Help for Sister Margaret Mary 2021

Sister is a long time member of the Sheepishly Sharing Community and we’ve helped with her music program fundraisers for many years. However, 2020 will be a very different year for her. She has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Uterine Cancer and has left the convent to live in Louisville, KY where she will be receiving her treatments. She’s currently living on disability and is supplementing with craft sales.

UPDATE 2-27-2021: Sister is finished with her chemo and the results are not what we had hoped. She now has a mass in her stomach called carcinoid carcinoma BUT the good news is she’s waiting to see if she’s eligible for a clinical trial! See address below for sending well wishes and cards of encouragement!

She’s given me a “wish list” to share with our community in hopes of gathering supplies. (She uses my Santa Scarf and Snake Scarf patterns and also a teddy bear from eyelash yarn among other things!)
