Saving money on postage whilst helping out

[nursedarry]

Just FYI, in lieu of sending holiday cards this year (or spending Christmas in Edinburgh Royal Infirmary), I thought I'd give something back to the Somerville Foundation which, like you, supported me during a very chaotic year. This foundation supports adults born with a heart condition. I've signed up as a Helpline Volunteer and Medical Proof-Reader.

It's strange to think that without my mitral valve packing up, I might never have known I'd been born with Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (PAPVC), and I was fortunate to have both repaired at the same time, exactly eight months ago. Thank you again to everyone for all your prayers and kind words.

As I feel very fortunate to be in good health THIS holiday season, I'd like to do what I can to help others be able to say the same next year.

What a wonderful idea!

EXCELLENT idea. I am all for prezzies in the form of charitable donations and am happy to forego a card for such a good cause. You are a Good Person. Despite your cougar-like fondness for young Quidditch players.

That's really cool that you're volunteering in that way. I know I'm not alone in feeling very happy and relieved that you have made such a wonderful recovery. ♥
And that is a really wild icon!

Now that's a recipe for some very good karma!
Wishing you continued good health & happiness.

It's real sweet of you to help out like that. Good luck. I'd make a donation if I had ANY money right now, but I need to get out of debt first *scratches back of head* xD
