Today is the last day that our family doctor is here. He is retiring and it is so hard to say goodbye. We have been with him for over 30 years and he is the most caring, compassionate person. It's hard to start over with someone who hasn't been along with us on this journey but the new Dr. won't be taking care of hubby, only me. That should keep him busy enough! This is the card I made for him. It is an NBUS stamp from Cornish Heritage Farms called  The Saturday Evening Post Common Cold. That's how long I've had it! The date on the back is 2009. It was kind of hard to color since some of the images are so small. I love the hot water bottle and his feet in hot water. People today might not know what a hot water bottle is.  The inside says "will be missed". Be kind to one another.

Oh this one is perfect for your retiring dr. (and we fear that our GP will retire soon too. Ugh) I loved the CHF stamps, and the digis are just no comparison. Great coloring on this one...well done. TFS & hugs.
