A bump to say THANK YOU to the FTers who have sent postcards & some who have sent multiple cards on a regular basis, from locations near & far. I know that Cheryl appreciates all of the postcards and best wishes. Her treatment goes through 4/09 so I'm spacing out sending them to her so that she gets something fun in the mail each week. Again, many thanks.

Cheers.

We'll do our best to get one off from Budapest - but somewhere for sure! (PM sent)

Sharon,

I've been collecting postcards since the summer. I'll be in LA in December. If you like, I can deliver them in person; or, just pop them in the mail.

Whichever is easiest for you. Cheers.

Back from visiting my sister over the holidays. She's kept all the postcards you've sent, and she's right - you all have been in some interesting (and not so interesting) places!

I'm still spacing out sending her cards, as her treatment will go through end of April (and unfortunately if Friday's news is accurate, much longer).

But she enjoys receiving them, keeps them, and re-reads them/looks at the pics. So THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart on your generosity re: this project.

Cheers.

Sharon, it would me my honor to send your sister something...please do e-mail me your address. I don't have any exotic trips planned until late Sept., but who knows what can happen between now and then!

I wish her a very speedy recovery!

I'd love to participate in this... please send me your addy and you will have a nice Vietnam themed postcard coming up. I have been receiving quite a few postcards here lately and I must say, from personal experience, it is so nice to get them.

Alas, things are not going as well as we wanted or hoped, so her treatment will be continuing for a lot longer than expected (d*mn/upset). So if any of you are willing to send (or continue to send) postcards it would be greatly appreciated. She's going to need some cheery images. Thanks!

Cheers.

I am so sorry for the news, Sharon. And I know how important a positive spirit is to healing - both for you, as the encourager, and for her, as she seeks good health. There is so little we can do to help - but at least I'll pull out some more postcards to get on their way.

Sharon, I am truly sorry to hear this. My heart goes out to both of you.

Thanks for the best wishes & support, and for those who have or are sending postcards, thank you. Cheryl keeps them all. Of course now I'm concerned that she'll want me to give her an airline ticket to each location when she recovers

Cheers.
