Baylie for Brains

by

I first blogged about Baylie in August of 2005, one year after the loss of a young friend to a brain tumor. Baylie’s disease is different from my friend’s, but her spirit is as strong and giving as his was. Baylie took her inspiration from Lance Armstrong’s bracelet campaign, and, with a little help from her friends, has so far been able to donate over $105,000 for Chiari and Psuedotumor research. Way to go, Baylie.

Visit her site, Baylie for Brains, to see how you can help, with a $5 donation for a bracelet, or maybe even by making some bracelets for them.

I miss you Matty B, and I love you!

    She is so adorable. I made a number of bracelets and sent them to her, but lack time now. For those who don’t have time, another option (other than buying one, which I did and turns out I actually know the person who made it :) but another option is to send supplies if you don’t have time to actually construct the bracelets yourself.
