You Matter

In my heart I have felt how important it is to let the people around you know that they matter... This quote covers my thoughts. I have felt this for the longest time... and here it is in words,

"You matter because you are you, and you matter until the last moment of your life.”

-Dame Cicely Saunders, founder of the modern hospice movement

Quilt Provides Comfort to a Special Mom

My first Cure Childhood Cancer quilt was personally placed, by a dear friend of mine, into the arms of a mother who's son recently lost his battle with cancer. It is my hope and prayer that the quilt provides her and the members of her family with a rememberance for how much their son's battle touched my life. He won me over. Now let's do more to give childhood cancer the boot.
