They most need money, medical care and emotional support to survive the immediate future and later to rebuild. The Chinese govenment has changed the tactic for once and is accepting help from Red Cross and outside world. There are many organizations collecting money donations. I just hope these money will reach the victims and be used in the most needed places.Vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04391126553849547771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8917133528632772154.post-85555713556901656192008-05-23T08:20:00.000-04:002008-05-23T08:20:00.000-04:00When I read this I just had to laugh. . .Me Too!"L...When I read this I just had to laugh. . .Me Too!<BR/><BR/>"Lutheran and German, a sense of humor is not something I have in heaps."<BR/><BR/>Darn those Germans.

I have a package of baby hats and other items waiting for a donation destination. So if you hear of someone collecting to send to either China or Myanmar let me know and the Chicks will be glad to help out. And as for a coverup for Annemarie, try http://www.knittingdaily.com/register/reg_confirm.html?pattern_title=Comfort+Shawl&pattern_category=shawls_stoles&pattern_file=Comfort_Shawl.pdf&pattern_author=Sandi+Wiseheart Although it's not a shrug, it is a sweet little shoulder shawl that took me a week to knit up. I'll be keeping Annemarie in my prayers that she will be healthy.

Regarding Myanma...I'm sorry there's so much stress. <BR/><BR/>Regarding Myanmar, at least, I heard that DWB already had people on the ground, so monetary donations to them would at least help, but I agree that the people in the government refusing aid should be tied down in the sun and left to rot in their own feces and eaten alive by flies. But that's just my own personal opinion. <BR/><BR/>Much love to you.Kristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12122684978861247275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8917133528632772154.post-78561040995472651772008-05-16T11:04:00.000-04:002008-05-16T11:04:00.000-04:00Dear Karin - you are such a caring and giving pers...Dear Karin - you are such a caring and giving person! I want to help too . . if you find any way to contribute to either China or Myanmar, please let me know. Each time I think of the poor souls, I catch my breath and thank God for all of my blessings. Any way I can offer support, let me know. I can't fret over gas prices with such sadness in the world. Sharon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
