Jesse Gets a Hug...

My sister passed away from cancer last spring. She had fought very hard to be here for the birth of her son's first child. Sadly she wasn't here for the birth of Jesse in August.

My brother in law brought me some of her clothes in the summer. I am using what I can, but wanted to weave three Debbie memory rugs for him, and for my niece and nephew.

I finished two of the rugs on Sunday, just on time to deliver them to my niece and nephew in the city.

I got home yesterday to find this lovely photo in my inbox. Sweet baby Jesse sound asleep under the memory rug, getting a hug from his Grandma Debbie.

My Girl Bean

Two weeks ago we brought Miss Bean to the traveling vet here. We were concerned about her breathing. He examined her and said with confidence that she was in tip top shape for a dog her age.

She had a very bad day Wednesday, she was in considerable pain. After a few calls to our vet in the city, we brought her there early early Thursday morning.

The vet discovered a growth on her thyroid and after further testing it was determined that she has thyroid cancer and it has spread to her lungs. She is home with us, for her last weeks or months. It is such heartbreaking news.

She's the last of our Inuit team.

She's such a good old girl.

My sister Debbie passed away on May 2nd

after a three year battle with cancer.

I miss her.

I was going to write a lot about her,

but can't seem to do it.

She will live long in my heart.
