Oops.... I'm running late!

Dear friends --

If you read my post last month, you know that I've got a big challenge on my hands.  I've spent quite a few days out of the last three weeks getting tests and treatments at MD Anderson Cancer Center -- and getting a tiny bit of good news, too.  Still, I am spending an enormous amount of time just "resting."  And I think I need a bit more rest before I post my blog for this month.  It might not even appear until July 1 -- this particular chemo that I'm on is enormously fatiguing, more than I ever imagined.  I'm hanging in there, though, thankful for the incredible prayers and wishes that many of you have sent my way.  They are all deeply appreciated.

Best wishes -

Sue Garman

  6. I've been praying for you this month. I know the struggle isn't easy. I can only pray that this Wednesday I will also receive some good news. I've actually taken the time to choose fabric for the next quilt for my some and dil, another one of your patterns, Star Crazy. I will be adding two additional borders, flying geese and one that will be made of squares set on the diagonal similar to the one from Stars for a new day. I will be continuing to pray for you and your family.

  12. So glad to hear from you. You have been on my mind so often since I read your May post.Chemo is mostly intensely fatiguing as the anti-emetic drugs take care of the nausea for the most part these days. Just take care of yourself. That is where your efforts need to go. Hugs.

  32. You deserve some good news. You have motivated me to restart Coxcomb Medalion that I started 8 years ago. I'm on month 9. It's like a prayer quilt as I pray for you and Jack as I work on it.
