Hi Tina!
I'm Lynn. Nice to meet you!! I do so love your blog.
I have gotten to know Cindy over at Yapping Cat. She has asked us to send you cheer and encouragement since hearing of your diagnosis. I would like to leave you with this scripture which has gotten myself and some others that I know through some tough hurdles.
"Let the beloved of the LORD rest secure in him, for he shields him all day long, and the one the LORD loves rests between his shoulders."
Deuteronomy 31:11-13
Lots of hugs to you!!
What nice mail you received! I've been thinking of you.
Tina~ I am sending my love and offering unceasing heartfelt prayers!!! xoxox
Hello! your friend Cindy sent me your way, and I'm enjoying your blog very much. I especially like your nodder dogs. Too cute!
Tina.....I'm working on my soldering, girl, but can't get it perfected without you, so get well. Quick!! I'm calling all the prayer warriors down here in the Hill Country to send their prayers for your return to health up to you in North Texas....and my prayers are flying up there also. Can't party with out you.....
God's love,
Rita

Hey, Woman!! I remember reading your blog a loooong time ago, and how I loved your blog's name - "glue on my fingers" - since that is one of my favorite things to experience; getting my crafty groove on and glue on my fingers!! I found you through dear old Cindy, that yapping cat, and am sorry that I have not bee by for a visit in ages. I am thinking of you and sending you good thoughts!! You are such a sweetie, and I am so glad to have met you in this crafty-swappy world!! Hugs, Tina!!!

I'm going to hopefully get some comments about your "medical adventure with C." started here. I think this is the perfect post to say a few words about your new battle....the sunrise in which you can see God so plainly and then the gifts you received in one day in your mailbox....God and gifts. They go hand in hand and I know that He has many gifts planned for you in these coming days. They will be mixed in with your trauma, the complete upset of your world and your new life battle.
I know that you wear the armor of God and that He will give you the strength you need to fight the good fight.
I also know how much He loves you.
At least three times as much as I do.
You are my precious friend,
I love you,
Jan
I am sending prayers and hope that all will turn out well. Keep remembering that beautiful sunrise and know that each day has a new beginning.
Love those kind of mail days! Looks like you had an AMAZING one!!!
Tina, I am praying for you and your family and sending you lots of hugs and sunshine! You are an amazing person with a strong spirit.
Hugs
Tina, I just wanted you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I am sending you lots of hugs and sunshine!
Tina, please know that you are in my prayers in that you have much peace in enduring this battle with cancer. Know that this will not defeat you and that your spirit must remain open to the peace and healing of prayers sent your way. It is so shocking that one of your beauty and energy can be hit with such a hard blow. It is that same strength that will get you through this. Know that you are loved by so many and wished that the very best care and blessings surround you and your family at all times.~ Angela
Tina, have been following your blog for a while but heard about your diagnosis through Cindy's blog. Please know that you are in my prayers and I'm Asking God to watch over you and to guide the physicians in charge of your care!

First I was at Jan's, then read what Miss C wrote on Paper Cowgirl, and now I'm here...You are in my prayers, you and your family and I pray the doctors have wisdom in treating you and that you are surrounded by kindness.

Tina, I'm so sorry to hear about your diagnosis, but I also know that colon cancer is one of the most treatable. I'm so honored to be a part of a group of gals that is praying for you. Make sure and take good care of yourself, because I'm saving my nickels and days off of work to come meet you at next year's Paper Cowgirl Retreat:D
I heard about you from Pam's blog and even though I don't know you, I am praying that you will be completely healed!

Tina I have come over from Cindy's blog -my thoughts are with you during this tough time. Sending positive thoughts your way.

Tina- what are those doorknobs/escutcheon things you got on Etsy? I believe you called them charms. Are they paper? How big are they? Very cool. Can you point me in their direction. And thinking of you, having read Jan T's alert. Now, you need a different kind of mojo. Focus on that. The entire art community is sending you our thoughts.
How nice to meet you and any friend of Cindy's is someone worth knowing -- Delightful blog --
May God bless and that your healing begins as we speak -- will certainly pray for you --
Blessings -- kathy - ga
Hi Tina, so sorry about your diagnosis. I will keep you on my prayer list. And yes the next time I'm up your way I'd love to go to Starbucks for coffee. Take care. Hugs***Renea
Tina, My love, prayers and thoughts are with you. Your strength and wit, friends and family will be good medicine for you. As a cancer survivor I will be lifting you up in prayer daily and praying for healing. Go positively with God's constant care.

Just had to pop in again and tell you I think about you all day every day, sending my biggest prayers and hugs.
I'm sending well wishes to you and your family as you go down this unexpected path. I hope it helps in some small way knowing there are many praying for you, sending loving, healing thoughts out to you. May peace, comfort, and strength surround you.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. If art is the best therapy for anything, you got it licked 'cause you are a GREAT artist. Please know how many folks are praying for you and holding you up with our hearts. Lots of hugs, Stephanie
Tina, I just read about you at Pam Warden's blog. I have added your name to my prayer list! Everything is in God's hands.
