Pink Saturday
Friday, May 21, 2010
Stephanie Neilsen writes the blog NieNie, which I read. Sometimes through tears, sometimes in awe and most of the time I come away with the love that Stephanie exudes in everything that she does. She is my inspiration! Here is a link to her story.
Stephanie writes:
"Stephanie Aurora Clark Nielson returns from an almost fatal plane crash. Happy to be blogging again from Utah and recovering too. Four happy children and one sweet husband make her life as good as it gets."
Stephanie just had surgery again, this time to give her a new neck. Her husband, Christian is writing to update all of her readers.
I hope that her new neck makes her feel more beautiful. We can be there for her by sending her a lovely letter or writing a card.
I can imagine that it will be a while for the healing to take place, and well, I thought it was a wonderful opportunity for us to send a card to wish her a speedy recovery.
Maybe we can't be at her hospital door with a bouquet of flowers and pink balloons, but our cards can be waiting for her when she comes home from the hospital.
To make it easy for you, I have created a COLLECTION of artwork that you are welcome to use. Just download whatever you would like. There are three sets containing images in the collection called Cards for NieNie.
Here is her address:
Nie Nie
2250 N. University Parkway 4876
Provo, Utah 84604

Oh Karen, what a touching moment to know that there is a dear soul out there, connected to us all through this wonderful medium of creativity, writing, communication and friendship that has the need to know we care. Thank you for highlighting this and weaving it into your lovely world. And as always, your visits mean the world to me, sweet friend. I am venturing out on watercolors....how about that!!!!

What a beautiful person you are to be so thoughtful, caring and loving.
I will get a card off to her and keep her in my prayers that she will heal quickly....
She is such a survior...I am not sure I would have the courage, even with my God beside me.
Happy Pink Saturday!
