Message from Terri's Aunt

Quilt No. 9


Hi Clare
We all absolutely love the quilt and hope it will become a keepsake for Terri in the future long after she can put all this behind her. It really is beautiful. She arrived home on Saturday shortly before we got there: Her white count is doing really well and although she has had to go back to the hospital almost daily she is able to stay out for now. She is on a concoction of drugs and obviously doesn't feel well a lot of the time but was chatting and certainly glad to be home again when we saw her. She has to have lots of tests and more chemo over the next few months but was talking about future schooling and was quite positive. This is particularly important given that one of her friends died from an infection following a transplant just before Terri had her own. My brother (her dad) took the attached photo and they are happy for it to go on the blog.

Thank you again
Karen
