crazy eyes and non-crazy eyes....
I can't get the photo to enlarge enough for me to get a close up on my crazy eyes!
Wow, that is an amazing amount of money to raise for one school's fundraiser!
There's really not much one can say from an outsider's point of view about those kind of situations, although terribly enough nowadays so many people can have their own tidbit of history and experience to share when it comes to suicide and mental illnesses.
But I think it's beautiful to see how much everybody rallied for this young girl and for the cause.
Especially so in the sense that I feel a lot of people nowadays have a sense of disillusion and lack of faith in the younger generations, because their lifestyle and interests and values are so different (or seem so different) from what they used to be. But then, look at what they can do!
This is our/this generation's plague, in a sense.
But at least I feel like we'll keep fighting more and more for awareness, and your girls and their friends and their class did a tremendous job of that. So really, props to them is what it comes down to.
I like your descriptive name.
hahaha, yeah! After it was all official, it was like a huge sigh if relief! hahaha!The second photo is wayyy better.
You could chalk it up to this:
Photo #1. OMG! OMG! OMG! I'm getting married!!!!!
Photo #2. aaaaaahhhhhh..... married.
hahaha, yeah! After it was all official, it was like a huge sigh if relief! hahaha!
WOW! That is all. Okay, I guess I am not that short on words; that is an amazing success! That should be a big help to Molly's family.
Just read about Molly. Its so sad that people think they're life is so bad, that they feel they must end it all.
Usually not the one we would expect either.
In the end, I'm glad things are working out for her and that so much money was raised to help her and her family.
I tried to get Lady H on here. The division she works for at her work place (my former work place) go out to schools teaching about the dangers of suicide and how to hopefully prevent it. Warning signs, how to get help and to help others. I'll see if I can get her on here to share some more.
That's a fantastic amount! I don't know enough about the Canadian Medical system as to whether or not they cover these sorts of medical issues, but I'm sure that the money raised will be well used by her family for her recovery.
Next round:
1. One last excursion before we leave.
What is it?
Volcano
2. What treat did we eat? (again)
Hmm. Tough one. Since you said we and again, I'm going with Shaved Ice. I was tempted to say the grasshopper shake but then I remembered Kay was the only one that had it.
3. Might as well keep the trend going...
How many beaches do we visit?
Two
4. Did you see it? Of course you did.
It was obvious. If you didn't, don't wine.
Just go back and look.
Bonus points if you saw it.
I know drinking and driving is a big no no. I believe drinking and flying is an even bigger no no. Therefore pass over that Maui wine. I'll sacrifice and drink it to keep everyone safe.
5. So you saw it. But did you see the other one?
More bonus points if you did.
Was it duck season while you were there? If it was, I heard the Donald's are very tasty.
6. What place do we re-visit for a sugary snack?
The only time I remember you specifically mention sugar was Krispy Kreme. So going with Krispy Kreme.
7. Who gets picked for TSA pre-check?
Ruby
8. Who gets patted down at security?
Pkondz
9. Our flight was not on time.
Early or late? How early or how late?
Not on time always signifies late to me. Hour late.
10. What do I unfortunately have to do
when we get home?
Work. That's the most unfortunate thing I can think of.
Our system covers a lot.
But it won't get the family a wheelchair van
to transport Molly to medical appointments.
It won't cover all the costs of Physio, etc.
Some things are covered, some aren't.
<temptedtocopyandpastemylastpost>
Ugh. I know from experience that an acessible van is not cheap. And I didn't realize they didn't cover rehabilitative therapy either. Ugh. I hope that at least the 10K goes a bit of a way to help. And hopefully in the future they might be able to raise more. But how awesome that they were able to raise that much for the family!
That's incredible! What a great cause. I'm sure the kids are so very proud.They raised just over TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS.
And it was quite the story.I just wrote down a story
that others created.
And those others were kids.
They're the real great ones.
As am I.I was (and still am) truly humbled.
That's incredible! What a great cause. I'm sure the kids are so very proud.
