In July my dear friend of 54 years had her 80th Birthday and I made her this gift. She has just been diagnosed with cancer and been given 6-8 weeks..I am so very upset with this news, such a terrible disease...I pray she will not suffer too much pain.

sqdancer, what a wonderful thing for you to stitch out for her - I can only imagine what you and she are going through - but you will be doing it together and not many people can have that - for as long as the two of you have had it. I will be praying for your acceptance of God's will for her and her family and you. *4U

I share your grief. My dearest friend passed (by cancer) 3 years ago, ironically, 6 months to the very minute after my Mum, they shared the same birthday. We had been friends for 52 years and I still cry for her..... Hang in there, she will need your strength now more than ever. Meg

sqdancer, I feel just awful for you dear one. You have done a sweet thing in this plaque, your friend will treasure it and so will her family. I have lost many a long term friend in my day and it never gets easier. I will be praying for you and her, both. A sweet flower for you. This is beautiful, who is the designer?

Oh, Squaredancer, the sentiment & the work are lovely! I too have suffered this kind of loss, and no words I can say will make it better for you. Be strong for her, and let your faith give you both the strength you need. I cry with you for the loss, but rejoice that you shared 54 years! What a treasure that is. Great bug hugs, Marji

To keep you all up to date, Phyllis passed away quietly last night. I had spent the day with her and her daughter and had said my goodbyes. I feel she was kept comfortable and didn't suffer to much.
Thank you all for your kind thoughts and flowers..

sqdancer, please accept my sincere condolences - I am so happy for you that you were able to say goodbye and that she was comfortable - they slip away but they never leave us - of coarse you know that - treasure her life and all the wonderful times that you have shared with her all these years. My prayer for you and her family is to accept God's will for her. *4U
