am going to challenge you all to do something ===
I am now in Clearwater, Fla (for the winter months only) and since I have been retired and getting a bit bored can u believe that?? but any way I cant sit around and not be crocheting or knitting I have contacted the V A hospitals and found out that so many of our wounded , disabled veterans are wheel chair bound and could use laprobes I am sure they hate to have ppl starring at their legs or lack of
so MY CHALLENGE TO YOU ALL PLEASE CONSIDER MAKING LAP ROBES ABOUT 36'' X 48'' IN BRIGHT COLORS AND TAKE THEM TO THE LOCAL VA HOSPITALS OR MAIL THEM TO ONE IF YOU DONT HAVE ANY NEAR YOU IT WONT COST A LOT TO MAIL THEM OUT IF THAT IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO
IF YOU NEED TO FIND OUT WHERE THE NEAREST TO U IS CALL YOUR LOCAL V F W OR AMERICAN LEGION POSTS THEY CAN FIND OUT FOR U THERE IS ONE NEAR ME THAT HAS A UNIT FOR SPINAL CORD INJURIES AND THE WOMAN TOLD ME T HERE ARE OVER 100 PATIENTS THERE SO I HAVE MY WORK CUT OUT FOR ME
THANKS IN ADVANCE PLEASE POST ANY IDEAS YOU ALL MAY HAVE ON THESE ROBES AND REMEMBER THERE ARE WOUNDED WOMEN AS WELL AS MEN
THANKS AGAIN
BARB AKA HOOS
