I spoke with Stacy (the young woman who lost her baby to Shaken Baby Syndrome) and told her that some friends and I would like to help her with Christmas this year for her little 2 1/2 year old boy, Jaden. She got great big ole tears in her eyes and was so appreciative. I told her that we also wanted to do something for her. That's when the tears started spilling over.
She said she never bought anything for herself any longer. When I asked her where she liked to shop (keep in mind she is only 24 years old), she didn't even know. She said, "Penney's? Dillard's? I really don't know."
I think in order to give Stacy the opportunity to buy Santa for Jaden, I think I'll just give her a gift card. If you want to donate, please either see me at church or you can mail it to me at work at:
Susan Conwell
Wesley Court office
2617 Antilley Road
Abilene, TX 79606
Thank you so much.
Working to spread the joy!
