please read

ps. the submission form on the website works fine so you can message me there. i will try to reply to you all within the next few days, sorry if there's a delay.

hi

would like to have a look at the website but couldn't find it on a google search,

A beautiful gesture :hug: Is there a way to view your website?

Hi Lauren,

Such a beautiful gesture.. I already have one :D Are you still having a working bee?? I haven't been on your website for a while, I will check it out now..

Tracey it should come up under Nicola's Tears..

awww there is so many sad stories *hugs* to you all

just to clarify there is no cost for postage or the bracelet - totally free.

the website is nicolastears dot weebly dot com

all addresses sent by 2pm Tuesday will be posted on Wednesday as a friend is coming around tomorrow to help me address them all ready to be sent out.

I'll send the rest throughout the week as I get time or ring in another friend to come and help me.

Lauren this is just an absolutely amazing gesture. How incredibly thoughtful of you. Thank you for doing this for these amazing women.

oh more updates. some bracelets are hand-beaded others aren't, they're just new bracelets. they will be given out randomly so i am sorry that you can't choose. though they're all given with love and special thoughts of supoprt *hugs*

my inbox on here can't take any more messages :( I can't even send any more and I need the msgs I have in there so I can't even make any more room. So you'll have to message me through the website - please include your postal address so your bracelet can be sent asap.

There's still PLENTY of bracelets at this stage so no need to worry that you'll miss out. Like I mentioned earlier, if I do run out I will try and get more. I've been very fortunate to have received lots of donations and it has been a work in progress with some being made a long time ago, i did have times where people would come to visit and i'd make them help me make bracelets!! - also a special mention to NaeNae from bellybelly btw who hand-beaded some too, they were so beautiful i cried :)

hey abby,

i didn't need to hold the workshop, got bracelets galore atm. i did have a few people come over and help though. ended up making 80-something plus have had donations of handmade ones. plus another donation of one hundred and something new ones.

hope you are doing ok atm, i had another look at your website today - you did such a good job for your boys. i often look at their photo on my site and think of you.

Thanks Lauren,

I have been a bit lazy with my site, I have had a bad month and don't really have the emotional strength to do anymore.. I still haven't finished my story yet. That is my biggest goal, but seems to be the most difficult.. I will get there so keep checking in :D

Thank-you Lauren, i received my bracelet today- its gorgeous and i wear it with pride.

Thank-you
xoxo

Hi Lauren

I have sent you an e-mail. I love the web site. It is so beautiful. The poems, especially the last one, about the lies that mothers tell, made me cry for ages. It is just so true. We do say we are alright when really we are still heartbroken and empty inside. I hope the bracelets provide some comfort all of the mothers of angel babies on Mothers Day. What a wonderful thing you are doing - you're amazing!

Cheryl

Hi Lauren,

Thankyou so much, i received my bracelet yesterday and it is gorgeous !

Will definitely wear it in honour of my angel.

A big thanks to Leanne who donated it.

xxxxooooo

i just want to say i think its amazing and truely wonderful what your doing

also i cant get to your web site, would love to have a look

Hi Lauren,

I just want to say what a beautiful you are doing here. I lost my princess to SIDS in novenber last yr. She was 5mths when she was taken from me :( Sadly her case is being used to further push SIDS education, i know its a good thing, but it makes me so sad that she had to go first to make this happen.

I have meet many ppl now along the way that have lost their children, for all different reasons. What you are doing will put a smile upon their face, even if its only for 5minutes, its still very very worth it.

You are a lovely person to be doing this,

Racheal

PS, please feel free to hav a look at my angels group page, the more that read her story, the more i hope to create awareness.

I would like to give you a huge hug and a thank you for my bracelet. It has come at a great time as I am now at the same gestation in this pregnancy as I was when I lost Noah... this bracelet means so much and it is so beautiful and I can't stop looking at it. Thank you :hug:

Lauren what a wonderful thing to do for hurting mothers. You are an angel!

awww thanks but i don't do it for the kudos. it was therapy for me at the start when i first started the website, i wanted something good to come out of my friend's loss as i just couldn't make sense of it all. i'm starting to brainstorm ideas for mother's day 2010. maybe the handwritten letters will be nice. needs to be something light and easy/cheap to post as well as cheap to purchase or easy to get donations of. any ideas?

if i haven't been in touch with you or you haven't received your bracelet in a week's time please get in touch with me so i can check if i've posted it.

as for the thanks to Leanne can i do a big shout out to her as she helped me put all the bracelets into bags with the pieces of paper and into the enevelopes so all i have to do when i get an email is put someone's address on the front, pop a stamp on and put it in the post. saves me HEAPS of time. we spent 2 hours doing that and if i had to do it alone it would've been 4 hours - she is an absolute LEGEND!!

still lots of bracelets left over so feel free to get in touch with me, i've cleared up space on my bellybelly inbox of you can leave a visitor message saying "please pm me" and i'll get back to you asap.

Lauren, what a wonderful thing you are doing! Thank you for helping others

I have just emailed you...is your inbox still too full though?
