For months now friends have been asking if they could do something to help Meg - both financially and in-kind. For me, the whole situation and looking after Meg has been all I could think about. The thought of doing something in addition to this was overwhelming. So to date, I haven't accepted or started anything in addition to just simply, taking care of Meg, learning about her condition and seeing how the whole healthcare system works in this area (no mean feat believe me!)
A month ago an old friend had a suggestion to start a fundraiser for Meg and her future needs.

It was a little out of my capacity time wise to start a fundraiser then run with it... however it has been at the back of my mind. Meg's needs and wants are always my priority and it is a catch 22 situation... I just haven't had the energy or time lately.
My old friend Carol Binder, asked if she could take charge of the fundraising.. having a background in event co ordination Carol Binder (a local girl) rounded up a few friends, mostly local and started to build it from the ground up... gathering help along the way from all of the lovely friends I have who have offered their assistance.
To date we are looking into running a raffle over winter then having a huge fundraising bash towards the end of the year.
I'll keep you up to date with any developments along the way.
