Fundraiser auction for a great human being

In the past year I e-met lots of wonderful persons - and Tanya Boden of Fusion Muse is no exception.

We've met on and off on facebook, during various events, she remarkably volunteered to the herculean task of putting together a special website for the equally herculean Bead Soup #6... I read her blog articles with interest and participated in her Free Beads for Blogging event (yes, she does send you free beads! and yes, she's still doing it - you can visit her page and check).

Just 10 days ago, during the CBC de-stash event we got talking as she put more items for sale and I kept buying (you need to check her beauties, she has gemstones you don't usually find in the bead store!)

That's when I discovered she is sick and needs a transplant; but before that - she needs more tests to be done. She's a very positive energy and my heart broke, it seems lots of people I know have some troubles of some sort of another. She's such a sweet person and I hope we'll have many years to chat, maybe visit - but her race is against time.

Besides sending prayers and love - there is more that can be done. A Facebook group has been created, with a fundraiser to help her get the help she needs. This is your chance to 'Pay it Forward'.

Below are the details for the auction - I hope you will visit and help our lovely Tanya!

be placed on a transplant list.
