Jaxon was diagnosed with Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) 5 days after his second birthday (Feb 2011). His mother told me that Jaxon is the seventh (7th) child in Canada to be diagnosed with this rare disease. I am his great-aunt Louise and I come up with the idea of this blog to keep people informed, and to use my passion for stitching to raise money for the FOP organizations.

I'm still here
Hi there, did ya think that I fell off the face of the earth? Since the last post, I have had a major head cold (I think its going around - tis cold and flu season). And I have barely stitched at all - I mean days without stitching!! Gasp, gasp.... in fact, I must be very honest with you - gulp, my daily challenge isn't up to date! I know, I know, you are all thinking that Louise has to be really sick to not be stitching! Part of the problem was a major issue I was/am having with my cable company (I won't get into it) which was/is extremely frustrating and depressing. I have run through the gamut of emotions from anger to resigned futility and thats pretty bad. So even though I haven't stitched, I still pulled a design every day. This means, my challenge is going to proceed a little differently this year. I will pick a pattern every day (so far, I am up to date) and I will complete them on an on-going basis. Does that make sense.... Okay, I am off to complete the UFO's from 2014, pull todays design, make me a lovely cup of tea and get stitching! Yea.... all I can say now is "I'm Back!!" Hugs to all of you, Louise

Glad you're feeling better Louise :) Have fun with all your stitching!
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are feeling better! That's the fun part of challenges...changing them up from time to time. I am standing firm with my challenge..NO UFO'S.... And, of course to finish last years challenge pieces...only six to go. Now,WIP ARE NOT UFO'S....but, I am much more relaxed with my basket of empty UFO'S. Looking forward to seeing some of your projects Louise!
