NieNie

I have read the NieNie Diaries every now and again. More often I would make my way over read her sister's blog, cjane where I would pop in every once in awhile to see how her battle with infertility was going and was so excited when the Chief finally arrived.

What I love about NieNie's blog are the great ideas she comes up with. One of my favorites was just a couple of weeks ago. Go check it out.

It broke my heart when I checked in on cjane and learned that Nie and her husband had been in a plane accident and had been seriously burned and the pilot had lost his life - From what I understand Nie is burned over 80% of her body and both she and her husband are in chemical induced comas as the long healing process begins.

One of the many beautiful miracles I have been reading about regarding this tragedy over the last couple of days is the incredible out pouring of love and support from this blogging community of which NieNie has become an integral member. There have been auctions, a balloon launch and a website set up to make it easy to make contributions - many of these things were done by people who have never even met Nie.

There really are good people out there. Please take a moment and say a little prayer for Nie and her husband as well as her family and if you feel so inclined, visit this web site and make a donation.

I just found out the news as well. A couple of days ago and cried a bit when I found out. So sad but I am amazed how positive cjane is blogging about it.

Hope you are doing good.
