OT - Thank You From Brooke
Brooke is sending out thank you cards to everyone who has been so kind and
generous to her while she's been ill. However, there are a few people for whom she doesn't have an address, so she asked me to thank every one of those for her. Cheryl, thank you so very much - your gift (re-routed and lost for a while before she found it) was really sweet and thoughtful and she absolutely loves it! I don't know if you knew it, but she can't have her dogs inside the house with her while she's on chemo - her environment has to be kept as sterile as possible - so she is especially appreciative of having a "pet" to pet until the treatment is over! Matt, Tweed, and Judith thank you for the cards - she got such a kick out of getting mail from the UK! Just as I thought, she feels like a rock star and "brags" to her sisters that she is world famous! ; It is really touching to know that there are people in this world who care enough to brighten the day of a sick child. Thank you all so much for doing that! -- Hugs, CatNipped Visit all my masters at: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped/ |

Thank you all so much for doing that! She is very welcome to receive a card from me. I know only too well what it's like to lie in the hospital with a cancer diagnosis and how much it brightens the day to get cards in the mail. I've kept all of mine that the group sent me at the time and I look at them occasionally to remind me of how much people I've never met cared enough to do that. This is a wonderful group. Tweed |

It was my pleasure. It's nice to be thanked as well, Brooke has been brought up with good manners :-) So many people (especially some of the younger generations) are "me, me, me!" and "take, take, take!" - a lot of that is due to the politics of our government leaders, of course :-( -- MatSav |

Sometimes, when you're battling such a scary disease, when you're overwhelmed with the enormity of it all, it helps to know that there are people who are thinking of you, and praying for you - it's makes you feel not quite so all alone any more. And that is priceless! Hugs, CatNipped |
