So I would like to share with you this heartfelt nominations and announce Karen Fahmer as an additional winner to the Mother's Day 2009 Contest!!
So I would like to share with you this heartfelt nominations and announce Karen Fahmer as an additional winner to the Mother's Day 2009 Contest!!
"I nominate this amazing woman and mom Karen Fahmer. I have actually only gotten the chance to meet with her in person once but have had several opportunities to talk with her over the phone and email. Karen has been through a lot this past year. Her son, Jacob, was born in January and passed away 138 days later in May from problems associated with Trisomy 18. She has chronicled their journey through her blog http://fahmer.blogspot.com/ and used it as an opportunity to help other mom's out there who have been through similar situations. She has visited several moms at the hospital or spoke with them over the phone. I am one of them as my son was stillborn in September of this year due to heart failure from a genetic disorder called Trisomy 13. She contacted me through a friend of a friend and was able to talk with me about things like no other mom could. She is currently pregnant with her 4th child. As you can she, she is gorgeous and I am sure she would love some glam pregnancy photos."
Thank you for the nomination!
