We are coming to the end of October the Breast Cancer Awareness month. Unfortunately, we have not come to the end of this disease. Most of us have someone in our lives who has been touched by cancer. We all wonder what we can do to make their journey easy – that is one of the reasons the Hope line of comfort is so important me. Comfort really is the best gift. This year we encouraged women with breast cancer to have those who are loving and caring for them to sign their Hope throw. (A permanent marker works fine) Then everyday, when they do their “surrounding” comfort techniques, they wrap the blanket around themselves, feeling the embrace of the love, prayers, and healing thoughts of those who love them. Letting go, surrendering stress and tension and embracing the power of comfort.
My dear friend Kimberley Blaines’ sister Jammie was diagnosed with breast cancer in June of this year. Jammie is fighting her cancer battle and Kimberley sent me these comments and pictures.
"Jeanelle, Your blanket is a life saver. Whenever, my sister Jammie, gets her chemo, she wraps herself in your Comfort Silkie."
I am humbled to be apart of the healing comfort that every woman who is carrying the burden of this disease deserves. “Until they find a cure, we will comfort.” JT
