As I soar above the darkness of PTSD, I'm infused with hope and resilience 9 years after bidding a final farewell to my beloved Mamma on Mother's Day, 5/15/2017, this year it falls on this Friday) the day I witnessed her last breath, and though the annual reminder still stirs memories, I'm reminded that life's journey often unfolds differently than anticipated - we had envisioned a short 3-month wait and a joyful picnic, but destiny had other plans, and I received a call to cherish her final moments; recently, I've encountered another obstacle, yet I find serenity in the journey of self-discovery and growth, knowing we all carry our own battles. Creating and sharing my blankets is my solace, a labor of love that brings me peace and delight. Every stitch is woven with prayers, positive energy, and thoughts of the person who'll wrap themselves in its warmth, imagining the stories they'll tell, and the comfort it will bring. With my CEO Aster (basset hound) by my side, I know that I and all of you will discover your peace, healing, and comfort.
