Good Morning. I have some good news and more good news. Where should I start? A couple of weeks ago I got some great advice from a sweet gal in the Etsy community. She mentioned a site that could possibly give us some assistance with this whole fund raising thing. I decided to be bold (big shock) and write her an email regarding Ronnie's current state. It really is not hard to sense the desperation in this subject. So I sent it off and waited.
Yesterday I opened my email and to my surprise a reply. It was the reply I had been waiting for. But first a little backround on the site called www.Regretsy.com.
This site is not your typical one. I heard about it through Etsy so I checked it out. Now I will say some of you will frown at this site but it actually helps shops quite a bit. It is very aptly named Regretsy. The content is based on etsy crafts that to the mainstream seem well lets just say odd. I have seen so many items that to a normal person seem bizarre but to the person who made it, it is their brilliant work of art. It is what it is. The founder is so fondly known as Helen Killer. She created the blog and recently released a best selling book based on her findings. I love the name Regretsy. It has a certain ring to it.
So do you want to know about the email? Regretsy blogger Helen Killer wrote me after she had been traveling and said she would help! She will be auctioning off a "Regretsy" purse and giving the proceeds to Ronnie! She feels the pain Ronnie has been experiencing because she to has been struck with this horrible disease. She knows only too well what this is like but she conquered it just like Ronnie. Talk about empathy.
She has more plans to promote Ronnie's cause and is more than willing to help. So a huge thank you goes out to Regretsy!
Ronnie is hoping to get out of the hospital this monday! Let's all pray she does. That place is just gettin' on our nerves. Hospitals have no sense of color coordination at all. The mint green curtains just do not go with our skin tones (that one is for you Cynthia).
So to sum up- Regretsy-Yay! Hospitals- Boo! Is Ronnie coming home? You bet your boots!
Love you all,
Chante'
