Thanks. There are literally no other words I can say to express how I deeply your support has helped me. The other day my friend's 12yr dd asked me if I was cured. I had to pause a while because that has actually been on my mind a lot. I asked my dh when I am considered a survivor. He said after 5yrs. But once I stop taking the 5yr meds things could come back. So I very kindly explained to the girl that there is no way to really know. I will be watched closely and hopefully it is gone and never comes back. She simply said, "Oh." So I guess the best way to look at all this is that I am surviving every single day, one day at a time. I truly wonder, sorry to say but I think honesty is important amoung friends, that one day I will wake up with another lump and die the next day. It is not a fear that ruins my daily life, but it is a deep down heartfelt wondering that I think will just linger within me. I know many of you here have been in my same shoes and will assure me that life goes on. I know it does. Returning to work after 9months off is going to feel weird. Like I picked up where I left off. Kinda like I took a really long lunch break and now I am back to finish the days work. Like they say, life goes on. And so shall all of us. Again, thanks.

Sharon You are so right. Our quilt auction was last night and I am happy to report that your quilt went for $225 and we raised over $9400 this year. I plan to have pictures posted by the end of the weekend. Things have been so hectic here, that I can't put a time crunch of today on posting. My intent is to scan our quilt book today into a pdf file so that I can hopefully just upload that. If that won't work, then I will have to transfer everything to photobucket and post each individual picture, which I am sure non of you will be disappointed in. I will post as quickly as I can. Lynn

Ladies It has been two weeks from hell, but we are finally moved out of our rental unit and into our new home. I am having quilting withdrawal symptoms, and can't honestly set up my sewing room until the rest of the house is done. I'm hoping that over the Memorial Day weekend, I can get the sewing room set up and get back to quilting. We just got back on-line and I just wanted to let ladies know that I have received several packages the past two weeks with breast cancer/americana blocks/tops in them and want to say THANK YOU! Keep them coming. All of the packages are currently in my sewing room...somewhere with everything else, so I can't list by name right now each package that I have received. But again, THANK YOU! I also just returned from our Board Meeting for Quilt Guild and the blocks are rolling in for EVERYWHERE. We are in north central North Dakota, and blocks are coming in from the east, west and south. This is going to be an exciting year for the quilt raffle to support breast cancer. WOW! Thank you all again. Lynn

Since I have the fabric for it, you can still expect a block from me! Are you still looking for red, white and blue ones as well, or just the pink cancer ones? ~ Kit
