Penny McAllister


Recently I was involved with a fundraising activity called the "Penny Tree", and many of you will remember the PFATT ladies created ornaments for a tree in support of Penny McAllister, who is fighting leukemia. Penny took a turn for the worse yesterday, and I am asking for healing prayers for this creative lady as well as prayers for her family struggling with this difficult situation. If you aren't a religious person, may I ask you to send healing thoughts or positive energy to Penny. She needs help with this battle against cancer.

Here is a link to Penny Vs. Cancer blog

    I had no idea she was sick! I am so heavy with pain in my heart....I loved her creations from the beginning...I went to the blog and could cry. I am sending prayers and love to her and her loved ones..and to all of us who love her.

    Thanks Caroline.

    Suzi, I was surprised by this because her note of a few weeks ago about eating bananas seemed humorous. I guess when she went back into the hospital I didn't realize how very ill she was until they talked about moving her into ICU. Yesterday's post just made me so sad. I can't imagine how scary this has to be for the family.

    Pam, Penny is a member of PFATT and those sisters of hers are forming an "army" to get other bloggers and FB members to send healing thoughts and prayers to Penny. Thank you for your help sweetie!!!

    Thank you for letting us know...I personally don't know her, but to know her work is to know her. I'll work on her tonight, thanks again, Laurie.
