I'm sure most of you by now have heard about the Grimshaw family. If not let me introduce you. There is Rob and Amber and their sweet daughters, Joslyn 8 and Savannah 2.Rob has recently been diagnosed with Epitheliod Sarcoma Cancer. This form of cancer is so rare that there have only been 8 cases in the US in the last 15 years. Because of this, there isn't a lot of research available, and treatments are all experimental. Unfortunately because it is "experimental" it is not covered by their insurance.
I cannot even begin to imagine what they are going through.
I believe the most important thing that we can do right now is show our love and support for him and his sweet family.
A Bake Sale is being put together for this Saturday, July 2nd. It will be held at my home from 10am-5pm. We would be most appreciative of any help you may be able to give. Here are some of the things we are in need of.
- donations of baked goods or other homemade items. we are not limiting it to just sweets. homemade salsas, jams, rolls, we even have some tamales coming so anything that you are good at making.... we'd love to have.
- donations of crafts. we will have a table or two set up for homemade crafts.
- we are also trying to put together one heck of a raffle prize. we would love to get a couple more donations from companies or individuals. gift certificates would be wonderful. an example of a couple things we have so far are: a free full set of braces, nothing bundt cake gift certificate, crafts and gift certificates from some of our favorite online shops. raffle tickets will be sold for $10.
- please take a minute and come by on saturday and buy a cookie or two. every little bit helps!
- if you are unable to make it, maybe you'd like to head over and make a straight donation. you can do that HERE.
- please help spread the word. tell your friends and family about this and the other fundraisers that are planned for the near future.
and please keep them in your prayers.
