Hi my name is Tammy. I'm trying desperately to assist my mother who has fallen into a pit of despair after losing my baby sister in February of this year. My sister Wendy was 36, she was deaf/blind and disabled from birth, due to a one-in-a- million gene defect. She died of heart disease. My mother's grief has led to many phobias and mental health issues. I have no choice but to move her in with me and my husband. I need money to make this happen. The only thing I have of worth to pledge- is years of books that I have read and collected. I have read a book, twice a week for over 20 years. And yes...I have them all! I have made a list of the books/authors that I am going to part with. (e-mail me for the list) Among them you will find recent best sellers, autobiographies, old books, odd books, self help books, cook books, there is something for everyone. I figure I can ship them for around $5 which would make my goal $1000
The money will be used to get her car fixed, storage and moving expenses. If there is anything left I will spend the balance to get my sister out of that plastic box and into a real urn.
You can e-mail me for the list, before you pledge. When you pledge let me know which book you pledged for, so that I can remove it from my list. As soon as I recieve each pledge, I will ship the book media mail, via US postal service to anywhere in US or Canada.
Please let me know what you think of the books and I will keep you posted on my mother's progress!
