This has been a very challenging year so far. I was sick and missed several months of work. After a biopsy, it was determined I had a rare kidney disease. I'm being treated with massive doses of steroids and so far it seems to be working! I'm able to go to work although I tire easily. Thank you for your prayers...God is listening!
I owe emails and thanks to many people...working on those and hope to make it up to you all.
Cathy in Texas and Judith in the Netherlands...I haven't forgotten you...don't give up on me!
On to stitching news...here is my new project... just started yesterday... I am considering becoming a one at a time stitcher...I'm so unorganized I tend to lose stuff when I go on to another project!

I'm sorry to hear all this, it must be very hard for you! I hope you'll recover well! Your new project is beautiful, happy stitching :)

Dear Cari,
mi dispiace molto apprendere della tua malattia: dev'essere stato un anno molto difficile per te, mi dispiace. Spero che adesso non ci lascerai più e che tornerai a mostrarci i tuoi splendidi lavori.
Ti mando un grande abbraccio dall'Italia e un grosso bacione. Serena.

I haven't been reading many blogs for what seems like "forever" so I am only just reading about your health issues. I hope your treatment is going well, and that you're feeling more normal again. Just wanted to drop you a note and wish you the very best ... albeit so late! {hugs}
