For those of you who don't know, things have gone from bad to worse for Hellen and Innocent. Hellen is still recovering from malaria, and Innocent has been injured in an accident. They are both recovering but now homeless. The hospital bills and being without work have been too much to keep up with. Hellen has been living in a part of the school that has not been finished. Of course, she didn't want anyone to know and worry for her.

Because of the urgency of the needs in Uganda, these bracelets are on sale! You can get one of the beautiful handmade bracelets for only $2!!! Each one is unique, so it is first come first served. Send me an e-mail at heatherlecount@yahoo.com telling me which bracelets you want. I will confirm that they are all still available. Then, I will give you a total price including shipping and send you an invoice. These would make great gifts, and they can even fit in with a letter!! And, for the bracelets that don't have charms, you can get a charm added for no additional charge! I have the following charms available: "friends", Hello Kitty, "love", and "laugh".

I have more that I will post- It just takes time to get them photographed and posted. I will make another post with more bracelets within the next few hours. Feel free to not be specific. I can send you a mixture of several different bracelets, if you don't have a preference. I still have several that I have not photographed, so I can send some of those to anyone who does not want anything specific.

All of the proceeds will go to help Hellen and the rest of the women with what they need to survive. I, also, have plenty of necklaces available still, so please let me know if you are interested in those. Thank you for your support of Hellen and the rest of the MIC group!

Very Bad News for the MIC group!

Hellen is now homeless, and still trying to recover from the bought of malaria! Innocent, who had been running the MIC group for the past 4 months is not well either. He was in an accident and now has trouble walking.

Because of everything that is still going on, and the desperate situation of the whole group, I will posting some bracelets for sale soon. Please stay tuned!

MIC Group Update!

The MIC group has done pretty well with the sales on this blog. We have raised almost $200 in one month's time! I sent the last of the money from the sales yesterday- $60 plus the $8.55 wire fee. This money will be divided among the 30 women. I know there is still a long way to go, but the women and families are very appreciative of what we have done so far. Most of the bracelets have sold, so I will be posting more soon.

My temporary job is now over, so I will be able to catch up a little bit over the next few days. If you are still looking to purchase necklaces and bracelets, stay tuned for more great deals!

Hellen is doing much better now though she still feels dizzy. After several tests, the doctors have concluded that her pain is from her long battle with malaria, and with time she should feel better. She still needs to eat high protein food to help her body recover.

For those who don't know, Innocent (her brother) has been helping with everything MIC related while his sister has been sick. The last time I sent money, it was raining very hard and mud was every where. He had an accident and dislocated his hip bone! He has not been able to help with the group since then because now he is trying to heal!

All of this has kind of left everything up in the air as far as packages being sent and money being picked up. Once I knew that Hellen would be able to pick up a moneygram, I sent her the last of the money raised. She picked it up this morning.

Everything should slowly start getting back to normal. They both still have more recovery ahead, but at least they can do some things. I will keep everyone posted on any changes. Thank you for all you are doing for this group!
