I have been following
CEEKAY
for quite a while and
she is warm and welcoming
and working hard to
beat cancer.
Here is the sad news I
got yesterday.
I am copying this over from
Marty' blog
Calling All Bloggers To Unite _ Elves for CK
The best part of blogging is the friends you make,
and I am so fortunate that I have met some of
the most precious friends and
they are such a blessing to my life.
One of those precious friends is a
lovely lady named Ceekay and she has
a blog called Thinkin' of Home.
We all call her just CK,
so much fun and so full of life.
We met 3 years ago through a
bloggers lunch and since then
have been great friends.
I love her cheerful nature and her zest for life.
She has been fighting a battle with
Ovarian Cancer for over 7 years
and never lets that define who she is
or what she wants to do.
However, right now she is in the hospital
and very ill, she is fighting hard,
Chemo has her in such a weakened condition
that fighting an infection is a real battle.
We are all hoping she will beat this thing
and be home soon.
If you don't know her, here are a few pictures
If you don't know her, here are a few pictures
that show her zest for life and her loving
and outgoing personality.
Visiting a farm

Having a fabulous time with a fellow blogger (Mary's Meanderings).
Loving time with another friend - Karen
Her first time at the ocean
This was taken right before she got sick at our last gals lunch.
Ok, now why I called you all together.
One of the things on CK's Wish and
Bucket list is to be able to take her family
(Son, Daughter, SIL, 2 Grands
and she and her husband) to Disneyland.
She mentioned this at a recent luncheon
and this really struck the heart of
Laura @ Decor to Adore
So, Laura has decided to donate
all the proceeds from the Elves
that she makes and sells in her
Etsy shop to a fund for Ck
so she can fulfill her dream.
She is calling it
ELVES FOR CEEKAY
Please go to her blog - Decor to Adore -
and see the post she has explaining
how you can help.
I would also love it if you would
spread the word.
I know there is nothing that
we can't do as bloggers,
and if we all work together,
we can make this happen.
If you go to Marty's Blog she has a
link on her sidebar.
Thank you so much.
Bloggers are just like family,
aren't they?
We bless each other.

To know Ceekay is to love her. I too have followed her for a long time and marveled at how strong she has been throughout her treatments. I would like to have one ounce of her strength and fortitude. She is indeed very special and I pray for her recovery.
This is a wonderful thing that the bloggers are doing and I'll head over there.

Keeping CK in my thoughts and prayers!
Praying for CK today and for a cure for cancer. Or a prevention or a vaccination or something! It just effects way too many lives and families.
Ceekay is really a sweetheart...sending good thoughts and prayers...
I'm blogging friends with Ceekay and was wondering how she was as she hasn't blogged lately. I'm so sad. I hope she gets better.
Prayers for CK and her family.
Thank you for letting us know about this, Diana.

I am so sorry to read this. Prayers for her!
Hi sweetie, I too have followed CK since I first found her, through Marty. My sister fought that same battle and this drew me close to CK. I will be going to Marty's blog and Laura's blog as well. Thank you for alerting us to the recent setback our dear friend has had.
Hugs, Noreen
I do not know your friend, but I will pray for her. Cancer stinks.
It is very kind of you to spread the word about Ceekay and her illness. I am praying she pulls through this. I am expecting my little elf soon!
XO,
Jane
She sure sounds like a wonderful gal. Such a difficult time for her-I will add my prayers for continued strength and love.
What a lovely post. I'm heading over to Marty's to see what's up. I am so behind on blog reading...I'm very glad I opened this and saw it. Happy Weekend Diana ~ Ann
Bloggers are like the fire brigade. On my way to Marty's blog to learn more. I think Disneyland should be on everyone's bucket list. God bless you, Diana, for caring so much.
Oh Diana, I love Ck! I had not heard that she was in the hospital. I will be praying for her! She is such a sweetheart. The elves are so sweet and I will hop over and find out more.
Hugs,
Jann
