Judy- I can't even begin to tell you how amazing you are for all you have done! It is truly so great to check on your blog and see how much can be done and how many people can be helped by each of us 'paying it forward' a bit b/c of an experience or person we know. I am so humbled! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I am looking forward to delivering a GIFT OF COMFORT to a dear friend of mine in Boise tomorrow. She has struggled to have children, (going through in vetro about a dozen times now) and sadly, she miscarried yesterday at 12 weeks along. It will be much appreciated, and I will follow up with her response. Thank you!
The other GIFT OF HOPE AND COMFORT is going to my sweet friend who had a premature baby approx. 3 months ago, after being on bed rest since week 14. She struggles with some heart problems as it is, and 2 weeks after giving birth she was diagnosed with uterine cancer. She is cancer free today, but continues to be tested monthly. I know this will be dear to her heart, and I will give an update :)
Thanks again Judy!
