Now is the time you can Help Charlie Heal!
I was first introduced to Sarah Greenman at her blog, La Maison Boheme. It has since become a daily read for me as I enjoy her quirky yet classic approach to life and home. Sarah's second child, Charlie, "had a very rough start in life. About 12 hours after he was born, he began having seizures. An MRI revealed he had suffered an in-utero stroke affecting the right side of his brain. More tests revealed other health issues including a heart murmur, an enlarged PFO (a hole in the heart), a narrow aorta, kidney problems, and a condition called Craniosynostosis."
Charlie is now eight months old and has managed to weather many of the diagnoses, even outgrowing the heart issues. However, in one month Charlie will undergo a major craniofacial operation. Several of Sarah's friends are hosting an online auction on Facebook to support Charlie Greenman. The auction goes live today, July 1st, with bids being accepted through July 3rd. To view the available items, click here for pictures and descriptions. There are lots of handmade goods, children's wear, culinary delights and sessions with some of the most amazing photographers.
Head on over and “Like” Help Charlie Heal on Facebook to stay informed and bid during the auction.
Tempted? Please bid on my collection of rose bud balls.
