Blanketter Recognition

Dorothy Finkel  

Our friend and great supporter of Project Linus, Dorothy Finkel, moved to Utah.  She hopes she’ll find a Chapter to join there.  She machine knit her blankets and they were absolutely wonderful.  She made 229 blankets for us.  Thanks so much Dorothy and we wish you a wonderful life in your new home.

  Medical Bloopers

A man comes into the ER and yells, "My wife's going to have her baby in the cab! "I grabbed my stuff, rushed out to the cab, lifted the lady's dress, and began to take off her underwear.
Suddenly I noticed that there were several cabs - and I was in the wrong one. 

Thank yous dated 9/22/06 - 113 blankets and 12/7/06 - 315 blankets.  “Many thanks for your special support!”

Their Mission Statement:
We believe all children have unique needs and should grow up without illness and injury.
With the support of the community and through our spirit of inquiry, we will prevent, treat and eliminate pediatric disease.

If you attended the “Make a Difference Day” celebration in October, you are very well aware of the wonderful results.  Over 30 “blanketeers” attended and 228 blankets were logged in.  Both Boni and I were thrilled with the turnout and all the help we received.  I hesitate to mention names … I’m afraid I’ll miss some one.  There were helpers for setup to teardown, counters, baggers, sewers, and cookie bakers.  You know who you are … thank you, thank you, thank you!
