    New to site.

    Hi! I'm new to this site. I'm a mother of three and a grandmother of four. I started back to crocheting last September while taking care of my mom who was dying of lung cancer. She passed away in late October. I am now taking care of my aunt who had a stroke right after my mom died. I found crocheting is a great stress reliever!

    Hi there and welcome. You must be a very strong person to deal with everything you have been through. My heart goes out to you. I agree with you that crocheting is a great stress reliever, it gets your mind off things for a little bit and you can relax. I hope you are taking care of yourself along your journey.
