Mine is still in my savings account, and I haven't touched it, although I know there will be charitable plans for it one of these days. I'm thinking of using it on an "adopt a family" Christmas program.

I refused but she insisted and said that an old woman like her (85) has no need of such jewellery and that it was her gift to me while she was still alive. She passed away 6 months later. I have not been able to go back to the old country to pay my respects and I miss her terribly.
