Now that I'm a bit over the shock.... It was really amazing how I had just
received my hug quilt- unpacked and admired that GORGEOUS quilt and then
typed my thank you when mom called. That hug timing was completely
miraculous! But then hug quilts are known for being magical.

Mom had her mammogram about 3 weeks ago. Some suspicious areas showed so
she had some kind of scan- MRI, CT, ultrasound??? The suspicious spots
were still there, so last Friday she had a biopsy- which confirmed it was
breast cancer. This is especially worrying since she had thyroid cancer
about 5 years ago and has had two recurrences of the thyroid cancer since
having the thyroidectomy.

As a side note- her thyroid cancer is a very specific one that is the same
kind the folks in Kosevo (spelling???) got after the accident there. It
seems the US government tested some kind of bomb in Nevada, I believe, in
the late 60's or early 70's and folks downwind in Arizona are popping up
with this specific type of cancer. She received a settlement from the
federal government for her thyroid cancer. Right now she is still too
upset to discuss it, but I wonder if this is the same thyroid cancer that
has metastasized to her breast or if she has an entirely new cancer???

Thank you for the prayers and good thoughts. I may have to drive back to
Arizona to help after her surgery (I am assuming she will need
surgery???)- I just drove there for a visit in August. In the winter this
could be a challenge, but I will NOT fly. Thank goodness my truck is four
wheel drive.....

Piggy-backing, Leslie.
Yes, it was great making a crown - never made one before! It was such an
imaginative idea.
It's wonderful that you have a Hug to chase the 2007 yuks away. Sometimes
we all need that bit of extra care and I'm so glad you have it. They
always seem to hit just the right spot at the right moment. Long may the
Hug magic work.
I do hope your mother will get excellent treatment without delay. What a
real shame that she's been hit by this.

Prayers and good wishes for you both (and your dear Dad).

Leslie, making a crown for you was pure joy. We enjoyed making an 'atta
girl' for you. And Jeanne's right; keep the gooey mascara off of it. We
will be holding your mom close. Polly
