Hope in a Handbag

To the Dear Friends who sent me the necessities bag,

I received your necessities bag while I was in the hospital recovering from a mastectomy for stage 3 inflammatory breast cancer. The next night Angel

Hubby and I stayed in the Care House adjacent to the cancer center.

We opened the necessities bag and saw immediately how much I needed the undershirts and bandages. The comfort pillows were perfect for the long ride home. I am so thankful for everything you packed for me - the lifesavers, noteooo~wafer bo'ttle, cottonelie fresh wipes. Kleenex, lip balms, emery board, and folder and pen, and of course the lovely carry bag.

There was a very touching note signed by Jane some pretty beads on a string that included.

As I handled and looked at everything my heart was so touched. I could tell that those who already knew my need packed the bag. Your act of generosity and kindness is something I will not forget.

My husband David and I are committed Christians, yet our human side has been so weak at times in the past many months of 5 chemo treatments and now my recent surgery. What would we do without the Lord Jesus and our Christian family in Christ?

Matthew 5:7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

Sincerely,

Susan
