I think a lot of people know what it is if you call it "cotton wool baby" disease.<br /><br />Hey if you get a chance to look for the dvd "My Flesh and Blood" it's a documentary about a woman who adopted 16 special needs children. 2 of them had EB so maybe you'll be interested in seeing it.<br /><br />I once met someone whose blog I follow, it was very exciting! It was a 12 year old boy who battled cancer all his life. He was most unimpressed at being recognized, but his mom was thrilled! I got an email from her a few days later. I also went to the funeral of a child I never met but followed her blog for 3 years. It's amazing how "close" you can become to someone you see every day through the computer screen.<br /><br />PS. I love Target too! It's better than Walmart (Walmart is called Big W in Australia, who knows why. Burger King is called Hungry Jacks here too. Exact same places though. Weird.)Marienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-46205750917239228992009-06-07T17:07:26.698-04:002009-06-07T17:07:26.698-04:00I LOVE Target.

I'm also part of...Thanks for the EB awareness. I'm also part of a group of people with something that most people have never heard of. It is a birth injury called Erb's Palsy or Brachial Plexus Injury. I was at very, very high risk (can you say 3 babies with broken bones and 2 others with problems)before our youngest was more severely injured (broken right arm and paralyzed left arm) and I still did not know about it. It was preventable and NO ONE told me.<br /><br />Sorry for the rant. Just when you asked, "How did I not know?", it struck a cord. That is exactly how I felt. Thanks for spreading the word about EB and I'll keep telling people about Brachial Plexus Injuries and Erb's Palsy.<br /><br />Erb's Palsy can be, in many cases, prevented. Once injured the child can face life-long disability.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />KimberlyRaisingOliveshttp://raisingolives.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-52520689317816363542009-06-07T14:10:43.357-04:002009-06-07T14:10:43.357-04:00Well, targetholic, we have a friend who is a graph...Well, targetholic, we have a friend who is a graphic arts designer and one of her designs has just been picked up for the Fall.

The stuff nightmares are made of...). In fact I just checked and it's the only state where there isn't one. Clearly, this oversight must be corrected.<br /><br />I don't like WalMart, but there is one near here that just opened a year ago so it's still fairly new and clean, that one is okay.Sashkanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-68174658813467221402009-06-07T00:31:04.207-04:002009-06-07T00:31:04.207-04:00I can't believe you were at the Dairi-O in Sta...I can't believe you were at the Dairi-O in Stanleyville. We are frequenters of Dairi-O, and we live in King (where Dairi-O originated). Ours is still a walkuptothewindowandplaceyourorder kind of place, but there is rumor that that is changing soon. You should venture to King sometime. I know I'm biased, but our Dairi-O is better! Hahaha! I would love to run into you sometime, and would definitely recognize you and have to come over to meet sweet little Jonah. I know you're not ready for it yet (germs and all), but you need to plan a "MckPicnic" of your own. I'm sad that I can't got to MckMama's picnic - you know because it would require either flying or a REALLY long drive. However, I go/come to Winston all the time. We could call it a Jonic (you know kind of like Jonut). It would be a blast! I think we could give MckMama and her crew a run for their money. We southerners like to eat - I think we could do it up right! In the meantime (while I'm waiting for the Jonic plans), I will be praying for Jonah and for you guys always.<br />Love, Melanie<br />kevandmel@hotmail.comMelanienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-41488304327369920802009-06-06T22:27:29.986-04:002009-06-06T22:27:29.986-04:00You never cease to encourage me.

It makes SUCH a difference for any new parent, and I imagine it's an even bigger deal when you are limited in where you can take your baby. <br /><br />You're so funny about WM and Target! We live less than a mile from WM, so I use it ALL THE TIME and spend WAY too much money there. But when I do make the trek to Target, I always buy more than I intend. So much cute stuff!<br /><br />Thanks for the info about the magnet. I certainly didn't give to get something in return, but I like the idea of the magnet for raising awareness. I will make contact to see what the issue may be. <br /><br />Have a wonderful Sunday!<br /><br />--Kelley in GA (my blog address is queenkelley.com)jandklandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03228086978737796576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-83724006846795739772009-06-06T16:34:02.826-04:002009-06-06T16:34:02.826-04:00Another great post as always!

Yet yesterday, I went the extra miles just because I love it.

It's *very* close to my house and in a different state than my Target with cheaper taxes, esp on food.<br /><br />2. I do price comparisons at Wal-mart, where I bring in the weekly ads from other stores and Wal-mart honors their prices. So I get the best prices on everything.<br /><br />But I do agree that Target is appealing and much nicer. :)Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11387011004798871747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-81929473367672430872009-06-06T09:51:07.886-04:002009-06-06T09:51:07.886-04:00Oh my.. if I had only known about the pump holder ...Oh my.. if I had only known about the pump holder thingy...
