Thank you for sharing your journey Rita! You are still so frequently on my heart and in my prayers. Please forgive me for not communicating that more often. Sending love and prayers. ❤️

Waiting sucks, and so sorry you got blind-sided!

Your hats are wonderful, and it sounds like we'll still have plenty of winter for their use. It almost makes me want to try to knit one. ;) I will check out McLeod's Daughter as well -- everyone needs something positive these days. Always holding you close in my heart, sweetie, N.

Oh Rita! Your hats are exquisite! Beautiful yarn. May the Lord show you that you, Rita, are FAR more beautiful in His sight. He looks in the heart...your heart which He loves, kisses with His mother love and nurtures as a good Father. He is so pleased with less anxiety! What the world sees is not what He see...a beautiful creation, meant to grace the earth with her unique gifts and expression. Hugs from Rush City! Blessings for our journey! Expectation for our future in His time...He makes us beautiful, so very beautiful. You are beautiful...like the worship song we sing to Him coming back to us and giving peace. You are loved my friend, so loved.

Hi Rita - Remember me? from one of our retreats - my memory sucks now so cannot remember which exactly, as I have been on a few. We did meet once for lunch and went to a presentation together. Anyway, I keep "abreast" LOL of your journey from afar. As you well know, all of us, once or continuously, affected by this disease have struggles. You have amazing strength and I wish heaps of blessings upon you. AND know that my wishes and dreams for you say, F*&K you, cancer!!! Get out of Rita!!! I also have been struggling with a lot and keep close to home and work and school (AARGH - this will be over in May - YIPPEE - never going back to school again). One less hassle, we closed on our home last week and now only own one. We moved from single-family suburban living to almost urban condo living. We moved to Bloomington, about one mile east of the MOA. Thank goodness for underground parking, no shoveling, no raking, no mowing, no everything else that goes along with that. One of the changes I wanted to make since my diagnosis - more creating memories (at least that's what I'm hoping for) than doing the everyday, every weekend drudgery of house and yard work. Now I just need a maid and cook!!! LMAO! My true hope and faith for you is for GOD to lay his hands upon your heart and allow you to breathe deep, exhale slowly, be at ease and peace. Love, hugggggggggggggggzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz and more hugggggggggggggggzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz heaped upon you!!! Barb (bwolff33@gmail.com)

Aww Rita, sorry for this time of waiting in your life. Thank you for the thorough news update, we really appreciate that and continue to pray for you daily!
I love the styles of hats you make. I'd also love to purchase one. They look so comfy and cozy. You have a real talent there!!
We have moved back to North Branch and are loving being closer to family.
Thank you for the suggestion of a new and more importantly positive series to watch. We hardly turn the TV on anymore. God's continued blessings on you!! Love, Tami

Rita you show such courage during your cancer fight. Praying Gods strength and healing for you. God is good all the time❤️🙏🏻

Your "journey" is amazing!!! Keep positive and do just what is necessary and know the Lord is by your side. Cute hats and sure they are warm. We have been watching "Outlander", though sexy, scenery is quite beautiful and a love story at heart!! Keep up the good work!! Hugs Bev
