    A request

    As I've noticed some members asking for well-wishes, if anyone is of mind, my wifes aunt Debbie is recovering from a very severe surgery to remove a tumor from her bile duct, which had spread into other systems but was caught when it was still very isolated. They will be performing kemo soon. The whole family has been with her during the whole ordeal, to try and help her, her children, to help take the load off to allow her to underdo surgery and then to heal.

    The time I took to help out sadly delayed one of our board members getting the 8 yarder I began for him a few months ago. Now if we can coordinate schedules I can get this to him today or tomorrow I hope. Then I can get it off of my desk so I can stop the temptation to "tinker" with it. You know what I mean, "Maybe this stitch could have been better... is that pleat too wide...." Darn OCD perfectionism!

    NOthing wrong with perfectionism, as long as it is in moderation.

    Hands will be folded in prayer for your wife's aunt, and for your family. Bless you for taking the time to share with us.

    When there is some one very ill in a family, the one thing that I learned recently, is that the family and friends suffer, in many ways, more than the person who is so ill. My thoughts and hopes go out to you all.
