Update on Lilly

The vets office called me today and were very surprised that Lilly's bloodwork came back good. So tomorrow she will be put to sleep and the lumps removed. He said instead of putting her to sleep twice, once for the biopsy and again to remove the lumps, he was just going to do it all at one time.

 Then he will send off to see if it is cancer. He is almost sure that it is, due to the lumps being so hard and growing at a rapid rate. The one lump is so big that it seems to be interfering with her swallowing.

  Pray that she makes it alright through the surgery and has a full recovery. I want to thank each and everyone of you for being so caring and for your words of encouragement. And thank you for your prayers for her and me!!

  I love my blogging friends, you have been my rock and support through this. Love You, Lecia

Please Pray fior Lilly

  I know some people will laugh but please pray for my dog Lilly. We  have had for 12 years and I just fouud

 out that she has cancer. Please pray that she won't have to suffer.

She has two large lumps growing agressively under her neck. I took her to the vet yesterday and he did

bloodwork. He needs to wait for the results but is afraid that it is wrapped around her thyroid.

  I don't want to part with her, but know it is coming to that, I love her like she is one of my kids.

 She is still eating and drinking and playing for now.

Please pray that I make the right decisions concerning her treatment. She is so gentle and just a sweetheart!!

A Few More Bonnets!

I made a few more bonnets today, love the colors. I still need to coffee stain and prim them.

Each time I make one I think now this is my favorite one until I make the next one. He He

I have made enough bonnets for now, so I will move on to a new project, I have ordered some new candle

mat patterns and am anxious to make some of those. Photo's of those to come.

New Bonnets

Since we have gotten snow my business has been slow so I have been making some bonnets. I am making a longer length, which I really like. I made two really heavily grunged bonnets and the others are lightly coffee stained. How do you prefer your bonnets, lightly primmed, heavily primmed or not primed at at???
