Did you know...?


Did you know that it takes blood donations(plasma spun from whole blood, and direct plasma donations) from over 300 people to make this 3 gram vial?

Intragam is essentially other peoples antibodies, Immunoglobulin,which are infused via IV into Immuno-deficient adults and children, to give their bodies a chance to mount a response to infection.

Intragam allows our little guy Zak a second chance at living a normal and healthy life as possible.

He is infused with 2 of these 3 gram vials every 4 weeks.

It has changed his life. It has changed our whole family's life.

As a mum, I want to thank everyone who donates blood...everyone who selflessly gives...so that my little man and many others can have another chance.

For me, that is an amazingly wonderful gift, so from the bottom of my heart, Thank you♥

welcome 2010...

Yes, I know, Im a little slow on the uptake!

Can you believe it is nearly the end of january?

I don't do new years resolutions, but this year I would like to try and keep my blog updated a little more regularly...



Firstly, a little share of a LO completed for a weekly challenge at scrapchat...the challenge was to scrap something you lost...the journaling reads..."parts of 2009 saw me a little lost. It was a big year for us as a family, and the challenges we were forced to meet.For me personally,I was so caught up with the needs of everyone else,I lost the ability to appreciate the simple things in life...the simple pleasures..."










This one is the latest LO I have completed...and I've done it again...it seems I can't scrap a LO without bling,thickers,rubons,flowers and butterflys....I desperately needed to update our family LO thats in a frame on the mantle above our fireplace, so this is it!
This is a really bad pic, sorry, I had already framed it when I took the pic! Oops!
A LO created for a friend...

And finally, Russ got himself a new tatt....on his chest above his heart...♥



I hope 2010 is treating you all well so far...I'm hoping it will be a good year for us☺
Thanks for reading xxx
