As of today I can use more 8 inch If anyone can help. I can start edging the other squares in white. I'll Pm you kwoolls. Thanks!

[smith]

got one, maybe two to go in the mail tomorrow.....

[nanmeyers]

Thank you so very much. I just talked to my friend on the phone and she has to start her Chemo treatments the first week in May. She needs to go every other week for 4 one hour treatments.. Then every other week for 4 four hour treatments.....after that some kind of experimental chemo. After those she needs to go everyday for 28 days for radiation treatments.

They already told her she would lose all of her hair, eyelashes and eyebrows after the first chemo treatment.

It's going to be a long road and I would really like to have this finished before she starts treatments.

 

 

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP!!!

[nanmeyers]

This is what I have finished so far. I made 7 of the 12 inch squares in the center and 2 of the eight inch. The others all came from you great gals! I have to add 2 more 8 inch to the top row and 5 to the bottom. If you don't see your square I haven't received them all yet.

The ghan looks lovely!

Thank you for putting this together for your friend.

[nanmeyers]

Thank you Que,

It's really hard to see how it really look on that white background. I'll have to take a picture on my dining room table next time.

[nanmeyers]

Has anyone else sent me squares that I haven't received yet. I'm trying to figure how many I'll have to make for the last row on this ghan. Dobermama I have your 12 inch and one of my 12 inch that I'm making into a pillow. I hope thats ok with you.

[nanmeyers]

Thank you Smith!

 

I got your 2 squares in the mail today. They're beautiful. Now I only have to make 3 8 inch and i can finish this up.

But I do want you to know that I will be praying for your friend and family.

[nanmeyers]

Thanks Sissie....Don't worry I'll catch you next time...this is my first comfortghan. I'm more used to sending out the squares.

[nanmeyers]

All of the squares are joined. I'm starting the border tonight. I'll post pictures as soon as it's finished. I really want to have this and the pillow finished before Thursday. I'll be taking her to an appointment and will give it to her when we get back to her house.

 

 

Thanks again for all of your help!!!

[nanmeyers]

I couldn't have done it without all your help!!!! Thanks again!!

[shana0923]

That is gorgeous! Did I ever send mine? Sad I know but there has been a lot going on here.

[nanmeyers]

No Shana .....but don't worry about it...things have been so hectic in this comfortghan thread. I still owe JoBug a square but haven't been able to get to it yet.

[shana0923]

I am so sorry! My son has went through strep 3 times in the past 2 months and is now teething and we are working on potty training and moved him to his big boy bed in his own room and it has been crazy. I really wanted to send one.

 

Please forgive me...???

[nanmeyers]

Shana ...please don't worry about it. I know where your coming from. This week my oldest granddaughter (15)came down with mono. Her sister ( 10)had an allergic reaction to an insect bite. It's just been crazy!! :loco

I gave to ghan to my girlfriend when she was getting out of my car last Thursday after I had taken her for her appointment to set up her chemo treatments. About a half hour later she called and all she could say was Oh! OH! She is going to write a note to thank you all. She can't believe that people that never met her care. She said she kept reading the tags over and over and couldn't believe where everyone was from.( I did add a tag if you didn't have yours tagged with just your crochetville name and state.) I'm sure you'll be hearing from her soon.

 

Thank you all again!!!!!

[jmccrochet]

I'm so glad she liked it and that she felt the love..

My cousin sent me this email today. I can't say that it works or it doesn't work,but if you check with you doctor before you try it.... it might be worth a try.

 

Checked this out on snopes.com and it says that the status is undermined whether its true or not. Since it does not say its false I think I would consider doing it if I had cancer. I'm passing it on so you can decide for yourself.

 

This may be worth doing, it sure couldn't hurt anything!
