I'm so glad to hear that things are going better for you now, Irene!
Keep on taking care of yourself -- physically and mentally -- so your
recovery continues. Congratulations on finishing a quilt, too --
amazing! :)

Irene - good to see you again - (even if online!) Glad to hear things are
getting better, even if at a slow pace. BUT, slow and steady wins the race,

Stay in touch. Sending positive healing vibes your way.

So glad to hear you are doing well Irene. Terrific that you were able
to go to the quilt show, and even more terrific that you finished your
wall-hanging! Do we get to see some pictures of it?
Best regards,
