Two Droplets

Dear Readers,
I don’t exactly know how I stumbled on the following blog article this morning or why I know I must share this poor family’s story but, if you or anyone you know might know of anyone or anything that might help this family. Please, pass this on. Pass it on even if you don’t know how or why. Next, say a prayer and count your blessings. Make a conscious effort to be more grateful in your everyday lives. Finally, after you’ve done all of that, seriously think about the various substances that you use in your household. From the chemicals you use for cleaning to the foods you eat to the water you drink, even down to your personal hygiene products . It all matters.
Sincere Thanks!
