Hello Everyone...Well I know it has been a bit since we have blogged, but have been busy, busy, busy....Proud to say Paula is still doing well at home. She is behaving like a good girl should. She has been visited by her home health nurses and physical therapy. She is actually trying to tell us how to run the show at this point, but hey we are not complaining. We know she feels good when she tries to tell us what to do!!! lol She and I have had several conversations and she is just in sure utter AWE at all of the outreach and support she has received from friends, co-workers and even just the community as strangers have started stepping forward. If you didn't already know this lady has a lot of people pulling for her. I, myself, have had goosebumps several times when I receive messages from people wanting to help benefit her cause.
So we are still in DIRE need of help with donations and volunteers as well as the need for all of the previously listed garage/bake sale and lemonade stand items. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, I repeat, PLEASE let us know if you can do anything at all to help out. There is a lot of work to be done and just a handful of us who are doing it, which creates an overabundance of a heavy load. We will be having a meeting tomorrow night, Tuesday, May 12, 2009, at 7 pm at the Cleveland County YMCA. This will be a very productive meeting and we will be discussing a lot of important details and producing a schedule for the sale, which is just a few weeks away.
Heather has started placing coin collection containers at businesses to help promote Paula's need and would love to hear if anyone else has any great places they would like us to add to the list.
We have ads posted on Craigslist calling for all donations we can get and Scott has been busy working hard to get them all picked up. People have started responding to the Appeal letters and I am so very thankful. Terry said it was a great feeling to go check the mail and have no bills in it to pay!! Whatever you do, please keep Paula and her family in your prayers and just keep us going with strength to get us through all of these tasks ahead and the difficult times we may encounter.
Lastly before I close, Paula is completely out of sick time and could really use the help of her fellow co-workers to donate even just 1 day of their time to help get her through until she can formally retire in June. This would be huge. So if you could, please PASS this information onto others who may be eligible for donating.
As always any questions, please feel free to post comments, send messages to any of us or even call.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU....We Really Do Appreciate Everything You Have Done And Are Doing to help us!!!
