Harsh at this may sound this Christmas may very well be Victoria's last if she does not get the life-saving transplant she so desperately needs. Her lungs no longer work properly for her and she relies on oxygen to breath. She is 23 years old and has Cystic Fibrosis. This is the end stage of Cystic Fibrosis - it is not nice to think about is it? A young woman who should have her whole life ahead of her who is struggling to survive - who has waited over 3 years for "that call" to give her that chance of a life. This is the possible future for my children - which is why I work hard giving as much time as I can to raise awareness for the dreadful condition which is Cystic Fibrosis. Take a moment to help this Christmas if you can and either contribute to the Xmas ebay Auction by donating "something" ... "anything" - it all makes a difference and the idea of this Campaign is that it will drum up much awareness on Twitter via the Celeb's who have already donated - we hope they will re-tweet to their followers letting them know about the ebay Auction and in turn maybe they will bid on their item. It doesn't take a second to re-tweet so I hope this will be possible. It also takes very little time in the lives of someone "famous" "well known" to contribute something as small as a signed picture - let's hope more consider doing this between now and the start of the Auctions on 23rd December ... time is running out .... but more than anything .... time is running out for Victoria. Take a moment to read her Blog - and then look at your own day and grumbles - we have nothing to really complain about - do we?
Victoria's Blog
Please also send her a SMILEY Tweet (@Tor87) - they do make a difference and make her see that there are people, strangers, who care and want to help. Then if you have a couple of minutes you might also consider signing the Organ Donor Register - after all, you can't take it with you - LIVE LIFE THEN GIVE LIFE. Thank you.
Organ Donor Register - GO SIGN IT - PLEASE!
Victoria .... waiting and waiting and waiting .....
