart breaks for you. I will be praying for you and your family.
Hugs my dear friend! I have no words to comfort but to let you know that we are all thinking of you over at Wednesday Wait Loss and praying you’ll find the strength for what lies ahead. Right now you have only one thing you need to think about and that’s your daughter. If you need to take your mind off things for a bit, please pop over and visit. On Saturday I have a lovely group on Facebook that answers silly questions throughout the day in order to get to know each other. Please drop by, sip a cup of tea, and get some love and hugs. https://www.facebook.com/groups/QuiltingWithTheInquiringQuilter
