An idea to donate altered notebooks
I found an outlet for the altered composition books! I used to help facilitate a grief support group at our hospital for parents who suffered pregnancy loss, stillbirth, or neonatal death, and there was a note in our church bulletin today about the group at the hospital that makes stuff (outfits, burial outfits, hats, blankets etc) for preemies and those babies that die.
And I started thinking, how could I help? I can't knit hats. I can't sew outfits. And then I thought of journalling, and notebooks. So I called the coordinator and I think she really likes the idea.
*warm fuzzies* I so don't need another thing to do, but who cares? This is so near and dear to my heart, parents so appreciate those things that acknowledge that they had a *baby* and I just can't not do it.
So if you are so inclined, consider something like this. Most hospitals have groups that do something for parents who have a loss, and you can call and find out who's in charge.
