On Monday (yes, I know this is late!) Kim received the most beautiful gift she has ever had.
Sara R and Winglion worked for weeks, with no thought for themselves, filled with determination and love for a woman they had never met except through my own inadequate attempts to describe her here, on a quilt from this incredible, stunning, heartwarming, beautiful, amazing community.
When I post here, the words "Thank you" are never far from my lips. I have thanked you for advice, I have thanked you for support, I have thanked you (far, far too often) for donations.
This thank you is an order of magnitude deeper, wider, taller, greater. This thank you comes from a place that we didn't even know we had. This is a thank you from the depths of our souls, that a simple, incredible gift, from two ladies of extraordinary talent and incredible generosity of spirit would be given to us.
Kim loves it. She adores it. She will bring it proudly to chemo to keep her warm during the treatment (and, she says with a twinkle, to make everyone else in her group jealous!)
Words always fail me these days. I always was able to express myself, but since Kim's diagnosis, and this amazing place' s support and love, I seem to have lost my words.
And so I am lost for words again, except to say Thank you, Sara; Thank you, winglion.
You are extraordinary people, and we are lucky to know you.
Love always
Callum and Kim
