Relay for Life and my personal connection

Greetings all,

today has been a difficult day in some ways. I found out a week ago that my real life sister-in-law probably has ovarian cancer. They will know for sure after surgery, which is scheduled for a week from tomorrow.

Yesterday I got the invite for Relay for Life's March Fashion show, having been a designer for them last year. I've accepted, and Greenwood Designs will have a store there.

I have mixed feelings. I love my sister-in-law and I don't want her to have cancer, but as hard as it is for me, it's worse for her. Just the sheer terror of knowing you have something like that isn't easy to deal with. For us, her extended family, it's been a week of disbelief with a lot of tears. I would ask for your prayers for her, her name is Mary Ann, and that today you take an extra moment and tell at least one person you love how much they mean to you.

Bright blessings,
Kembri
