I found Heather's blog Especially Heather a few months ago.  I clicked on a sidebar button that said "Pray for Emma Grace" (I was curious because I have an Emma Grace of my own) and was amazed at the story I read.  Emma Grace has had multiple problems since before she was even born, I won't try to explain it when you can read it in Heather's words.  Through all the hard times, Heather's faith in God came shining through, and was such an inspiration to read. 

A few days ago I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that Heather had just found out that she has a brain tumor.  Despite the pain and anguish this has caused, every day she writes a post that is so full of God's love and faith in Him that I want to cry when I read it.  Last night she wrote a post called You Picked the Wrong Girl, which I dare you to read without crying.

BooMama has organized a fund raiser for TODAY - APRIL 18 to help Heather out with her upcoming trip to the Mayo Clinic.   Go read Heather's blog.  Prayerfully consider a love offering to help out a mom of three kids who wants to live to see them grow up.  Emma Grace and her siblings need their mom.

**Updated on 4-23-07 to add… last time I checked the total donations so far were up to $17,500.00 (plus a bank gave a check for $1,675.00.)  God is so awesome.  Thank you if you donated.  Don't forget to pray for Heather.  She leaves for the Mayo Clinic tomorrow.
