Bottles of Hope Wish

On the Clay-Polymer Yahoo group last week, we got some sad news from member Pat Jones, who was recently told she has cancer which has crossed over into her brain. She came to the group with a very simple request of the clay artists. Make art, specifically a Bottle of Hope.

Pat has made over 250 bottles during the last 7 years. She has a sister who is a cancer survivor, so the program is something close to her already. It was started in 1999 by a Rhode Island cancer survivor and has spread internationally.

This image is a collection of bottles Pat made for her sister to pass out at The James @ OSU Medical Center. These bottles are only given away, never sold.

If you would like to make one, see these pages for more information about the best bottles to use and how to get them into the hands of cancer patients.
