Here is the card I made for Abby for the month of February - almost forgot to upload it!!
Connie Jo's son, Shane, asked his mom if she could arrange for some hand-made cards to be mailed to his co-worker's daughter. Abby is 15 1/2 years old and her school year has ended because her chemo has begun! Abby had a Wilms tumor removed when she was just 18 months old. This past November 9th, at Children's Hospital in Denver they found a lump in her lower back, an extremely rare (especially in teens) form of cancer. It will be treated aggressively. 4 weeks on chemo, 2 weeks off, 4 weeks on, 2 weeks off, on-going for an entire year. She is also looking at surgery to remove the mass possibly within 12 weeks. The Teapotters took a teaparty there, but some of us are going to continue to send Abby a card every month to keep her spirits up. If you would like to see the story and/or send Abby a card, see the original party post and scroll down to the destination station for info HERE Abby loves the show, Glee, so I opted to send her a card featuring that. Hope she likes it!
