Make lemonade!
It’s a good thing that I like lemons because it would appear that a truckload has been dumped on our doorstep.
My worst fears were realized this morning when I found out that the results of my biopsy were positive. As a result, I will be taking a hiatus from my blog for the next little while Mr. Painted Quilt and I take care of business to get me well again. I don’t exactly know what’s in store for me as yet but I expect I’ll be finding that out in the next little while.
I’m positive and upbeat and I’m in it for the long haul. After all, I have all this fabric and wool just waiting to be transformed into quilts, rugs and other goodies!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 273 of 273Kaaren, everyone has said it all. We will miss your blog everyday. I wish you were near so we could all give you a hug. You know we are as near as an email and if you ever want to talk, just let me know, I will send you my phone number. You are in my prayers.
Dear Kaaren, After scrolling thru 200 wellwishing comments I can only say I agree with every one of them. I can only add my sympathy and wish you and Mr.PQ all the best. If I were in NS today I would come over and give you a big hug.

I just came across your blog. As a cancer survivor I know a little of what you are feeling. What ever the treatment take it one day at a time. One day the treatments will be over. You will start feeling a new normal. I am 8 years out. Even in 8 year treatment has gotten so much better. I will put you on my prayer list. Hope you are back at your blog soon.
Have courage dear Kaaren and take heart that we are all here praying for you.
If you need to talk or yell or scream or laugh or cry just email any or all of us, we'll be here, with you in our thoughts.

I am completely stunned by this news and truly sorry to hear it. I am glad that you shared with us so we can offer our support, having been on the receiving end of many prayers and kind words myself, I know this can make all the difference and truly lifts us up. Please know that I am wishing you all the best as you move forward to wellness. Here's one more hug to add to the many that were already sent.

Kaaren, I have been off the radar for a good long while. I have been reading a my favorite blogs but just mainly lurking. BUT, I just had to let you know that you will be in my thoughts and my constant prayers. Hugs...
Sending lots of prayers to be the "sugar" in your "lemonade". Look for blessings--sometimes they are disguised--but God sends them to help us deal with the heartaches of life.
Prayers and healing thoughts your ways...and wishes for a very speedy recovery.
Look after yourself Karen, I will certainly be thinking of you.
Hello Kaaren
I'm sending positive thoughts to you. Take good care of yourself.
I'm late to the hug-fest, but best wishes on your recovery!
