cactusladycandles Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I have a very special request. My oldest son, Paul, is in the Navy in Norfolk, Virginia. He has been diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver and is on a waiting list for a new liver. In the meantime, he is in and out of the hospital with jaundice and having his blood purified which is very painful and exhausting. When I first started making candles, I used a lot of the plastic two-piece molds from Pourette. One was a 9 1/2" tall cross mold. When I moved back to Arizona from Kansas, I sold all of my plastic molds. Does anyone have this mold, and if they do, could they please make me a white cross for my son. And send it to me and I will send it on to him. Time is of the essence. The cost doesn't matter. His wish does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cactusladycandles Posted February 6, 2010 Author Share Posted February 6, 2010 I saw that mold. If someone doesn't have the mold to make me one, I will order and make it myself. I'm just trying to do it as quick as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella1952 Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 (edited) Just an FYI, I would not order it from SpiritCrafts if you want it quick. Long story...Do you know of another source for this mold? If not, what would be the alternative?Contacting the supplier directly with a special request would be the best bet...

cactusladycandles Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 I did order it from Spirit Crafts and put in a message as to why I need it quickly. He replied back and said I would have it by Wednesday. Thanks everyone for all the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella1952 Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Hi guys ,, I am new to this , however can someone help me out with finding the perfect wax mix ? Welcome. Yes, there are lots of people here who can help steer you in a direction, but this thread is not an appropriate place to do so. Please do some reading and then start a new topic explaining what you want to make and your questions about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactusladycandles Posted February 20, 2010 Author Share Posted February 20, 2010 Well, I finally got the mold this past Tuesday, 12 days after I ordered it. He emailed me and promised to have it to me in 2 days. What a liar. One mold shouldn't take almost two weeks, especially since he is in California and I'm in Phoenix, Arizona. I won't order anything from him again. Anyway, I poured it Wednesday and sent it out yesterday. My son should get in by Monday or Tuesday.

scifichik Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Very happy to see that you found the mold you wanted! You and Paul are in my prayers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactusladycandles Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 When I talked to Paul yesterday, he told me the doctors are starting him on an experimental drug to build his liver up. He is also spending a lot of time under an ultra-violet lamp to help keep the toxins at bay. The Navy is exhausting every available treatment before they commit to a liver transplant. Paul told me this weekend will be the first time he hasn't spent the weekend in the hospital in 2 months. Let's hope the medication works.

Stella1952 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 The Navy is exhausting every available treatment before they commit to a liver transplant.Oh my, YES!! Transplants are truly a last ditch choice because of the anti-rejection therapy & suppression of the immune system for the rest of one's life! I so hope the new therapy works, not only for your son, but to help others who would like an alternative to transplant surgery.How wonderful that he was out of the hospital for a bit! That has to feel so wonderful to him! Healthy people take simple things like that for granted and we really should remember to appreciate them every day of our lives!Best wishes for his continued progress and a complete recovery!
