    I made this for my brother, who was diagnosed in March with stage 4 colon cancer, metastisized to the liver. He has made amazing progress since then - his cancer markers in his blood have gone from 11,700 in March to 69 now! I wanted him to be warm while having chemo, 'cause one of the drugs makes him very suseptible to the cold. Hopefully he'll be using it for years to come!
