My hubby has prostate surgery slated for this this Thursday and it's been a stressful journey getting to this surgery date. Not to compare cancer to a congenital heart problem, which is so scary no doubt, but I feel your anxiety. Everything is fine and then suddenly we feel fragile and scared overnight. I wish you well as the caretaker and hope your hubby has a full recovery. I plan to do what I always do when I need a diversion from stress... I will play with fabric and quilt like crazy!!

I hope you have a bunch of blocks basted to keep you focused during wait times. I love the comment about going to the quilt store! Of course we want to buy fabric. Gee willikers!

I'm sending positive thoughts and prayers to your husband for a smooth surgery and fast recovery, as well as to you for strength to get thru this.

He will have some down time-you will have to plan some ways and means to keep him amused!! Especially if he is feeling good, which is what we all hope for, he will be hard to keep down and resting. You did not say when he was having his surgery so we will all keep posted to your blog so we can all pray or commune with our higher power to ensure that he does well. PS I use Elmer's glue in the tube to paste down my applique pieces to the right place. The stuff is cheap, perfectly okay with fabric, and washes out easily. It has made my life easier!

Science is amazing! I don't know how you feel about it, but I have used my pigma pens to disguise slight mishaps such as the petal and stem mismatch.

It is amazing to me what can be done to correct conditions such as your husband has. Good for your hubby going in to see his doctor before his condition wasn't correctable. We just lost a dear friend because he waited to the point of no return (and didn't tell the doctor all his symptoms when he did go). Bernie will see his doctor from now on when his health changes and likely to go in for regular checkups. This will cause him to have a long and active life. <br /><br />Fabric store + quilter = surprised husband? Yeah, he didn't think that one through. :). Your choices show how organized your mind is. I would have made the choices for the active quilts in your list. The additional purchases for just glimmer of an idea using left over scrap would have not occurred to me. I would have gone for "oh, pretty, I must have you."<br /><br />Prayers are with, your husband and the entire clan for a successful outcome on hubby's surgery.
