Curing Cancer
This is a card from a wonderful artist, Linda, who is teaming up with us to fill the Craft Boutique. As a military family with so many friends overseas at the moment, a card like this means so much to me.
I’m also answering the blog question of the day – if I could cure any disease what would it be. My husband just lost his brother to cancer, he was only 45 years old, and a single parent. The grief is so widespread, his orphaned son, and his mother (my mother-in-law) are in so much pain. I pray they find a way to heal.
I have so many friends who either have or currently are dealing with cancer of a loved one. It seems too prevalent to be true – how can breast cancer really hit 1 in 8 women. That’s staggering – I know 8 women, I know 80 women – will 10 of them be diagnosed? I know there are a lot of horrible diseases out there (AIDS, for one), but if I were granted the opportunity to cure a disease, from my personal experiences, I would start with cancer.

Me too. Its been a hard month for my family. Cancer is horrible.
I’ll be praying for your husband and his brother’s family.
