Kelli Needs a Kidney
01/13/07

This time, unlike the last two mama's I've watched disappear off the web and outta the world, we ... you and me ... and yours ... WE ... can make a difference. We can actually do something toward keeping one mama with her family.

On Tuesday, January 16, BooMama is putting together a donation event. Why? Because Kelli's COBRA insurance is about to leave that little window of time where it's just incredibly expensive and blast off into the outer limits of Out of this World Expensive! Read about it here: Let the Lovin' Begin.

So ... in addition to collecting up the banner and putting it on your web site ...

Write about how this time we have a chance to make a difference. This time we aren't standing around with our hands tied. Not that prayer is standing around wringing your hands ... but this time ... we get to also participate in a very material way.

Then send emails to the people you know. and call others. BooMama's website address is very easy to give out: booMama.net.

Let's just blow Kelli and booMama outta their minds.

I believe God can do many great things ... and believe me ... our little bits of money is only the beginning of what needs to happen ... but it is a beginning ... it is us showing up with our little fishes and loaves.

So ... I'm counting on you to take your little baskets out into the world and see how God can use them to fill Kelli's donation bucket.

Okay?

OKay!

Hugs!

I enjoy your comments. And I want you to enjoy reading each other's comments. To that end purpose, I moderate comments. If you're impatient, MeeboMe.

Commenting Ideas
  • If you do not have a blog or site, skip the "web site" line, pull a name or "handle" out of your head, write a note, push the button. (No excuses!)
  • If this entry reminds you of a story of a similar place in time in your life, you are welcome to tell your story.
  • If you discover your story is taking more than 3 or 4 paragraphs (and if you have a place on the web for your writings), I will not be insulted if you take your story back and finish it at your own site. But then I will be disappointed if you don't come back and leave me a summary of your story and a link -- in the comments.
  • If you have already written a story about a similar place in time, please feel free to leave a summary and a link.
  • It's never too late to make a comment or tell a story.

Hey Pam, FYI in case I didn't already let you know. I did a post re: Kelli's situation and I've a link/button up in my sidebar. I also put it on my family's blogs (there are two.) It looks like the response at BooMama's has been good. I wonder what a Technorati search would show?

~Wow ... I didn't even think of that! Thanks so much! I feel like we've done a good job of passing out the baskets ... so now ... we pray for the blessings.

    Why does this Site Exist?
    10/26/06
    My website is largely my memoir ... my musings, photos, encounters, life's stories.

    But what really thrills me is that when I let go of my stories, it's like sending out little sail boats out on expeditions. Very often they come back to me filled with other people's stories. Continue...
