Yes I Can spoon pendant by Teresa of Maggie Grace CreatesAlthough this has weighed heavily on my mind for the last week, I have, maybe foolishly, refrained from writing about it.
I've needed time to process, I suppose; but now's the time to stop feeling angry and helpless and share with all of you Dear Folk, and ask for your help and support.
My dear friend (who happens to be Sam's girlfriend's mom) and fellow artist, Teresa has kidney cancer. She thought she was struggling with a kidney stone just last week, only to find that there is a huge mass in one kidney, and that she will lose the entire kidney.
I've sat here all week, wondering what I can do for the person who does it all for everyone else.
Fortunately she has other artist/blogger friends who did more than sit---they created this blog to help Teresa and her family out--- www.HealingMaggieGrace.blogspot.com
I know of your goodness and your generosity, and it's time to call on you to show them.
Please do what you can to help!
MaryAnn and Jen are asking for donations of artwork, gift certificates to your Etsy sites or to other retail establishments, anything appropriate for a raffle which will be held Mother's Day week.There is a link on the blog to a paypal account if you prefer to donate cash.
Teresa has no idea the support she's been to me; she's one of my biggest cheerleaders!
So it's time to return the favor.

sending prayers out to her and going to check out the site.
I will include you and your friend in my prayers.
As someone who has lived with only one kidney for 7 years now, living with 1 kidney will be ik. It will be the treatment after that will be so hard on your friend. She is so lucky to have you and others to support her.
God bless.
