#20 My Boyfriend Is Going Through Chemo For 6 Months And Has Surgery Coming Up. This Morning This Was Left On My Desk By My Boss
My boss loves stones of all kinds and we have talked about our love of labradorite. She had mentioned red labradorite which I had never heard of. The ring is red labradorite and the card says, "I think about you at times and what you are going through and I know how tough life can be. You are always positive and there for the clients, your peers, and even me. Here is something I wanted to give you. As I said, jewelry is my thing and this is a red labradorite. I love it and hope you do too. Please take care of yourself and know I am here for you as is the team. Have a blessed day!"
