The cancer made her sick, but the chemo & radiation made her more sick. It is so hard to watch someone you love go through that and I know the pain you feel right now. The gift you made her is so very beautiful & I know she will love it! My thoughts are with you, your Aunt and your family.

I agree with LeAnn - sometimes words aren't enough. Having been on the receiving end of cancer's wrath way too many times, with it striking out at me; taking both my parents & too, too many others I loved - this gift to your aunt is perfect. So thoughtful & loving. I'm thinking that it might help to make one for yourself - with beads that would help sooth your heart. I'm not sure if she is close to you geographically - but if not, it might help you to have something like that to carry with you during the day. Something that would calm your heart a bit when you feel the texture of the beads & remember her love.

My friends gave me a beautiful blanket when I had surgery for cancer. The blanket came with me to the operating room, and was covering me when I woke up from the surgery. I swear that blanket gave me courage. I'm sure your lovely beads will offer special comfort to your aunt. My thoughts are with you.xxxTraceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05101125460361637560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8970061452216126850.post-54159448541700549282012-10-25T21:44:33.552-04:002012-10-25T21:44:33.552-04:00It's difficult time.

But just let me say from someone who knows the cancer side, anything at all you do will do will make her heart just that much lighter. When I was at my very lowest, those things I could touch and hold in my hands, run my fingers across, eased my burdens in ways that are so very hard to describe. Maybe that's the whole point. Sometimes words are not enough. Giving her a gift of touch in the prayer beads is so heart felt and loving. It will be like wrapping your arms around her in a big ole hug every time she holds them.
