Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Not only are you smart, persistent and so thoughtful to us all on the boards, but you are artistically talented as well. I hope you do well with selling the jewelry. My ex doctor's wife does all those breast cancer walks (he goes too, so he is never in the office and when he is/was he was useless- the hospital now thinks he's a joke). Anyway she sells all kinds of stuff in the office. Her daughter makes jewelry (a portion goes toward the charity) and she raffles off a blanket she crochets every year. I even bought one of the bracelets that I can't work the clasp on in hopes of getting better treatment from the doc. Didn't work though.

Now, here's a thought (rather wicked). How about putting a picture of a very sweet but pathetic looking child and a message: Help Save This Child" A little story about how she needs treatment for a rare disease and the treatment isn't covered by insurance or any charitable agencies. In fact, I bet you have a picture of yourself as a child. One where the child is trying to smile but can't quite make it because of all the pain. A kind of waif like image. It would be somewhat honest - what's a few years. Maybe you could get Sally Struthers to do a tv infomercial appeal thing.
