    I have some squares - I always think I need to send LOTS.   I have 25.  Want me to send them or wait and do more? 

    Madison, the story of Hannah just breaks your heart.  I think she described it wonderfully when she said that she was a child but felt grown up too because of her BC.  When you saw her with the afghan, it just proves how special they are to those that receive them.

    A big thank you to all that keep this project going.  You're the BEST. 

    Our DD and g-daughters were home.  She was so thankful that you remembered Richard with one and talked about how beautiful it was.  Wanted you to know she thinks you are all some very special ladies.

    You ladies never cease to amaze me.  My DH Bill called me at work today and told me a package arrived from Madison with his name on it.  I told him to open it and he was speechless - inside was you guessed it - a hugaphan!!  He wanted me to let you all know he is forever grateful and thanks you all.  He will log on this weeekend to thank you himself when he is feeling better ( he had round 4 this week).

    As for me - I think you ladies all ready know how I feel!!! I love you all!!!

     Here he is wrapped in hugs -

    Val,

    I'm thrilled that Bill got his hug!!  He is a special guy and you have a very handsome fellow there.

    Hope he has himself wrapped in it as it is a bit on the cool side and very damp and raining here - think you have the same.

    Give Bill a hug from all of us - Brenda

    Ladies-

    Thank you for the hugahan! It was a cold and rainy night last night and it really came in handy. That picture that Valerie took of me really isn't me but my evil twin Benji. Anyway, I often steal hers and no longer have to since I now have my own. Your remarkable generosity will never be forgotten. I am currently dealing with the side effects of chemo which all of you are all too familiar with and after 9 years of dealing with this disease I can truthfully say I have had enough. Thank you again for thinking of me.

    Bill

    dreamwriter...... I can send you money to forward it on if you need me to. 

    Bill & Val, I am always so happy to see a box of hugs arrive.  They always seem to arrive on a day when they are so needed.

    I have a picture of Neesie's hubby Fred and his afghan somewhere.  I'll have to find it and post it.

    We couldn't continue to do this without each and everyone of you.

    Thanks so much.

    Hugs & Prayers

    Oh boy, I am crying too now.  Glad to see these hugaghans going to such beautiful, deserving people.  I don't know Bill but I hope and pray all is well with him and he looks like he's wrapped in all the love we all send. 

    Have a great weekend.

     Hugs, Jackie

    Lucy - you don't need a bunch to send honey.  I started out mailing them in large envelopes.  So happy you are joining us,. 

    MB and I are visiting Madison in Louisiana.  We bordered squares last night and are putting together an afghan for a person while we are here.

    I'm here for crochet lessons.  LOL

     Big hugs!

    Liz
