Addi's first fundraising event raised a whopping
$2,521!!!
Words can't describe the gratitude I feel. I am especially grateful for Katie Wells over @ Katie Wells photography for getting the ball rolling on all this fund raising business. I am soooo very, very grateful for all the donations, large and small, towards FOP research. As a mother of a child that has this horrible disease, I can attest to the fact that I feel pretty powerless in all this except when I blog and try to promote IFOPA donations. Being able to do something about all this gives me hope. A gift not easily given to a pessimist who would rather be pleasantly surprised than have her heart let down. I was indeed, pleasantly surprised my friends.
Now to pleasantly surprise all of you!
Are you ready for this?
I bet you can hardly wait...

Sleepsia's full body pillow was designed specifically to be hugged by side sleepers to keep the hips, legs, and spine aligned. The fill is gel-infused, CertiPUR-US certified foam, with a shredded memory foam inner core. Sleepers who love the way memory foam conforms to pressure, but also need help staying cool at night should give this body pillow a try. The fill is breathable, the cover is moisture-wicking and, in my experience, it never trapped my body heat.
