Her Bad Auction
If you haven’t already, please visit Her Bad Auction, to support Catherine’s (of Her Bad Mother) nephew Tanner.
Tanner has Duchenne’s Muscular Dystrophy, in which his muscles are deteriorating and he may soon be in a wheel chair, and eventually his muscles will not function at all.
Catherine’s post was heart wrenching and the title of her entry is “The Heart is a Muscle.” It made me weep and it made me smile and it made me appreciate all the things I take for granted in my life.
Catherine and I have never met, but I read her blog daily and I adore the way she writes and the love she shares with us, throught her writing.
Kristen of Motherhood Uncensored, Julie of MotherGooseMouse and many other sponsors have pulled together to create an auction with the proceeds being donated to Tanner. The full list of sponsors can be found here.
There are many amazing raffle items to be won. The auction is not open until December 13, but you must head over there to scope out the items you want to bid on. Buy raffle tickets, please! I’ve got my eye on the iPod shuffle.
Your donations, your purchase of tickets and your support means so much to Catherine and to all the sponsors. And it would mean a lot to me, because we never know when we’ll need help ourselves someday, and this blog community is amazing and wonderful…there truly are no words.
You may also get your children involved in writing a letter to Tanner. I’m going to help Dawson write his letter, today.
So, please, help make a difference this holiday season.
