Hello Helena,I came to your Blog because I clicked on "next Blog". Firstly I see we have our hobbies in common, I love to sew and I also knit. Most of all, I was terribly sad to read about your Mum and wanted to wish her and your family lots of love from England. I love the shawl that you made, I'm sure it is a great comfort to her to have something that was made with your hands and

I understand. My dad had a brain tumor, too. I love that you knit her that gorgeous shawl and I am sure that she wraps herself up in your love and comfort when she wears it.

I am so sorry to hear about your mom. Your lovely shawl will probably make her feel as if you are always there to give her a hug. I just want you to know that I beat cancer 18 yrs ago...I hope the same for your mom. I will keep her in my thoughts.<BR/>Take care, Lise

I came to your blog through Ravelry and am so sorry about your mother. I can't imagine what it must be like to go through such a thing, for both her and your family, but I am sure the shawl and your knitting has brought much comfort.

I am so so sorry to hear about your Mom. I remember how devastated I was when we learned my Hubby had a brain tumor. Fortunately for us it was benign and only left him with no hearing in one ear .. a droopy eyelid ... and poor balance.<BR/>I pray your Mom will come through this just fine. I know the beautiful shawl you knit her will give her tons of comfort.

I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. I've been through a similar situation with my nephew. It's so frustrating when you want to do so much, but there's nothing you can do!
