This is a very difficult post for me to write, but a family that I love very much needs our support. My best friend and her husband discovered during an ultrasound yesterday that their baby did not have a heartbeat. She was nineteen weeks pregnant and they were elated to find out if they were having a boy or girl. I met them there to share in their excitement. An extreme high dropped to an extreme low. She went on to deliver little Benjamin at 2:00 this morning and held her little sweetheart for the first and last time. I can only begin to imagine what they are going through. Instead of planning on bringing their precious one home, they are planning a funeral. My heart is so heavy for them.
Obviously, there are expenses and coming up with a way to pay for that should be the last thing on their minds. If you want to help them cover burial expenses and possibly a little extra to help in any way while they are grieving, I have added a PayPal button below for you to do that.
I am donating one photo session with digital files to one person who has donated.
Rules:
1. Donations of $10.00 or more.
2. The shoot must take place in January 2010 within an hour of Lafayette, LA (Baton Rouge is acceptable).
3. The shoot is for one family/couple/individual – no large groups or events.
4. You can enter more than once, and you can also enter for other people.
5. Proof of your donation is necessary.
To enter:
1. Donate $10 or more using the PayPal button below.
2. Leave a comment on this blog post.
Winner will be announced Wednesday night. You have until Wednesday at 8:00 pm CST to donate and leave a comment for a chance to win.
I know that finances can be tight, especially during the holiday season. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping and giving.
*Note: Feel free to comment to show your support even if you are unable to donate right now.
