Chemo Cap for Melba

You go from the joy of baby caps to the hope of chemo caps. My aunt was diagnosed with leukemia this week. It's been a shock for everyone. It hit her in a couple of days. She had blood work done last week because she was exhausted, the Dr. came over to her house(next door) on Monday to tell her he wanted her to go to a specialist. She's had bone marrow test done and the pic line put in to start chemo tomorrow. She will be in the hospital for three weeks. She is still strong and asks that everyone keep her in their Prayers. We all feel helpless, all we can do is make her comfortable and hopefully she won't worry about my uncle while she is sick. She's a fighter and is taking things one day at a time. Mom and I have been cooking for her I started a chemo cap for last night. Orange is the support color for Leukemia. The pattern I thought would be more comfortable was Elann's Pi Topper Chemo Cap, knitted in a beautiful Karabella Aurora 8 in Orange. I want to finish it today so I an take it to the hospital tomorrow. One Day at a Time!
