Pictures And More For Parker

Got a dollar? 

Please take a few moments and read about Pictures for Parker at The Original Cracker Jack Site.  Here's the idea:

Let Izabel draw/color a picture in your name for a $1.00 donation to Parker's Medical Fund. I myself know that sometimes even a dollar is hard to come by, but maybe you have some loose change sitting around that you could use. Izabel's pictures will be well worth your pennies, nickels and dimes. What we will be doing is creating a unique masterpiece in your name and then bind them together to make a colorful book to send to Parker for him to look at. Each page will be an Izzy original and will contain a picture of you (if you'd like) and your web address.

A $1.00 donation (Cash/Check/Money Orders) will get you a wonderfully created masterpiece designed in your name and all proceeds will be sent to Parker. This fundraiser will go through Wednesday, May 14th, 2008.

If you do not know Parker, then please take a few moments to meet him.  He has yet another surgery scheduled this month which will require a long, intense recovery.  And as he recovers, his parents will be struggling with the burden of one more humongous hospital bill and doctors' fees stacked on top of existing ones not being paid by their insurance company.

Also, Bunny Rose Cottage is having a Mother's Day sale at her Etsy Shop to benefit Parker.

And do not forget this chance to love on Parker over at Big Blueberry Eyes.

Above all...please pray for Parker.  I love this kid.  He is itching to be healthy enough to drive his mom insane.  Let's help his family get him there.

This is such a beautiful idea -- I stuck a note on my computer so I'll remember to do this in the morning (I'm so behind on blog stuff!) Kisses to Parker, Tammy! :)

Hi! I'm a mom of a special needs child (cp) and was wondering if you have ever heard of the Katie Beckett program? (That is what it is called here in Wisconsin, in other states it may have another name.) It is medical assistance provided by the state in addition to your regular insurance. It is figured from the income of your child, not mom and dad's. It "picks up" what insurance does not pay. Also, Shriner's Hospitals will treat a child orthopedically, charging insurance, but not the parent. (no co-pays) These things have greatly helped our family through our son's surgeries. Medical assistance also pays for diapers in children over five years of age. Your local Family Support center also can help pay up to $1,200 yearly for medical equipment, depending on their yearly budget.
May God bless you as you care for your sweet peas!
