Sometimes you want to tell someone you're thinking of them when they're struggling to deal with stressful circumstances, but it can be hard to find just the right words when you most need them. When I first saw the Filimin Friendship Lamp, I thought immediately how wonderful this would be to share with my best friend of 50 years, who lives 2000 miles away...and it definitely has been. The lamps are perfect: my friend has recently begun chemo for stage 4 cancer, and I can touch my lamp and she knows instantly that I'm thinking of and praying for her. She doesn't have to talk on the phone or respond to a text or email when she's sick or exhausted, but she knows I'm there. When words are inadequate or you simply don't know how to express what's in your heart (or don't want the other person to feel obligated to talk or write), the radiance of the friendship lamp sends the message for you. I often follow a tap of the lamp with a brief text or emoji(s), and my friend or her husband can do the same if they choose. I want to figure out how she can send different colors to express different messages (e.g., call me, I love you, I'm feeling sad/scared/tired, etc). It's amazing how it warms your heart to see the friendship lamp begin to glow! Everyone asks me where they can get a set, and I've referred dozens of people to the Grommet and Filimin. Thank you so much for this way to be more closely connected to my dearest friend, despite the miles between us.

this is my second set since the first ones were such a HUGE hit with our parents in Texas...they purchased additional ones to connect everyone and we currently have hugs coming from 4 different states. This year we happened to have a death in the family and I have to say those Hug Lamps were such a healing way to keep us all together..... my new set is going to be just for my sister and myself so we can connect since she currently moved to another state.... Love the lamps! Very easy to set up!!

I have been looking for another way for my nieces and I to connect. I am currently free of cancer but am facing chemotherapy, radiation and 10 years of oral medication or just radiation and 10 years of medication This is a perfect way for us to keep in touch during the day other than text. We all live in 3 different states. It brings us closer We may get one more as a graduation present so that our great niece can take it to college with her next year

I bought two paired lamps, and sent one to a friend who spends six months of the year in another state. It's so much fun to send her a message with light, saying 'I'm thinking of you!' and to get a light message back from her! The lamps were not difficult to start up and connect to wifi, and we're both enjoying a new method of staying in touch!

Thank you for offering such a wonder item. I purchased 3 of these for my sister-in-law, niece and one for myself. I cannot tell you how much it warms my heart when I see my light turn. The colors are beautiful. We use our multiple times a day to say good morning, hello or thinking about you. My niece is at college and it was late one night. I was having trouble sleeping, tapped the light. She immediately texted me and said I was up studying and your light gave me a little more to keep going for finals. There is no sound so no need to worry about waking someone or disturbing them. I will be purchasing more for other family members.
