My friend
Katy's little 17-month old boy Emmett was diagnosed with cancer recently. As soon as I heard the news I bought
this pattern and made him this elephant. Emmett had surgery in New Mexico where they live and they have decided to have additional treatment in Boston. They are waiting to get results from more surgery this week so the treatment plan is on hold right now. They have started a blog:
The Adventures of Little Muncher and His Lion.
Katy is one of "my young women". If my memory and calculations are correct, she became a Beehive when I was the Young Women president. Katy is gold. She's all-around wonderful. It was so nice to see her last night. Emmett has a
lion (that his aunt Carrie made for him)
that he loves so now he has his own Zoo.
