Win Cancer
At A & B Creating we had a lovely visit from Pisti and Roula from WinCancer this summer. Their organization gives a lot of information and support to cancer patients and they have some lovely projects going on.

They had gone to Molaoi to set up a library in the hospital over there and on their way back to Athens they stopped in Sparta to pick up 40 armpit cushions.
Cutting the fabric, sewing the heart and finally stuffing it with batting. It was a great day! 'Everyone was happy to take part in this good cause, enjoyed each other's company, the coffee and the cookies and left with a satisfied feeling.
Due to the Covid lockdown we weren't able to get the cushions to Athens, so they stayed in our place. Weren't we lucky that Pisti and Roula came to our region and we could finally meet them. We had a lovely time together and will meet again soon!!!
The cushion is put under the armpit and gives relief after a breast operation. Win Cancer already donated some of them to a hospital in Thessaloniki and will donate the cushions to various hospitals in Greece. Thank you girls!!!
Well done!!
ReplyDeleteWe had such a nice time together! My wish is that all women (and men) will be, become and stay healthy! These cosy and colourful heart pillows then can be just a pretty addition to our interiors.
ReplyDeleteDearest Ada,
ReplyDeleteWhat a noble cause that was for sewing those armpit cushions for breast cancer patients and others!
It is good for fighting for those that cannot themselves, but need all our support and prayers.
Hugs,
