1 Quilt N Paint News Creative Hands Quilt Shop and Decorative Painting Store 1907 W Foxwood Drive, Raymore, MO (816) May 2015 A Note from Sheryll All, I am so glad April is over; I do not think I stopped once the whole month! We had 2 awesome shows and were able to be a vendor at a retreat! I would like to thank everyone for supporting us! Most of you know I have Multiple Myeloma (cancer of the plasma cells). I had to have treatment in the Fall of 2012 and have been doing okay since then, however one of my numbers is up so I am looking at starting chemo again in the next couple of weeks. I went this week for a bone marrow biopsy & a full Musculoskeletal survey, and will meet with my Oncologist on May 6 th to discuss treatment plans. The reason that I am telling you all of this is that I would like to ask that you let me know if you are sick before you come in so that I can put on a mask! I appreciate you doing this for me! Being able to see all of you each day will help me get through all of this and this will help ensure that I get to stay at the shop! Check out what is new!
