Just after the holidays my aunt was diagnosed with lung cancer and was not doing well at all. Our entire family was beyond scared and insisted that she get the best care possible. Unfortunately, this meant living half way across the country for many months just to get her first round of tests and treatments. As if being away from her husband (who was back home working to pay the ever-growing stack of medical & travelling bills) during this time wasn't hard enough, she had to reassure her little six year old daughter that she would be home as soon as she could. Getting through the sickness and pain each and every day seemed nearly impossible and yet this woman somehow managed to gather enough strength and courage through it all to do everything in her power to keep her promise to her baby girl that Mommy was not going to die. Watching someone go through this is an unbelievably life altering experience in itself, but watching a little girl make cards for her Mommy wishing for the cancer to "go away" is something that none of us should ever have to experience. OK...now that I'm crying again, I'll get to the point...<br />To help this family through this life-altering journey, many, many people have pulled together to host a benefit in this woman's honor so that her family can focus on helping her through this journey rather than on the ever-growing stack of bills. This bracelet would be, as I said before, BEYOND perfect to give to her at her benefit to remind her how much she is truly loved & supported and to encourage her to NEVER give up hope.<br />As for the quote, I've been struggling to pick the perfect words, I'd have to think about it a bit more, but something on the line of:<br /><br />filled with hope<br />surrounded by love<br />blessed by God<br /><br />. . . always in our hearts<br /><br /><br />You have NO idea how much this bracelet would mean to my aunt to have to remind her each & every day that she is not alone on this journey, even when many miles from her loved ones, and to NEVER give up hope. :)<br /><br />btw...if you did choose us, we could also distribute your business cards at her benefit too :)<br /><br />Thanks for considering us!!! :)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05535910423668802293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8907662145510836575.post-54541764170838715422010-08-12T15:07:34.097-05:002010-08-12T15:07:34.097-05:00I love, LOVE this bracelet!
