I am one of the lucky ones...just a few more surgeries and radiation treatment to follow and I can put this behind me. At least I'll put that part behind me but not the happiness I've found in crocheting these hats. It brings me such joy.<br /><br />To Sid and Doris...you are my dear friends too! I'm so glad that I could do something that brightened Doris' day. And I'm very happy to hear that she is in remission and doing so well.<br /><br />I've already had some orders this morning thanks to this post. You have awesome readers!<br /><br />Love to you,<br />LisaLisa McGlaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05586141320197189197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-82695589391352633032011-02-15T11:50:29.003-08:002011-02-15T11:50:29.003-08:00I lost my Mom to cancer (not breast cancer though)...I lost my Mom to cancer (not breast cancer though) many years ago. I just lost (in October) my Step-Mom to breast cancer. My Sister-in-Law is a survivor. I don't have anyone that needs a hat right now but I'm ordering one. Lisa can donate both to the clinic.<br />I hope she wins her battle and has a long, beautiful life! Good for her and her wonderful idea to help those in need.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17846082820004153424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-65737665901436597732011-02-15T10:38:07.220-08:002011-02-15T10:38:07.220-08:00I remember when you cussed the day I told you abou...I remember when you cussed the day I told you about Doris' lymphoma. Well, we've been following Lisa's knitting efforts and imagine our surprise when a cap arrived for Doris. It worked wonders and we can' begin to describe the relief a few weeks ago when her oncologist deemed her in 100% remission.<br /><br />So how do you thank Lisa and the others for their efforts. Well, we donated some $ for yarn or other expenses. We've also spread the word at two of Comprehensive Cancer Center's clinics - a bit like telling the choir.<br /><br />But now we can publicly thank Lisa. There can be a positive outcome to the awfulness of cancer and you will get there as well. And Linda, be mad and cuss all you want, but don't forget, more are surviving than ever before, and the caps are gorgeous.<br /><br />Sid GoodmansID g.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15250757473548694966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-44342524013433507282011-02-15T10:23:19.732-08:002011-02-15T10:23:19.732-08:00Cancer is the most insidious, devastating, horribl...Cancer is the most insidious, devastating, horrible disease. It indiscriminantly steals our husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, family, friends, siblings, and worst of all our children! In the effort to survive, the only treatments that have any hope of eliminating this killer from our bodies, are debilitating, toxic, overwhelming drugs and radiation that are often worse than the disease. Yet none of these treatments is guaranteed to be effective. There are millions of dollars being poured into cancer research, but so far, we are no where close to a "cure". No one deserves to be the victim of cancer. It is a nightmare that goes on and on and on, collecting more and more victims, and destroying more and more lives. Someday all that research will find the way to prevent and cure. There's just no way to know if that "someday" will be tomorrow or sometime in the next millenium. In the meanwhile, we mourn those we have lost and treasure those few who have won their fight and reached that nirvana of being "cancer free!"Mellodeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07515414035373189099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4043113139515346307.post-26216474166528921352011-02-15T09:54:04.605-08:002011-02-15T09:54:04.605-08:00As a recipient from a similar program here in MN I...As a recipient from a similar program here in MN I can tell you that these small gifts mean so much. Someone you don't even know cares enough to look out for your welfare even when you can't. What a remarkable individual Lisa is that she saw a need beyond her own and made efforts to make it better for others. <br /><br />Sous-ChefSous-Chefnoreply@blogger.com
