Sleep to the Music for my younger brother. He is fighting lung and brain cancer at the moment. A friend brought it to Ireland from Canada in April and my older brother took it to him on the west coast at the weekend. My brother loves it. I do hope it will give him the love , support and warmth he will need in this battle.

The white embroidery are Celtic gargoyles but someone said they look like angel wings.

Thank you he loves it, It started out as a lap quilt and ended up being a full size quilt that will fit a double bed. I am glad it ended up that size.

We will be thankful for any time we are given. My sister has been wonderful and is his devoted caregiver. I am looking forward to seeing her in October when she comes to visit for my daughters wedding.

Thank you Marian, It is a little bitter sweet this year. My daughter is getting married which will be a joyous time and yet a little sad if we loose my brother. But we will think positive.
