I am so sorry for the loss of your husb...Hi Kathie,<br />I am so sorry for the loss of your husband. My son, Josh, was diagnosed with ALS when he was 32 years old and 2 weeks before the birth of his first child. It is a horrendous and devastating disease.<br /><br />I am in the quilting business (Quilters Dream Batting) and we are planning the 'Hopes & Dreams Quilt Challenge for ALS'. We are asking quilters to donate quilts that will be presented to ALS patients (through the ALS Association) with some quilts being auctioned and/or raffled off. We are hoping this Quilt Challenge will help to raise the spirits of PALS, raise awareness and help raise money for research. If any of your friends are quilters -- please pass the word!! Thank you for staying with your efforts for ALS - it is wonderful of you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00842360000068676991noreply@blogger.com
