Have you heard of the Celebration Chain? No? Neither had I until yesterday when I received an e-mail informing me that Michael had made a "celebration" of me!
I went to the link and was so touched and very happy to see that my lovely Mike had created something special for me, my own celebration doll. I sent the link to a couple of friends so that they could see and to my surprise, I found later last night that Sandra of Sandra's Scribbles had added a hug to it and then, this morning, that Jean had done the same thing. My friends, that means a lot to me. There is nothing like a hug and the good wishes of your friends.
This is such a wonderful idea that I decided to give it publicity.
Some of you will have been touched by bc yourselves and many of you will have a relative or friend who has. I thought maybe you would like to create a "doll" for them. You see, for every doll created money is donated to charity and the person concerned gets something very personal by way of their own celebration.
So far over 8,700 women have had dolls created for them.
So you can see exactly what I am talking about, here is the link to my doll:-
If you would like to create a doll for someone that you know and care about then go to this next link, scan right down to the bottom of the page and there it is - the celebration chain. Just follow the instructions which are very easy. Here is the link:-
It is such a great idea that I felt prompted to write about it for all those of you who, like me, did not know that this existed. Remember, you will also be donating to charity.
Love,

I just popped over from Sugar's to tell you thanks for the idea of the banner you came up with to remember those J-Landers who had passed on; what a wonderful tribute to them all; Sugar did a great job designing the tag you had in mind

First, your graphics are so pretty here on this entry.
Next, I did not know of this site. I love the idea and it was so sweet of your friend to do that for you.
Hope you have a good day, and I too and sending you a virtual hug.

I will visit the site and see what it is all about, although the person I feel needs a hug the most, is my sister - her daughter is suffering from recurring cancer at the moment. I was talking to my sister in law only yesterday, and she was saying how much she would like to give Babs a hug, for all she is going through, and has been going through for years. She nursed both her parents in law through cancer, our step father, an aunt and more recently, her partner. It seems so cruel that now she is nursing her daughter through this dreadful disease.
all the best to you Jeannette
