What if it were you?

For the past few days, I have been talking alot about The Barefoot Sisterhood and their mission to help other mothers diagnosed with Skin Cancer. The Barefoot Sisterhood has made it their mission to help others who cannot afford the type of treatment that they need.

What would you do if it were you? Do you know that a majority of major insurance carriers have stipulations in their policy that cap or limit the dollar amount of treatment that one can recieve? Did you know that the limit is usually much lower then what treatments will actually cost?

I am sure that all of us at one point in our lives have been faced with inadequate health insurance coverage to take care of our needs. I know all to well that sinking feeling of knowing that I cannot afford the treatment that I need. Fourtuantely, alot of times, the treatment isnt needed to save your life...

But with skin cancer, every day that you wait, every week that you let go by without seeking or getting proper treatment is like signing your death sentence.

Organizations like The Barefoot Sisterhood are seeking to change that. Every dollar that is donated to The Barefoot Sisterhood is used to help another mother with skin cancer secure the treatment that she needs.

You can help. Until April 10th 2009, I am raffling off a Gift Basket filled with great skin care products from Votre Vu. This basket is valued at over $100.00

Raffle tickets are $1.00 for 1, $5.00 for 6, or $20.00 for 30.

Some of the products to be included in the gift basket are:

Votre Vu Duette Handcreme and lip balm
Votre Vu spf 30 sun block
Votre Vu Snap Dragon Beauty drink

And more

Be sure to get your raffle tickets. Please send all paypal to jwlrymama08@yahoo.com put Votre Vu in the subject

Thanks

$1.00 is all it takes to make a difference...

Imagine this: You are sitting in the doctor's office as the doctor walks in with a grim look on his face. You are not expecting the news he is about to give you.
That mole you had biopsied last week...it's skin cancer and must be treated immediately

Now imagine this, after the inital shock wears off, you realize you lack adequate health care coverage to get this taken care of effectively or efficiently.

That is where The Barefoot Sisterhood comes in.

Every dollar that they take in is used to help mom's who are faced with this exact same situation.

Could you spare a dollar?

From now until april 10th, we are running a fundraiser for The Barefoot Sisterhood. All you have to do is buy a raffle ticket and you are entered to win a Votre Vu Skin Care basket valued at $100.00

Raffle tickets are: $1.00 for 1
$5.00 for 6
or $20.00 for 30

All it takes is $1.00 to help save another mother who is faced with one of the hardest battles she ever has to face.

Paypal all donations to jwlrymama08@yahoo.com

You Can Win a Votre Vu Skin Care Basket

Over the past few weeks, I have gotten the pleasure of getting to know a fellow mom thru another social networking site. As I have gotten to know her, I have read her heartbreaking and heartwarming story on her battle and subsequent victory with skin cancer. Twice.

She is someone whom inspires me, because as a mom, as a woman she overcame so much when the odds were stacked against her.

Thru her battle, she has become an advocate for prevention of skin cancer. Every journal she posts, weather about that subject or not, is full of love, hope, and happiness.
