One of our own.

Many years ago, I was pregnant. That pregnancy, for whatever reason, was not meant to be. I miscarried my twins and even today my heart aches for that loss. I do however, look at my children and I feel the love, and blessings they bring to my life each day.

That said let me tell you that none of my children have had a serious illness before. I do not know how I would cope with it.

Such is the case of Kat. A fellow blogger who is known for her compassion for others, her honesty and her amazing ability to be there for others.

Lately she has been delt a serious of blows. One of them financial, the other, more severe, was the diognosis of her son. He has Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Better known as ALL.

This little boy and his mother need us. They need all the love and support we can give to them. It was suggested by one of her regular readers and then passed onto us via blogland, that maybe we can help them.

Kat has been out of work and now, her phone was disconnected and she is without internet, which is her support line, it doesn't look like she will be going back to work anytime soon because of traveling and seeking treatment for her son. I want to make sure that I'm clear on the fact that she has not asked anyone for money. She has not asked anyone for anything, that's the way Kat is.

So, I'm going to do what she would never do and step up to the plate and ask my regular readers to go to her site and learn her story. Her heartache is so clear and tangible it becomes the heartache of all of us.

If you can afford it, please send her a little something. It doesn't have to be much, just a couple of dollars could help. Maybe she could take Brad out for ice cream with the five dollars you can afford to send.

If you want to help, here's how to do it.

1. Go to www.paypal.com
2. Login if you have a paypal account. If not, create one for yourself.
3. Click on Send Money at the top
4. Follow the instructions.

Her email address is katriana.delucean@gmail.com. That's all the information of hers that you'll need. She hasn't registered for a paypal account (yet) and it will say that. Don't sweat that, i'm sure she'll set it up once she can get online long enough to do so. The cash won't go anywhere in the meantime.

Again, if you can help financially, that’s great. If not, please visit her blog at http://kats_surrender.blogspot.com/ and at least let her know you are thinking of her. Let her know she isn’t alone in all of this.

Together we can see her and her son through this horribly trying time for them, even if it is something as simple as spreading her story so that others can pray for them and help them if possible.

I know first hand the power of love and prayers. My readers have shown me so much compassion and as much as I appreciate it and am grateful for it, I know that Kat and her son need it more then I do right now. So let’s show her what we can do!
