Well, they are all gone! I appreciate all of your ideas and suggestions, but there were some other stipulations to take into account. They had to be gone and out of our lives completely, and they each had to have their own 'fate'. So, this is what I did with the 8 chemo counter bracelets:
It seemed a fitting place to celebrate her liberty from cancer.
#2 - On Bill the horse's carriage#3 - Future temple grounds There is a temple announced for Philadelphia, and this is where it is supposed to be. It was too perfect that a mailbox was right there since my mom is a postal employee. You can see it on the handle of the mailbox.
#4 - Cool FountainOkay, you seriously need to check out Cookie because it has pictures of the boys taking it to the top of the fountain. In their church clothes. :o)
#5 - The Schuylkill River
This one was a bit of a rush job since we were parked illegally. I cut the beads off the elastic and threw them all in at once. It was fun actually. :o)

Well, that was really fun! We had a great time! There is a big ol' slide show over on Cookie with a ton more pictures if you want to check it out. We are really grateful my mommy is done with her chemo treatments, and it was therapeutic to get rid of the reminder of each treatment. Here is to many healthy years to come!
