When nothing else matters

I could write about my Veteran's Day including a free meal, or my updated treatment plan for my migraines, Paws biting Eligh, Eligh skidding his face into the table, or a variety of mundane events.  But, these things are not worth it.  My heart, head, and emotions are scattered and lost searching to find the jagged edge that fits together just right to make it whole again. 

Please stop over my dear, dear, dear friend's blog.  This is not another "story" of a friend of a friend of a friend.  Let me remind you, Kym was carrying Sam when I was carrying Addy.  These two little ones are just a few weeks apart and I feel a strong yearning to support and help in any way I can.  I know that I will be helping by creating a fundraiser for Sam and his family through Scentsy to help raise money.  I know that my family cannot possibly give much or do much, but if I can get enough people to buy any commission I would make from sales will go directly to them which is well over what I could ever donate from our own income.  Stay tuned for further details as Kym gets everything in order. 

Just another reminder of how unimportant the mundane events of our lives are when so many others are going through much bigger and challenging journeys.

  1. When I read about this a couple of days ago, I stopped breathing for a moment. Sam is exactly one week younger than Allison. It really hits home. Please send me the link to the Scentsy party when you have it.

  2. Thank you, Carrie. I'm pulling stuff together slowly but surely. I might need your help on some background stuff once I get things more arranged.

Don't just read, say something! Sorry, I had to add the word verification - I am being spammed.
