Perhaps you read outragedinsf’s Monday Night Cancer Club diary last night— he reported on his treatment for prostate cancer and his upcoming radiation treatment, beginning in July. We want to get a community quilt to him before the treatment starts. Time is ticking...we hope you will join us in lending support to him, in blanket form, as he begins this journey to health.
What is a community quilt? It is a quilt filled with loving messages from you, transcribed by me in archival ink onto fabric. My sister and I sew the messages into something warm and colorful, filled with good feeling. Outragedinsf will be able to take the quilt with him to treatment, rest under it at home — maybe he will want to hang it on the wall in triumph once the cancer is gone. It is a gift from you that he will treasure, always.
It takes time and material to make a community quilt and it is a living for me and my sister. If you would like to contribute toward its cost, here is a PayPal link for outragedinsf's quilt — or message me for an address if you prefer a check. $20/message is suggested but no worries if you cannot afford to donate. We still want your message! This is a crowdfunded thing and some always give more to cover messages for those who are short on funds.
Please note, if you leave a quilt message in PayPal rather than in the comments below, please Kos mail me as well to let me know. The way PayPal is now configured, it is easy to miss attached notes.
