someone on my fb has just posted this:

The minister has been called in to Aillidh. There's no denying the severuty of her condition today. Pray. Intercede. Chant. Meditate. Beg. Whatever - just do something.

Sad

Praying for the whole family. x

psychomum5 · 29/06/2012 11:45

last updates were that Aillidh is currently stable but the minister has been called in.

I have sent a text just saying that there is love being channeled from so many.

Sending positive vibes and a big bundle of strength. So so sad Sad

I don't usually pray but am saying the Lord's Prayer with Ailidh and her family in mind

Chubfuddler · 29/06/2012 11:51

As far as I am concerned its a whip round to help the family in any way they see fit, and that includes giraffes.

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 29/06/2012 11:51

:( I am begging and praying. Life sure can be cruel......please let there be a miracle for her.

TequilaMockinBird · 29/06/2012 11:52

Just sent a little something via Paypal. Forgot to put it in the note but yes, it should also go towards giraffes helping the expats.

CherryMonster · 29/06/2012 11:54

i dont have any cash right now, but i would love to send a little gift of something i have made. also, does anyone know little Ailidh's birthstone please? xx

DowagersHump · 29/06/2012 11:55

Sending Aillidh, expat and family love and strength x

StealthPolarBear · 29/06/2012 11:56

Cherry that sounds lovely - A's birthday was a couple of weeks ago

WithACherryOnTop · 29/06/2012 11:59

Love and thoughts with all of the family,and Giraffes who is doing so much for them.

I'd appreciate if anyone could e-mail me the Paypal address.

WithACherryOnTop · 29/06/2012 12:00

Birthstones for June, are pearl,alexandrite and moonstone too.

Blu · 29/06/2012 12:00

Could I tactfully suggest that no-one pass on or post any update except the exact words from either Giraffes or Expat? The nuances of things can get altered in reporting from third parties, and speculation can be very intrusive.

May strength gather around Aillidh and her family.

NeverAgain2 · 29/06/2012 12:01

I am, of course more than happy for my (small I'm afraid) donation to be used however is best.

Love and prayers all round.

EmilieFloge · 29/06/2012 12:02

I don't want to say the wrong thing but I do wonder if posting every text and fb post from people is the right thing, as it seems to add to the general confusion...perhaps it would be best if only factual updates were posted here?
plus of course anything that Expat has asked to be posted on her behalf.
I just think it adds to the heightened drama which though I am aware the situation is horrendous, I am not sure if helpful.
Does anyone understand what I'm trying, badly, to say?

CherryMonster · 29/06/2012 12:03

right, well i intend making something with pearls and i have a lovely piece of moonstone, for expat to remember all the love that has been sent. also, i make clay bears, so would love to send one to expat for Ailidh, just a little something to say that i am thinking of them all.

blueberryboybait · 29/06/2012 12:03

Cherry her birthday is the 19th June.

Giraffe and all those supporting the family you are as much in our prayers as they are.

Sweet Aillidh keep fighting there is a whole world of people rooting for you.

timetoask · 29/06/2012 12:03

Praying for a little miracle. Wishing the whole family strength in this so very difficult time.

CherryMonster · 29/06/2012 12:05

oh, that is the day after ds2's. how old is she please?

Yes my donation was for the whole family I definitley include giraffes in that.

And I agree it's best to be careful of what updates are posted, giraffes and pyscomum are doing a good job keeping everyone up to date.

Still praying xx

SugarMeFingers · 29/06/2012 12:07

Have been following this thread and some of the others, sending my love and prayers. xxxx

HappySunflower · 29/06/2012 12:07

I agree, Emilie
At times like this texts etc can be misinterpreted very easily.
So, whilst we are all keen for information and updates, some caution needs to be exercised, I think.
