Hi everyone!
Today is a very special post and project I'm sharing.
Most of you know me by now....short and to the point posts and very rarely do I actually post something about my personal life. I'm not one for posting personal matters for attention or airing my laundry for all to see. Today I'm sharing something going on in my life....
A few weeks ago my mommom (grandmother) was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 77. This is the first we have come across breast cancer in our family so it shook us all.
Because of her age, her heart and the medications that she's on, the doctors decided no chemo. She under went a partial mastectomy and began radiation on Wednesday. She will do this 5 times a week for 6 weeks. I'm the one that takes her back and forth and we are already getting into a nice routine. Mommom has been a trooper through the whole thing and her one request was that when she is done we take her to the beach lol.
As for my project....
My mommom wanted to mark on a calendar the countdown to the day she finishes radiation. I told her I could do something better.....
Recipe:
Papers are from stash
30 Boxes & More from My Scrap Chick
Ribbon Shaped Card from The Cutting Cafe
Posy twine from Trendy Twine
Each day when my mommom comes home from radiation starting tomorrow she will pull off a ribbon. Each ribbon has something simple written to her from the family. Jokes and words of encouragement :)
Thank you so much for stopping by today!
Have a fabulous crafty day!
