This shopping bag means a lot to me. Two friends and I choose to make one each: it was an attempt to stop the time, be together in a bubble, outside the far to harsh reality of illness. It gave hope, just for a moment, where there was no hope. Two friends finished their bags, one didn't, she passed away 4 months ago. We couldn't give you anything but this small tiny bubble that wasn't real, Kathleen, but we will never ever forget the joy of that day.
How lovely that you spent time together. Every time you and your other friends see the bags they will think of the one who is no longer here.
