Pregnant after IF

Cards for illinigal-update with email addy

Hey guys, I wanted to put together a card care package for illinigal. I know that after I had my m/c last year all the wonderful and thoughtful cards really helped me get through a tough time. I know it's such a small thing, but it did really help. I looked at them often and still have all of them.

She lives here in town and I can get her address and or take it to her. We just met a few weeks ago and I am just devastated for them. I can PM people my address. Maybe wait a few weeks.

Any other ideas?

UPDATE

You can email me at sweetdahlia77 at gmail dot com

I will also answer PMs with address tonight. We are going to dinner, but will be home later tonight.

Here is new info below

 

I just set up a new email so you can PM me or email me here. It might be easier since PM and the bump are being weird today.

I can give everyone paypal info if you want to donate a few dollars to buy a necklace or other items. Someone suggested getting a star in their names.

Please also suggest things.

The end date for collecting money will be August 26th and for cards it will be a little longer since I would have to order from Esty or somewhere and have it shipped. So I say Sept 5th for cards. I should have something ordered and ready soon after that I would hope. Leaves time for last minute cards.

I am also starting IVF #2 anyday, but will make this top priority as well. DH can help, he is great at keeping track and I have asked Worms and Albjag to help me keep track of the funds collected so that everyone feels better about sending one person money.
