Sandy Good was touched by the outpouring of love and support she received after receiving an ovarian cancer diagnosis. Each card meant so much to her, but the prayer blankets she received were particularly special to her. Church groups would make the blankets especially for her, and pray for her while they worked. She says, "It means a lot when you have all those people praying and they show you those demonstarations of love. It's very encouraging."
