Card Drive for Garrett!!

Garrett, is family to my friend, Colleen Holmes, who is also the owner and creator of "The Outlawz Challenge Group".  Colleen wrote to all the Design Team Members and asked is we would consider senidng of a card to this wonderul young man.  I am honored and proud to and will send mine out, early In February, to arrive for his 16th Birthday!
 
 Garrett was attacked by a dog, as a toddler back in 2002.  You can visit his Facebook Page  to learn more about this amazing teen!

This request came from his Mom, bless her heart!!

Garrett will be 16 on February 29th.  He recently read about Safyre and her wishes and he thought it would be awesome that made him wonder why he never gets mail.  I think it would awesome for him to check the mailbox this time and get a bunch of birthday cards.  Garrett is blind, but we will read to him every card he receives!
 
Some know that Garrett was attacked by a dog in Jan. 2002. He was left with severe facial scarring, no eyelids, muscle, tissue or tear glands in either eye.  He is only able to see lights and shadows.  He has since had 15 surgeries and will eventually have more.  We continue to search for ways for him to possibly gain his vision back.  Prayers are always welcome ♡ !
 
Garrett will turn 16 on February 29th!!

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
