Today my grandmother would have been 88. In honor of the many things she did to help others, I am posting a few links to places you can donate money.
- American Hemochromatosis Society
All of these are wonderful ways to help organizations in need. I’m not sure how much my grandmother donated, but she once helped a family pay for medical bills while their child was on the dialysis machine. I went with her and sat with the boy. He wasn’t much older than I was, and my great-grandmother was also receiving dialysis at the time. She donated time to anyone who needed it and was always there to lend a helping hand. There are no words to ease the loss of a family member, but sometimes doing something in their honor helps. Hugs to everyone during this time of year.
