Vida, what a lovely caring heart you have. Your darling husband deserves a big kiss and hug from you for saying something so sweet, although he does have very good taste. ;)
Thanks - he gets lots of hugs as he is a sweet guy and he has the best taste - he married me :-)
i'd cut him a special deal on the pillowcase and design or message of his dreams. we had a friend who was going through radiation for brain tumors and his daughters made him a special t shirt on the computer each time with horrifying messages for the nurses. It was how he made a scary experience into a more humane, fun - welll, not fun, but some laughs - experience.
He chuckled and said I should embroider his name on a case so he could claim that one. With our luck, someone else with that name would be in line just ahead of us :-). I'm going to try to make something up that will put smiles on everyone's faces when he comes in to the clinic each week.
What a gift for the clinic and your husband wanting a pillowcase made by you. Prayers to you both
Dear Vida, how wonderful of you to do these wonderful pillow cases and also the pet beds etc. for our furry friends. I pray that your husband's treatment goes well and please be assured of my prayers for you and him and also the rest of your family. P.S. Mocha's fur is just beautiful. I love the eye liner!!!!!!!! She has good taste in pillowcases too! Love Chris
Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. Mocha has the most beautiful markings I have ever seen on a cat and everyone that sees her comments on them. We are looking to get her a playmate so she is not so bored while we are at the treatment centre. She is a very energetic kitty and needs lots of playtime.
What a wonderful comment from the husband!!! Will keep you both in prayers, that God will up lift you and make this time easier as He holds you in the Palm of His Hands.
these are beautiful and very special! Hope all goes well for your husband. Tell him frozen is very popular if he likes. LOL!
sounds like your going to have to do some showtime!!! Thanks OK, the frozen pillowcase will be gone as soon as you get it there.LOL!
Lovely work and I hope that all goes well with your husbands chemo. Mocha is a delightful cat and one who knows what is hers
Thanks. Yes, Mocha has a mind of her own and is not afraid to express her opinion :-)
No better compliment from your husband than for him to want to bring home one of the pillow cases that you had made. Very nice selection that you have made, something for everyone. Thank You for doing this act of service. Having been on the receiving end, though not for cancer, I can tell you just how much these types of service mean to the receiver at such a difficult time in their lives. (((Hugs))) as you start this cycle with your husband.
I'm glad to hear you appreciate the service - It's nice to hear. I love doing stuff like this and I also make pet beds and fleece blankets for several animal shelters.
Also, thanks for the Hugs - starting this next phase with hubby will be tough, but we have lots of support from family and friends and are going into this with a positive attitude (and lots of jokes), so we will come out the other end better for it.
Sometimes jokes and laughter are the best we can do at the time, besides tears just make the eyes red and head hurt so I avoid them if possible though other times a good cry will bring some relief. Do whatever you need to to help you make it through the trial. In many ways health trials can be even harder on the family members as they must watch the loved one going through the surgery or treatments and see how difficult things have become on a once strong individual. Be sure to take care of yourself so you can continue helping your husband in the areas he needs help. Sounds like the jokes are exactly what he needs to help his spirits. Be sure to vent laugh cry or whatever you need here, as there are many cuties and plenty of shoulders to lean on as you need.
They are all lovely , it is hard to chose which one I like best. Good luck to your husband, next week. Oh, also very cute cat.
Thanks. I really like this batch (I have made some before). Mocha tried out each pillowcase as I was trimming threads last evening - she sat on each one before giving her approval :-)
