A Nice Letter from a Scleroderma Patient
I just received this nice letter from C. I recently donated quite a few hats to Scleroderma patients. C. is almost finished with a transplant that she is receiving as part of a clinical trial. I am anxious to hear about the results and will post more information as soon as it's available!
Taylor,
Thank you for what you are doing. I am a Scleroderma patient from________. I just received several of your hats from my fellow Scleroderma patient and friend. It was a really bright spot in an otherwise tense and challenging time. Thank you!
I am in ________, participating in a clinical trial for auto-immune diseases where I'm getting a stem cell transplant. I'll be here for two months. It's cold! I'm losing my femininity as I lose my hair. I'm worried how my family and friends will treat me as I "get ugly" during this process. Your adorable hats let me feel like myself! It's not my blond hair, but it is a chance for my face to shine and not be overwhelmed by the odd baldness. It's wonderful!
I believe attitude is everything while undergoing stem cell transplant. I'm doing fine on that front! Now you are part of that.

Happy Winter!

Summer Donations
Last week, I visited the University of Toledo Medical Center and had surgery to implant a cardiac loop recorder. It will help my doctors decide how to proceed with my treatment.
The summer is speeding by!

A New Offering
I have had many requests for socks or slippers to keep patients' feet warm during chemo sessions. Jay came up with these adorable super stretch booties. They are warm, cute, and they have Jay's loving touch.

Back on Track
Yay! I made my first hat delivery since my heart problems started! I have kept up with my hat knitting, but my schedule has been very full with doctors lately. Thank you to everyone who has inquired about my health. It looks like my arrhythmia is originating in the right ventricular outflow tract. That means that it should not be life threatening. Great news! I was able to stop taking beta blockers and am medication free. I'm hoping that I won't have to start taking anti-arrhythmia drugs, but that remains to be seen. Right now, I'm doing great and am back at school after missing six weeks.
