A Friend In Need


Just a few months ago I learn that a friend of about 20 years has the early stages of Dementia!I was saddened for her as she and I had our first quilting class together about 8 years ago. It was a 1 year class and we learned alot together and have shared a room at retreat for 3 years. All in all a good relationship. With another mutual friend of ours we went to visit her and it was then she reveled that her drivers license was taken away. We didn't press her for the "why". I just can't imagine her distress over that, I would be devastated if that happens to me!!! She outwardly seemed to have accepted this situation. She said she had not finished a quilt for one of her daughters and had 2 other daughters that she planned quilts for. So, a couple of my quilty friends and I said we would do that for her. This is the one that I have two thirds of the attic blocks finished. I want to finish all my UFO's as we never know what is waiting for us!!
